Could selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) trigger violent and even homicidal behavior? Which non-drug treatments can be effective against depression?
There were 656* mass shootings in America in 2023 according to the Gun Violence Archive (GVA). This up from 272 mass shootings in 2014 when the GVA began logging data.
Amid the gun rights versus gun control debate, some have pointed to SSRI antidepressants as a potential trigger for mass shootings.
Can antidepressants fuel violent behavior? When can antidepressants do more harm than good?
Today, Dr. Jingduan Yang MD joins Vital Signs with Brendon Fallon to probe these and other aspects of treating depression.
If the “patient has trouble metabolizing the SSRI…that can cause so called serotonin syndrome - Basically, people get disoriented from [other] people, places, and time,” says Dr. Yang highlighting one lesser known side effect of SSRIs.
Dr Yang is a psychiatrist and integrative medicine doctor who combines western medicine with traditional Chinese medicine. As such he is experienced in non-pharmaceutical treatments of depression.
In this Vital Signs episode he discusses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), ketamine, acupuncture and other methods that he uses to treat depression in his own practice.
*The Gun Violence Archive (GVA) defines a mass shooting as when four or more people are shot in one location at around the same time.

I was on them years ago and it made everything worse and yes very suicidal, but I opened the door which was Jesus Christ who, as it says in Isaiah 9:6,FOR UNTO US A CHILD IS BORN, UNTO US A SON IS GIVEN, AND THE GOVERNMENT SHALL BE UPON HIS SHOULDERS, AND HIS NAME SHALL BE CALLED, WONDERFUL, COUNCILOR, THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER, THE PRINCE OF PEACE.
The great Prince of Peace and The Great Councilor stepped in to my life in a way He never had before and my life has never been the same.
He cast the demons out of me that I didn't even understand that I had and set me free completely, I have never thought of suicide in 28 years 🙌🙌🙌
