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.
