Healy, David. Let Them Eat Prozac The Unhealthy Relationship between the Pharmaceutical Industry and Depression. New York New York University Press, 2004. The psychiatrist author prescribed Prozac when it first came out but found that many patients who took it became agitated and a few attempted suicide. His book reviews the history of Prozac and similar antidepressants, describes the controversies over the drugs, and ultimately criticizes the pharmaceutical industry for overstating the benefits and minimizing—or hiding—the risks.

How is it that the chemical-imbalance theory was proposed and so widely accepted, when the only controlled scientific study that had been done indicated that one could relieve depression, rather than induce it, by giving patients a drug that increases brain levels of monoamines David Healy, in his comprehensive treatise on the history of antidepressants, provides an answer to this question.19 The study was simply ignored, despite having been published in The Lancet, one of the world s most prestigious medical journals.

Several authors, including David Healy, have suggested that the induction of suicidal ideas is related to the ability of SSRIs to induce... 

Although it was only a model, the idea of kindling superficially appeared to provide a disease-specific justification for the use of anticonvulsants in manic depression. It also opened up the possibility of defining a sort of drug that would reduce emotional reactivity, in the same way that anticonvulsants are believed to reduce the brain s nervous excitability. In this sense kindling gave birth to the notion of a mood stabiliser. However as David Healy has pointed out, it was not until Abbott laboratories started to research and market sodium valproate for manic depression that the idea of a mood stabiliser really took root (Healy 2006).
