Those side effects are completely different from the statement you made and the implication you made by citing mass shooters. I'm not one to overuse my credentials, but I will say this is a field in which I'm pretty well trained and educated. There are no reputable studies indicating that SSRIs directly contribute to violent behavior or exist as anything other than a correlation and your shoehorned reference to mass shooters is a common card the right plays when trying to minimize medication in mental health treatment. In bipolar patients, SSRIs can trigger hypomanic or manic episodes with an indirect link to aggression because of the irritability or lessened impulse control. Among all antidepressants, SSRIs actually carry the lowest risk of triggering these episodes at about 3.7%.
