[It can be very dangerous to come off #psychiatric #medications. It must be done slowly & while under physician supervision. In addition to the likelihood of symptoms returning, coming off an #SSRI can cause severe physical #withdrawal, some of which may never dissipate making it impossible for the patient to ever totally stop the medication. #SerotoninWithdrawalSyndrome can be debilitating; symptoms include severe dizziness, nausea, loss of balance, & frequent vomiting.]

Death of a patient with mental illness at Shattuck Hospital raises allegations of ‘neglect’
by Jenifer B. McKim, May 08, 2023, Updated August 07, 2023
"A 60-year-old Black man committed to #LemuelShattuck Hospital’s #psychiatric ward died a 'painful, untimely death' due in part to the state’s failure to provide adequate health care, according to a report released Monday.
"#HaywoodEarl, residing at the public hospital in Jamaica Plain, likely would have survived his bout with skin cancer if he’d received a timely diagnosis and appropriate medical treatment, the nonprofit Disability Law Center concluded in a 28-page report."
[...]
"Earl’s case is coming to light nearly two months after an investigation by the #GBH News Center for Investigative Reporting revealed a history of problems at the hospital, documented by patients, prisoners and former employees."
