Felix's Suicide Likely Caused by Prednisone
9 years ago
General
Okay so I'm going out on a serious limb here but I've been doing some research and thinking a lot of about 
felixpath's suicide and came to a very shocking revelation: I think the Prednisone he was subscribed caused his suicide.
I've been reading on a LOT of personal stories about using Prednisone and a bunch of them, namely these two:
https://www.peoplespharmacy.com/201.....ith-the-devil/
https://www.drugs.com/answers/presc.....gs-575095.html
and they all state emotional changes and issues including depression and suicidal thoughts. THEN I went back and read Felix's past journals and LOW AND BEHOLD On his Oct. 2nd journal update he states:
"I'm not sure if curing this will be easy after so long. The ENT doctor gave me a full course of antibiotics and Prednisone. They did absolutely nothing. No improvement. I need to call the doctor tomorrow and try to find out what the next drug or treatment is. There are more powerful antibiotics out there, and there are surgical procedures. I'll settle for anything in order to feel well and normal again."
THAT IN ITSELF just made me cringe and shudder and yet well up with anger. Did they warn him about the risks and side effects of depression!? I don't know and can't say for sure but it's a pretty solid link that it's quite possible this drug to make him feel better ended up costing us all a dear friend. SO if you know anyone who uses PREDNISONE please let them know the risks, or keep an eye on them or ANYTHING!

whether if this is the reason or not its horrible and it would be horrible to think such 'meds' would make things worseto such an extreme level. *sighs* ive always said most doctors seem useless these days.
Do we know anything about for how long and at what time Felix was taking the Prednisone? His journal of Oct 3rd sounds more like he was dissatisfied with the action of Predisone, so wouldn't he stop taking it at that time?
