Antidepressants causing anger rage and suicidal tendencies

I started taking luvox antidepressants years ago and have noticed my personality changing, primarily what I think about. I started thinking violent thoughts and would get angry about the slightest things. The angry emotions would lead me to dwelling on thoughts of violence even killing someone. These thoughts never occured before I started the antidepressants. I became alarmed as it was causing me and my family to argue all the time about stupid things. One night after arguing with my wife I retreated to the study and decided to look up the side affects of luvox and was shocked to find some information that said people on luvox can get angry and violent with the people around them. It also mentioned that the boys that went into the school with guns and killed all there class mates were found to have been taking luvox. I also felt like killing myself alot, but just didn't have the guts to go through with it. I would get really angry and think of hurting someone and then I would think I don't want to hurt anyone I just want to kill myself before I do. I tried to get off the tablets before, but if I reduced them I would get massive withdrawal symptoms, and get a major swing of depression and black outs and brain zaps.

I found out that tryptophan (natural amino acid that is found in food) can be used as a natural antidepressant, but shouldn't be taken with anti depressants. So I thought I would start with a small dose of tryptophan and cut a small peice of my pill off. I did that and started to feel a bit better. After i did this for a week or so until I felt stable I would then increase the dose of tryptophan and further decrease the antidepressant. It took me a couple of months to get off the antidepressants, and couple of weeks of feeling a bit of a dizzy head. But I am now completely off the antidepressants, and have found I don't get angry or depressed anymore. I don't get suicidal thoughts or thoughts of violence, I am a different person, the one I remember I was when I was young. I regularly laugh and am optimistic and my wife has really noticed the difference and we are getting on a whole lot better. Since I have been off the antidepressants we haven't had a single argument.

Tryptophan in australia is hard to get because there was a ban on it years ago. What happened was that a dodgy factory in Japan made a contaminated batch of Tryptophan that had some bad effects on people and killed a few people. The authorities thought it was the tryptophan and consequently banned it, however later they found it was because the batch was contaminated and it wasn't the tryptophan. The government had since looked for other alternatives to tryptophan, that is when antidepressant drugs became popular and every body forgot about the effectiveness of Tryptophan. I brought some off the internet as you can to, it is my opinion the better alternative. It can be cheap to if you buy it in bulk, have a search on the internet.
