Seems too unfocused and jumping around between different issues. There seemed to be no conclusions to the people's stories who were taking part of the documentary. Started out not bad, but eventually as a viewer you had no idea where you were. No story arc. No clear journey for each of the film's characters.
Every time they hit on something that might make the viewer question the Xanax drug they came back to reassure us that these drugs were a good thing. And at the end they slip in positive information about SSRI's without mentioning the mountains of critical information on those.
The trials for many of these pills were conducted only on the short term, which to me makes the drug companies criminals. You should not be legally allowed to prescribe a person a brain altering mainstream medical drug long term if said drug was never studied long term. I also question how the companies who make the profit from the drug are allowed to be the one who tests the drug for themselves? That's not how safety testing works in the motor industry. How this charade is set up is ripe for cutting corners and lying with statistics. I mean, we're talking about companies here who've been fined billions many times.
If you want to watch a better anti-psych tablets documentary watch Medicating Normal. It's a proper documentary.
