Comments on: Wrongful Death Lawsuit Alleges Suicide From Yaz and Claravis http://www.aboutlawsuits.com/lawsuit-alleges-suicide-from-yaz-and-claravis-6746/ News and Information about Personal Injury Lawsuits Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:05:41 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Loretta http://www.aboutlawsuits.com/lawsuit-alleges-suicide-from-yaz-and-claravis-6746/comment-page-1/#comment-13920 Loretta Thu, 04 Mar 2010 02:13:48 +0000 http://www.aboutlawsuits.com/?p=6746#comment-13920 Oh my God, I cannot believe what I just read about this case. My husband and I have been going through the worst nightmare with our teenage daugter. The past two weeks have been the worst. My Daugter started taking Yaz in May of 2008. She went her whole Freshman year very sad, emotional and would get very angry easily. She started seeing a Phyciatrist and was then prescribed Prozac in July of 2009. The Prozac worked for about a month then stopped working. The Doctor kept increasing the dosage. As the dosage increased her suicide thoughts increased. We have been monitoring her constanly. I decided to create a time-line to try to figure out what may have caused the change in her life. She never had mental problems and was extremely happy with life and did very well in school. She has since then missed so much school and cannot get out of bed and talks constantly about the pain she is in and how she wants to end her life. Two weeks ago we stopped the Prozac. Two days ago we stopped the Yaz. I truly believe this all started because of the Yaz. I am deeply sorry to read about Autumn's suicide. I cannot imagine going through the pain of losing a child. Just reading my daughter's suicide letter was painful enough. I truly hope that the word gets out and Doctors stop prescribing this drug. Oh my God, I cannot believe what I just read about this case.
