The article isn't bunk. SSRI's can cause serious sleep problems, and should not be prescribed at anything like the rate that they are being prescribed today.
I find it ironic that one of the drugs used to control SSRI-induced RBD- clonazepam- is considered a 'bad' drug that the SSRI's were designed to replace. I heard someone say recently, "Xanax is a band-aid, Paxil is a cure.' An absurd statement.
There is reason to be cautious about the use of any psychotropic. I wonder if I'm inflicting glutaminergic damage on my brain by taking Provigil, but I have to get through the day.
