CCHR Documentary Investigates Psychiatric Drugs in Violence, Suicide Cases

CCHR's two-hour film compiles global data and expert testimony linking psychiatric drug use to violence and suicide, citing over 100 high-profile cases worldwide.

  • On Dec. 15, 2025, the Citizens Commission on Human Rights posted the two-hour documentary Prescription for Violence: Psychiatry's Deadly Side Effects on the CCHR website from Los Angeles, Calif.
  • CCHR argues that profit incentives and rising prescribing rates prompted the film, contending regulators and prescribers often overlook drug risks while profits expand drug use.
  • Regulatory data cited in the film indicate 634 warnings worldwide, including 49 about violence, 70 about suicide, and incidents causing 532 deaths and 973 injuries.
  • Jan Eastgate, President of CCHR International, urged consumers, families, physicians, and policymakers to watch Prescription for Violence and noted the NIH/CDC investigation announced earlier this year makes the film timely.
  • Andy Vickery, Texas trial lawyer, highlights a $6.4 million Wyoming jury verdict and regulator warnings in Australia and Germany, while Thomas Insel notes suicide remains the third leading cause of death for Americans aged 15 to 25.
