Kim Witczak: "I learned the hard truth of how the highly conflicted drug approval process works in the US after the sudden death of my husband in an antidepressant induced suicide in 2003. He was prescribed Zoloft, the safe effective FDA approved SSRI off-label for insomnia.

Five weeks later, he took his own life.

My husband's death catapulted me into a world of drug safety. As my late husband always used to say, 'just follow the money.'

In 2016, I was formally appointed to the, as Consumer Representative on the FDA."
