Just Say Go
From Fayetteville (NC) Online:
RALEIGH — The Fayetteville man accused of killing a co-worker last week in the VA hospital pharmacy was being treated for bipolar disorder, an FBI agent testified in U.S. District Court on Monday.
Arthur James Charland, 42, is being held without bail on a charge of first-degree murder in the shooting death of Linda Faye Owens, with whom he had an 11-year affair.
Charland later told agents that he needed his prescription for Effexor when they asked him whether there was anything he wanted while he remained in custody, Hedges said.
“The doctor called him bipolar, but he doesn’t like to take the medication because of its side effects,” Hedges said.
The drug is an antidepressant used to treat bipolar disorder. Common side effects include anxiety, nervousness and dizziness.
The side effects of not taking the medication? Murdering someone. So, yeah, take yer frickin' meds, and stop whining.
