Think I have brain- neurological damage. Almost c/t after 17 years sertraline. Feelin hopeless and sick 1,5 years off. That its permanent damage.

"All that we have are observational studies". So, comparing. If all of us had known that, we would've never given informed consent. All of these hypothesis cannot connect coherently. So, the Chemical Imbalance theory is moot and not evidence-based. We didn't know that either. @ 1:10:00 EXACT SAME WITH ME. I was on 5, now I'm on 4. I literally payed $400 for an ADHD assessment because I thought I had ADHD. No. It was the 5 different Psychotropic Pharmaceuticals. I was so unwell, that I had forgotten what I was like before these Pharmaceuticals or when I was just on 1 - Pristiq. The 50mg Pristiq seemed to have stopped working or something: brain-fog, extreme fatigue increasing over time, pain increasing over time, bottom of feet pain increasing over time, forgetfulness, word-recall, memory issues, cognition issues, confusion, etc. ie: a literal brain injury. And I kept getting injured in my muscles/tendons/ligaments/spine. It didn't make any sense WHATSOEVER. I had to learn this BY MYSELF and not from a fucking doctor. I'm still stuck on 4 now, and I'm still needing to get off of this shit safely and get my life back. I'm really enjoying Dr Mark Horrowitz's recordings. I found him and Joanna Moncrieff and all of the other whistleblowers earlier this year from BeyondMeds and SurvivingAntiDepressants and MadInAmerica. I've taken out lots of books from the library from Peter Breggins and Robert Whitaker and others. All of this confirms what I suspected all along: it's the pharmaceuticals. Not me.

Benzos are a ticket to hell . A ride no one wants to take. Domt be a study

This is literally insane. ME/CFS is literally because of these Pharmaceuticals (if you've yet to contract COVID-19 yet). I recently learned that, and it explains everything. Thank you for mentioning it. @ 56:00 - yup! Dr Joseph talks about this, as well. Your friends/family will think this, too. "Withdrawal is relapse." lolno.

What a great person.

I don’t know how I stumbled across this video but thank you!! I haven’t talked to anyone about my own experience of going through this hell 10 years ago. I remember my doctor in the 90s telling me that SSRIs weren’t addictive. Well, so much for that. Coming off was an extraordinarily awful experience, indescribable to anyone who hasn’t been through it. It was traumatic. Eventually another dr put me on Mirtazapine which helped me to sleep- and function. I came off that a few months later with minimal problems. I lost a good 18 months of my life. I now stay away from all doctors and I don’t trust any medication. I heal myself.

How do you find a Dr that is knowledgeable in this. Clearly the one that prescribed it doesn’t know.

When you in process of stopping antidepressants, start taking brahmi to avoid withdrawal symptoms.

No MD needed ever.

I’m so cynical. I would love to see the clinical trial information that the drug companies withheld.

11 years on. Im still stuck on escitalapram. Thought id die when tried to come off 5 years ago. Had to jump back on. The symptoms were horrific. I feel trapped.

I've wanted to see Eiko speak live about this stuff for a while. So lovely to see this video!

2 months off paxil..after 27 years. Yes 27 years! I went through hell getting off. But I am starting to see the light at end of tunnel.

Thank you so much🙏🙏❤❤🥺🥺🥺

Do not go to the doctor unless you're dying

I split pills and entered a world of pain with no point of reference. I was a stimulated, driven human 10 years ago before i took escitalopram. Currently at 7.5mg using liquid form ... every 0.5g change is torture

is nausea in the morning and high blood pressure 2 months after stopping lexapro a withdrawal symptoms?

"Withdrawal effects can be misclassified as a relapse." Thank you for nailing it! I highly suspect this also goes for anti-psychosis meds.(...) I have seen this happen i n someone I care about. When it comes to ritalin, its nothing compared to anti depressants, specially some of them. The brain zaps, the crying, the headache, the dizziness...all from anti-depessants. The ritalin withdrawal is just going back to a messy, confused, Introverted and easily tired state with time-management issues and forgetfullness... trouble getting started or stopping stuff. Cleaning the house gets difficult right away. It feels like time goes slower. In the beginning I used to crave food too but now I am on Wegovy, so don't notice it . But temporary going off ritalin is usually not horrible, but it depends on the acute situation, ofcourse. A fantastic interview! Thank you so much, Riot science club, for putting this things into words and adressing issues that's been on our minds for more then 40 years.

I’ve been on Amitriptyline and Quetiapine for insomnia for 15 years. I was prescribed by a nurse-practitioner psychologist after going through divorce, fears of layoff and the 2008 Great Recession. My couldn’t sleep and the SSRIs helped me. Now that I am retired life is much calmer and I don’t have the pressures of work and finances. I’ve tried a couple times to wean myself off the anti depressants and am now completely off but still having trouble getting to sleep for weeks so I turned to CBD/THC/CBN gummies at night as it is legal where I live. These can also be habit forming so I have to take a break on these soon. The first time I took a gummy I was very relaxed but still very wide awake. On the second or third night of the gummies I was able to feel seriously drowsy and sleep within 70 minutes. This may help others. I’ll let you know how I progress. Good luck everyone ❤

Addicted to xanax . The withdrawal feels Like pure hell . I m so scared . Im ruined for my life ?

15 years of 20 mg Paroxetine tapered over 2 months… felt ok then a month later all hell broke loose. Burning skin, manic thoughts, most definitely becuse my brain wasn’t able to make enough serotonin. went back on to 10 mg, will go so much slower this time.

You didn’t mention nightmares on Prozac

I’m having Paxil withdrawals and I’m asking my doctor to put me on Celexa because this is too much. I’ve never felt this way in my life. Luckily tomorrow I can pick up my Ambien.

Why beat around the bush..... Big pharma drives the machine from them to the public. If they are not truthful with the effects of many of the drugs that are so easily obtained, their will be no solution to hidden and misimformation from big pharma. All they are concerned about is the bottom line. Until their is transparancy their will never be an end of these acts of deceptions. Their is too much money and corruption in BIG PHARMA.... That is the huge problem in this subject...

Does everyone get these serious withdrawal symptoms or is it a certain percentage only?

Who tf takes antidepressants for 15 yrs

Hi, is it safe to stop taking zoloft (25 mg) completely without any tapering after taking it for only 7 days? Thanks

So what do you do for patients who are severely mentally ill and need medications ?

I tried going off 200mg/day Sertraline twice so far. First time, cold turkey. 3 months later, had to go back on meds, was extremely depressed and had dark thoughts. Second time, tapered off about 10% per month for about a year. Also, mixed in microdosing. About 3 months after being off Sertraline again, started getting extremely emotional, crying every day. Then, the panic attacks started, never had that before in my life. They became more frequent. Made a mistake and did a macro dose with an underground person. The experience was indescribable, but afterwards, started having 24 hour panic attacks with almost no sleep for 3 weeks. Was close to ending up in the emergency room, was losing touch with reality. Started Sertraline and Wellbutrin again, gradually felt better and better. Stopped all meds again a few weeks later, in hopes of trying out MDMA or Ketamine therapy. I was told I wasn’t a good candidate for either 😢. Now, back on meds again.

thanks for this video ,its given me a wee bit of hope that the problems with these pills are being recognised by someone Thank you Dr H

I am 18 months into trying to taper off 15mg of amitrptiline initially I dropped way too fast and had what looked like manic episodes but were just withdrawal. I'm now tapering way more slowly.. like 0.2-0.5ml per month which I can tolerate. The headaches and insomnia are unbearable. Highly recommend out the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines book - best money I've ever spent. Every doctor should have a copy. Thanks for this interview it is nice to felt "seen" by a doctor for a change.

I find it, startling that you never looked that information up yourself

CLONAZEPAM is good for panic attacks. 1 mg afternoon after a meal. If you can not sleep, 2 mg of CLONAZEPAM will help.

This is not advice meds have changed my life, he was on 5 meds at once and wonders why he had issues

Went turkey last 2 weeks and the withdrawal symptoms started to hit me yestetdav,it’s so tough.Getting brain zaps,brain fog,migraine,panic attacks,insomnia,nausea,nightmares.It’s so crazy.Gonna push through it regardless.If I knew it’s this bad if rather not took SSRI in the first place

I came off after 12 years! I just stopped them because I knew they where doing nothing you need to think positive I’m 6 months off your brain will heal just give it time but think positive! It’s you in control!!

Thank you for putting this online for those of us who could not make it live

I'm just asking for advice please. I have been off of Paroxetine 60mg for 9 months now I took them for three years. I did a silly taper from 60mg to 0 in about one month, much too quick. I'm going through Protracted Withdrawal and it's a nightmare, I'm waking up very early with anxiety and hot flushes. My question is, if you was in my position, would you reinstate and do a more slower taper or would you just battle on and deal with the withdrawal symptoms daily. I have no idea when this Hell is going to end though. If anybody has been in this situation, can you please advise how things went for you. Thanks.

Excellent informative video! Super necessary! ❤ ET! Thank you! Good luck everybody you are not alone!

I'm dying every day. I was on many drugs for my OCD and then they misdiagnosed me with bipolar put me on many other drugs my life is over. It's been six months. I am off my meds, but it's like nightmare😢 Akhatisia,anhedonia, cognitive impairment, insomnia, DPDR, racing thoughts, and severe mood swings،Hyper sensitive nervous system. Hyper salivation,horrofic nightmare. I'm getting worse every day. I can't take it anymore 😢😢 I really want to live, but I can't take it anymore. I am so close to suside everyday.

I hugely benefited.. and now I’m stopping it..

I took lexapro for 11 months. My taper was over a 2 month period. Then symptoms returned a year later. Then tried Effexor for two months the and weaned off for two weeks. Still experiencing anxiety and mild depression. Am I in withdrawal?

Well meaning GPs handing these terrible medications like sweeties. Its a disgrace, abhorrent especially with history repeating itself after the benzos. I went on them for mild depression 17 years ago. I have just tapered off over 12 months, and am 6 months clean. Still struggling with moid swings, irritability, stress, anxiety and because of all that the depression has returned. Ill never trust a gp again and i always refuse when they try and peddle me something which they will do, without fail for every single ailment going. What's worrying is that I seem to be more informed than they are.

I refuse antidepressants for exactly this reason I prefer pain over the effects of antidepressants

Just don't take anti depression pills they don't work its a chemical cosh
