Man I trust you WAY more than any other doctor, i would hope that the successive generations of psychiatrists emulate or learn from your knowledge but particularly your attitude. I would love to have your insight in my life processes.
As someone with ME/CFS, I always find your videos informative 😊 There's such widespread and unjustified ignorance amongst most medics. It's very disheartening (no pun intended!)
What kind of damage can be done from antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anti-anxiety drugs? They can have all kinds of terrible side-effects and i have never experienced a more crippling depression and feeling of terror/impending doom like i did when coming off those poisons. Not to mention the constant "brain-zaps", racing heart, and complete lack of sleep for days... i was awake for over 500 hours when i was cut off cold-turkey from all my meds, the akathisia, sleep deprivation, and psychosis it caused was really damaging, i honestly don't know how I'm still alive.
Sorry to hear? What was the reason for being abruptly cut off? Usually medications should be tapered to avoid withdrawals and rebound phenomena. Psychiatric medications are not unique here - PPIs, opioids for pain, clonidine for hypertension, steroids all have similar phenomena.
So interesting and glad science is focusing on this. It’s a long time coming honestly. I think of a heart brain disconnection like first episode psychosis and melancholia and negative symptoms. It’s almost like stroke, heart failure, terrible treatment resistant anxiety or depression in schizophrenia is how I think of this disconnection. Obviously a lot of people are dealing with similar issues nowadays because of longCOVID. Treatments that restore heart function like focused ultrasound or vagus nerve stimulation should be more considered. Thanks for the video :)
Yes partly - I've covered in the first part of the video - Noradrenaline plus neuropeptide Y. In addition immune cells move towards the myocardium to repair and mount an inflammatory response to repair - this can go wrong in some people. But the first part - of increased sympathetic activity is considered to be a key factor - neurogenic stunning myocardium. Thanks for your generosity. 🙏🏼

Can using antidepressants like vortioxetine help lower neuroinflammation and stabilize automatic function?
There is evidence of vortioxetine doing this but of course it depends on multiple other factors - pre-existing illness, severity, sleep etc
Dr. Rege-is it true that “broken heart syndrome” is caused by an excess of catecholamines? ❤🔥
