      Their med caused brain damage when you stop which ramps up your symptoms and creates new ones you didn’t have before, which makes you go back on more meds. Conveniently they don’t bother studying what happens after you stop them and if your brain gets damaged when you do. It’s just a phenomenon in the dark and a hidden hand that creates more demand for their meds.

    Thank you for this information. I just did my week of hell going cold turkey off opioids. The effexor 150mg is my next challenge. This info is super helpful. Im convinced 20 years on this medication was the reason for multiple bone surgeries failing to heal over the past few years ie inflammatory markers.

      Cold turkey off of which opioid? How redoing today?

      Coming off Effexor has to be slow! Take a couple of grains a week, can take up to six months or more.

      Sorry take out 2 grains at a time.

    Bead counting isn't humorous to those of us doing it because we can't get help from mainstream medicine. Most functional medicine doctors will not be covered by medical insurance. Who are you laughing at exactly? The current medical model, including psychiatry, has failed people like me. That sir is no laughing matter.😢

    Great video doc!! want to add some input re: BH2 & BH4. QDPR genes. Essential to test patient for BH2 recycling capacity as well... 5-MTHFR snps play a big role in BH2 to BH4 recycling. Low BH4 will massively disrupt amino acid conversion to dopamine, serration, Nitric Oxide production as well as l-Phenylalanine buildup and elevated PEA levels. This being the reason to use 5-HTP vs L-Tryptophan

    I've been on Citalopram for 21 years. I have tried reducing but never been successful. GP's are lacking knowledge to support people with any level of decrease so we are stuck on the medication, supposedly for life?! Will return to this again. Thank you for the insights and information.

    What stops the vertigo/floaty feeling/loss of balance? I take in Thorne B Complex, fish oil, mag, D, probiotic, diet, sauna, run, weights, sleep you name it

    I take all these supplements and started a very slow taper and still had withdrawal symptoms. If serotonin receptors have been pruned due to having an excess of serotonin in the synapse from extended ssri use supplements will not cause them to immediately regrow.

    Misdiagnosed and overprescribed….It’s a perfect business model for big business 🙄 Most patients find it to hard to get off so they stay on them for life. $$$$
