I hadn’t heard of him until I recently watched a discussion he did (can also be watched without YouTube’s ads here), with a guy whose work I’ve been looking at. The guy in question is called Dr Mark Horowitz and he’s a training psychiatrist, and I think he passed med school and he did a PhD.
Anyway, a lot of this guy’s work is looking at withdrawal symptoms from antidepressants, and they talk about that. E.g. how withdrawals can be pretty severe for a lot of people, especially people who have been on them for years. Some people can take a year or more to come off antidepressants, slowly reducing the dose over that time.
Yes this community is about therapy, and antidepressants are a tangential topic. But still related to therapy and mental health topics. Perhaps the video I linked to is not of interest to you, fair enough if so. I found it interesting because I have tried different solutions for my own mental health, including counselling, and antidepressants. It’s interesting to find out more about antidepressants and potentially other solutions for mental health problems.
