72. The Antidepressant Paradox
About this episode
Millions of people have taken antidepressant drugs. Many experience adverse side effects such as Akathisia and Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (PSSD). Some believe the drug saved their life. If antidepressant drugs are harmful, why do they continue to be prescribed? On today’s podcast Dr. Roger McFillin responds to the anecdotal reports of antidepressant benefits.
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT STOP YOUR ANTIDEPRESSANTS SUDDENLY OR TOO FAST.
If you are in a crisis or think you have an emergency, call your doctor or 911. If you're
considering suicide, call 1-800-273-TALK to speak with a skilled trained counselor.
