	Psych Meds Took My Son's Life: A Mother's Tribute to Tre	16 Dec 2025	01:00:37
Send us a text The moment you think you’re doing the right thing for your child’s mental health can be the moment everything turns. Sheila joins us to tell Tre’s story—a 25‑year‑old nurse, athlete, and gentle soul whose life unraveled in a matter of months after a cascade of psychiatric prescriptions, missed medical workups, and a system that documented his suicidality yet never built a safety plan. We start where too few clinicians do: the biology. Tre’s persistently low testosterone never received proper endocrine evaluation. Instead, treatment pivoted to antidepressants and mood stabilizers. Rage appeared within days of the first medication, then the list grew: Cymbalta, Effexor, lamotrigine, Ativan, buspirone, Vyvanse—paired with a doubling of testosterone. The result was a storm of side effects: personality changes, violent outbursts he couldn’t recall, intense restlessness that looked like akathisia, and sexual dysfunction consistent with PSSD. Records show he repeatedly reported feeling suicidal. What’s missing is even louder: no safety planning, no calls to the person he lived with, and telehealth check-ins so short they could never capt Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Mark Horowitz: My Own Withdrawal Rewrote the Science Behind Hyperbolic Tapering	09 Dec 2025	00:56:34
Send us a text What if the hardest part of coming off an antidepressant isn’t the first cut, but the last milligrams? We sit down with Dr. Mark Horowitz—clinician, researcher, and someone who’s been through withdrawal himself—to unravel why standard advice fails, how the brain adapts to medication, and what a safer exit really looks like. Mark shares his first taper attempt after 13 years on Lexapro, a methodical plan that still crashed into panic, derealization, and hours of daily terror. That lived shock led him to survivingantidepressants.org, hyperbolic tapering, and ultimately co-authoring the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines and national guidance in the UK. We dig into the science behind tolerance and homeostasis, the neuroimaging that explains why tiny doses can have big effects, and the practical tools—liquid formulations and small percentage reductions—that let people step down without falling off a cliff. We also take on the evidence base. Most psychiatric drug trials are short, yet millions stay on meds for years. Stopping studies often confuse withdrawal with relapse, inflating claims for maintenance.

	Blowing the Lid off the Chemical Imbalance Myth with Dr Joanna Moncrieff	02 Dec 2025	01:01:32
Send us a text The story you’ve been told about depression is tidy, catchy, and comforting—and it doesn’t match the evidence. We sit down with Professor Joanna Moncrieff to unpack why the “chemical imbalance” narrative took hold, what her 2022 umbrella review actually found about serotonin, and how a drug-centered lens helps us make wiser choices about antidepressants. Instead of assuming pills fix a faulty brain, we look at how psychoactive drugs alter consciousness—sometimes helpful in crisis, often numbing across the emotional spectrum—and what that means for informed consent. Joanna walks us through the gap between early, hyped studies and larger research that failed to replicate findings on serotonin. We explore what serotonin reliably affects (sexual function), where the data are inconsistent (mood, sleep, appetite), and how SSRIs may increase activity in the short term yet disrupt systems over time. We zoom out to the marketing that reframed distress as a biological condition requiring medication, cementing a professional identity while sidelining context—grief, trauma, values, and life events that actually shape how we feel.

	ECT, America's Darkest Medical Scandal with ECT Warrior Sarah Price Hancock	25 Nov 2025	01:00:45
Send us a text Electricity doesn’t care about intent—and when it meets the human brain, biology, physics, and ethics collide. We sit down with Sarah Price Hancock, a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor and former professor who became an advocate after sustaining injuries from electroconvulsive shock treatment. Her story pulls back the curtain on how misdiagnosis, catatonia, and “maintenance ECT” can unfold in a system with scant dosing standards, limited specialty training, and a consent process that often breaks down when people are most vulnerable. Sarah explains electroporation in clear terms: high-frequency pulses can open cell membranes and barriers, allowing drugs, histamine, and pathogens to move into places they shouldn’t. We connect that mechanism to real-world physiology—massive, rapid changes in cerebral blood flow, seizure-driven oxygen and glucose demands, and periods of postictal brain and even cardiac silence. The result can be perfusion and reperfusion injury, hypoxic-ischemic damage, and a spectrum of cognitive, motor, cranial nerve, and autonomic problems that may appear immediately or emerge over time.

	Med Stacked As a Teenager Until Young Adulthood, Now I'm Finding Home In A Body Once Silenced	18 Nov 2025	00:47:34
Send us a text Start with a simple premise: what if the “problem” wasn’t you, but a system that muted your body’s signals and called it care? We sit down with Rachel Reynolds—garden coach, sensitive soul, and antidepressant survivor—to trace a decade-long arc from teen prescriptions to tricyclics, stacked medications, and a side effect no one wanted to own: urinary retention so severe basic routines became a battle. Her story is candid, specific, and, ultimately, empowering. Rachel maps the medication maze—Prozac’s early lift, the slide to amitriptyline, and a carousel of add-ons and cross-tapers that never addressed root causes. We unpack how side effects get mislabeled as “anxiety,” why spironolactone for acne collides with psychiatric meds more than most realize, and how dermatology’s quick fixes can ignore inflammation, gut health, and liver load. When a self-directed taper brought withdrawal roaring in—anhedonia, nausea, sensory overwhelm—Rachel feared her personality was a pharmaceutical illusion. Instead, as she listened inward, boundaries sharpened and misaligned work fell away. The pivot came through terrain-based healing.

	Antidepressants Increase Violent Behaviors with Forensic Psychologist Dr Toby Watson	11 Nov 2025	01:01:03
Send us a text Most headlines shrug and say, “we may never know why.” We refuse that answer. With clinical psychologist Dr. Toby Watson, we examine the uncomfortable pattern linking widely prescribed psychiatric medications to spikes in suicidality, aggression, and even homicidal ideation—especially when starting, stopping, or changing doses. The data trail is stark: a small cluster of antidepressants, anxiolytics, sedatives, and stimulants accounts for the vast majority of severe violent reports, while black box warnings arrived years late and adverse events were often buried or recoded in trials. We talk plainly about informed consent—what patients are told, what they aren’t, and how medication guides can change the conversation. Toby breaks down how placebo frequently explains perceived benefits on depression scales, how “spellbinding” dulls insight and critical thought, and why therapy falters when the mind is numbed. We unpack stimulant‑induced mania misdiagnosed as “new bipolar,” the non‑linear reality of withdrawal, and the structural brain changes that make quick tapers a recipe for harm.

	Hard Truths, Real Recovery Surviving Spinal Cord Injury with Daniel West	04 Nov 2025	00:47:46
Send us a text Comfort can feel caring—and still cost you your future. We sit down with Daniel West, a rule-breaking physical therapist who argues that “slow and safe” rehab keeps people stuck, while blunt truth and early, focused movement produce real functional gains. Daniel brings hard-won perspective from his own car accident and years of hospital work, including a devastating story about a 25-year-old who died after being encouraged to stay in bed. His point lands with force: informed consent means telling patients the actual risks of immobility and the physics of recovery, not wrapping them in reassurance that backfires. We dig into the culture of labels that can quietly define a person’s ceiling—“complete” injuries that supposedly can’t improve—contrasted with cases Daniel has walked back to function in days. He explains why he rejects gimmicks and tech theater in favor of precise load, leverage, and relentless intent, and why he caps his practice at ten patients to protect outcomes. Expect friction around incentives too: if a protocol delivers results in hours, months of billing vanish, and that resistance is real.

	Antidepressants Stole My Wife & Marriage with LA's Comedy Cop, Cliff Yates	28 Oct 2025	00:47:30
Send us a text The spark didn’t just fade—it was blunted. We bring on Cliff Yates, a 35-year veteran of the LA County Sheriff’s Department and stand-up comic, to unpack how SSRIs can quietly reorganize a relationship’s core: intimacy, memory, judgment, and even the stories we tell about each other. Cliff walks us through the gut-punch details—a cruise retold as isolation, affection replaced by aggression, and a warm home recast as a staging ground for divorce—while we map those moments against medication switches, taper attempts, and the confusing dance between “relapse” and withdrawal. Together we examine the clinical minefield where mania triggered by antidepressants is relabeled as “unmasking bipolar,” where new diagnoses justify more drugs, and where emotional numbing blocks the grief necessary to repair. We explore the neuroscience behind spellbinding—why the medicated reality can feel unimpeachably true to the person on the drug—and how that leaves spouses questioning their sanity. We also confront the social backdrop: skyrocketing antidepressant use, rising “silver divorce,” and a culture that treats pain as pathology while ignoring side Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Beyond Pills: The Metabolic Truth of Mental Health with Ruth Dottin, Psychiatrist	21 Oct 2025	00:47:10
Send us a text What if the root of mental illness isn't just in your brain, but in how your entire body processes energy? Dr. Ruth Dottin, a board-certified psychiatrist, takes us on a journey that challenges everything we've been told about psychiatric care. After years of practicing traditional psychiatry, Dr. Dottin confronted an uncomfortable truth: many of her patients weren't getting better despite medication, and some seemed to be getting worse. This realization led her to explore metabolic psychiatry, a revolutionary approach examining how our body's metabolism directly impacts our mental health. The conversation dives deep into how our mitochondria—the powerhouses of our cells—play a crucial role in brain function. When disrupted by poor diet, sleep deprivation, chronic stress, or environmental toxins, these tiny cellular components can contribute to depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. Dr. Dotton explains how processed foods, sugar, and nutrient deficiencies create the perfect storm for both metabolic dysfunction and mental distress.

	Bipolar Disorder: Shattering Myths with Michelle Reittinger	14 Oct 2025	01:02:04
Send us a text "Does that mean I'm broken?" This question haunted Michelle Reittinger after her bipolar disorder diagnosis in 1998. Like countless others, she believed the psychiatric narrative that her condition was incurable, neurodegenerative, and would require lifelong medication management. What followed was a harrowing decade-plus journey through the mental health system that nearly cost her everything. Michelle's raw, unflinching account takes us through the escalating cycles of medication failures, four psychiatric hospitalizations, 12 rounds of electroconvulsive therapy, and multiple suicide attempts. The poignant moment that finally anchored her to life came while watching her four-year-old daughter play. "If you ever succeed in ending your life, you will ruin her life," Michelle realized. "She will think it was her fault." This clarity became her tether to existence when nothing else could. What makes this conversation truly extraordinary is how it challenges the fundamental assumptions about bipolar disorder.

	The Pill That Steals Lives Katinka Newman's Terrifying Journey to find the Truth about Antidepressants	07 Oct 2025	00:59:28
Send us a text What happens when the medication meant to help you becomes the very thing that steals your life? Katinka Blackford Newman's journey from successful documentary filmmaker to psychiatric patient began with something deceptively simple: stress-induced insomnia after learning she would lose her family home during a divorce. When one doctor's visit turned into a prescription for an antidepressant, Newman experienced a nightmare reaction that medical professionals refused to recognize. After just one dose, she developed excruciating akathisia and fell into psychosis, hallucinating that she had harmed her children. Rather than identifying this as a medication reaction, doctors diagnosed her with "psychotic depression" and later bipolar disorder, leading to a cascade of additional prescriptions that left her emotionally numb, physically debilitated, and unable to function as a mother to her children. For an entire year, Newman found herself trapped in a medical system that interpreted her concerns about medication harm as further evidence of mental illness. The breakthrough came unexpectedly when her insurance coverage ended, lea Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	From OCD to Polypharmacy Hell: Safa Asgari's Fight for Mental Health Truth	30 Sep 2025	00:48:01
Send us a text Psychiatry's dark patterns know no borders. In this eye-opening conversation, Safa Asgari reveals his three-year journey through psychiatric treatment in Iran that mirrors the experiences of countless patients worldwide. What begins as a straightforward OCD diagnosis quickly spirals into a nightmare of polypharmacy and cascading misdiagnoses. After experiencing severe side effects from Prozac, Safa finds himself labeled with bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, and ADHD - each new diagnosis bringing additional medications rather than recognition of adverse drug reactions. At one point, he's simultaneously taking ten different psychiatric drugs. "Deep down I had the feeling something was wrong," Safa explains, describing moments of clarity that persisted despite heavy medication. When he questioned treatments or reported worsening symptoms, his concerns were dismissed as further evidence of mental illness. Most disturbing is how he was threatened with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) if he didn't comply with medication protocols.

Send us a text What happens when psychiatric systems designed to "help" actually hurt the most vulnerable among us? Minister Fred Shaw Jr., a powerhouse advocate with decades of experience fighting for children's rights, pulls back the curtain on psychiatry's troubling relationship with minority communities. Shaw's journey began when his own son was diagnosed with dyslexia and recommended for psychiatric intervention. Rather than accepting the prescribed path of medication, Shaw chose alternative educational approaches that ultimately helped his son overcome his reading challenges. This personal experience sparked a lifelong mission to protect children from unnecessary psychiatric labeling and drugging. Drawing from his unique background as a former sheriff's deputy, NAACP president, and international spokesperson for the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, Shaw delivers shocking insights into how mental health systems target vulnerable populations. "We don't have mental health in this country," Shaw asserts. "We have mental control." He reveals how approximately 6.1 million American children are currently on psychiatric drugs—medicati Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Mental Health in Family Court: A Safeguard or a Weapon?	16 Sep 2025	00:48:05
Send us a text Mental health stigma becomes a weaponized battleground in divorce and custody proceedings—a reality that impacts countless families navigating the family court system. In this eye-opening conversation with family law attorney McKenna Zimmerman, we peel back the layers of how mental health diagnoses, treatment decisions, and even therapy records can dramatically alter the trajectory of a family court case. Zimmerman reveals the hidden power dynamics at play, particularly through the role of the guardian ad litem—court-appointed attorneys who represent children's interests with remarkable investigative authority. These legal professionals can access medical records, interview therapists, and ultimately make recommendations that profoundly impact custody arrangements. What's particularly striking is how casual mental health accusations ("they're a narcissist") float through courtrooms without substantiation, while legitimate mental health concerns often remain misunderstood or oversimplified. The conversation tackles difficult questions about domestic violence survivors facing custody battles, the risks of submitting therapy Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Charlie Kirk: A Lesson in Ethics, Neutrality, and Freedom of Speech	12 Sep 2025	00:24:30
Send us a text Freedom of speech lies at the heart of democracy, but what happens when speaking your truth is met with violence and death? The tragic loss of Charlie Kirk has revealed a disturbing trend among mental health professionals who have abandoned their ethical obligation to neutrality, celebrating the death of a human being simply because they disagreed with his political views. Drawing from our extensive experience as therapists in the prison system, where we worked with individuals who committed heinous crimes while maintaining professional neutrality, we examine the stark contrast between proper therapeutic ethics and the shocking behavior displayed by self-proclaimed mental health professionals on social media platforms following Kirk's death. When therapists can sit with violent criminals without judgment but cannot extend the same courtesy to someone with different political beliefs, we must question what's happening to our profession. Charlie Kirk began his career at just 19 years old, standing before thousands to debate ideas and encourage critical thinking. Whether you agreed with his message or not, his ability to articulate his views without inciting violence demonstrated his commitment to peaceful discourse. In an era where reasoned debate often gives way to personal attacks, Kirk's approach to discussion—focused on ideas rather than individuals—offers an important lesson for all of us, regardless of political affiliation. This episode isn't about red or blue politics—it's about respecting human dignity, upholding freedom of speech, and m Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

Send us a text "They told me Ativan would be a part of my life for the rest of my life. Well, they were right—but not in the way they thought it would." Meet Luanne Wall—registered nurse with 41 years of critical care experience, wife, mother, grandmother, and survivor of benzodiazepine dependency. When pandemic stress, family illness, and mounting anxiety led her to seek help from her doctor in 2021, she received a prescription for Ativan to be taken three times daily. What followed was a descent into dependency that would affect not only her life but her daughter's and infant grandson's as well. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Luanne reveals the brutal reality of prescription benzodiazepine use that most doctors won't acknowledge. From experiencing severe interdose withdrawal despite taking the medication exactly as prescribed, to being told she "wouldn't become addicted" because she "didn't have an addictive personality," her story exposes the dangerous misconceptions perpetuated by medical professionals about these powerful drugs. Most compelling is Luanne's refusal to distinguish between her experience and that of st Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Stimulants, Schools, and the Scam You Never Saw Coming with Sheila Matthews Co-Founder AbleChild.org	02 Sep 2025	00:49:40
Send us a text Have you ever wondered why schools seem so quick to suggest ADHD medication for children who don't sit still? The truth behind this practice is more disturbing than most parents realize. Sheila Matthews never expected a single school meeting about her seven-year-old son would launch her into a two-decade fight against the psychiatric labeling and drugging of children. After witnessing another mother testify before Congress about the devastating effects of school-mandated medication, Matthews made a bold decision to refuse an ADHD diagnosis for her own child. This choice led her to co-found AbleChild.org, a national nonprofit organization that has successfully pushed for legislative changes protecting parents' rights to make informed decisions about their children's mental health care. Matthews pulls back the curtain on how ADHD diagnoses originated not from scientific discovery but from pharmaceutical marketing campaigns in the 1970s. She explains how subjective checklists created by drug companies have replaced proper medical evaluation, and how schools without medical authority pressure parents into medication pathways.

	Crossing Zero: The Art & Science of Deprescribing with Anders Sorensen	26 Aug 2025	01:04:13
Send us a text When you've been told your brain chemistry is permanently broken, the idea of coming off psychiatric medication can feel terrifying—or even impossible. But what if everything you've been told about these drugs is based on an outdated model? Psychologist Anders Sorensen joins us to shatter the myths surrounding psychiatric medication and share evidence-based approaches to safely tapering off these drugs. With his PhD in psychiatry and years of clinical experience, Anders brings a unique perspective that bridges psychological understanding with pharmacological expertise. At the heart of our conversation is SERT occupancy—the mechanism by which antidepressants affect brain chemistry. Anders explains why even "baby doses" can have powerful effects and why standard tapering approaches often fail. His hyperbolic tapering method follows the actual biological curve of how medications work, preventing the withdrawal symptoms that are often misinterpreted as relapse. We challenge the chemical imbalance theory and explore how psychiatric drugs function not as disease treatments but as strategies for emotion regulation.

	Rethinking My Own True Acceptance: Willy Millard’s Journey to Authenticity	19 Aug 2025	00:56:56
Send us a text The moment Willy Millard walked in on his parents meeting with school officials asking "What did we do wrong?" after he came out at age 12, he knew the journey ahead wouldn't match the promised narrative. That painful memory still resonates years later as he navigates the unexpected complexities of identity both within and beyond the LGBTQ+ community. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Willy shares how he discovered that coming out didn't lead to the unconditional acceptance he'd been promised. Instead, he found himself trading one set of boxes for another – now expected to define himself according to rigid community classifications: Was he a twink, a bear, or an otter? Which hanky color should he flag? The very community that preached acceptance demanded conformity to its own complex codes and categories. As a successful stylist and salon owner, Willy also pushes back against being labeled "the gay stylist" rather than simply being recognized for his craft. He questions why his sexuality needs to be the qualifier for his professional identity, noting with pride that his recent magazine features celebrated his artistry Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

Send us a text What happens when the medication prescribed to help you ends up stealing fundamental aspects of your humanity? We sit down with Cael, a courageous 22-year-old who sought help for college anxiety at 19 and ended up trapped in a web of psychiatric medications that permanently altered his ability to feel emotions and experience physical pleasure. His story exposes the devastating reality of Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction, a condition that affects one in every 216 antidepressant users yet remains buried in medication inserts and dismissed by doctors. Cael walks us through his journey from normal college adjustment anxiety to a cascade of psychiatric medications including Lexapro, Effexor, Zoloft, Cymbalta, and antipsychotics. Despite multiple doctors and genetic testing that promised personalized treatment, each medication brought new side effects that were blamed on "underlying conditions." The emotional numbness and sexual dysfunction that followed have left him feeling disconnected from family, friends, and romantic relationships during what should be the peak years of his life.

Send us a text How can a seemingly harmless prescription for a sleep aid turn fatal? When Kim Witczak's husband Woody died by suicide after just five weeks on Zoloft—a medication prescribed not for depression, but for trouble sleeping—she was thrust into an unexpected role as a pharmaceutical safety advocate. Her journey from successful advertising executive to FDA committee member reveals the shocking truth about how drug companies manipulate research, hide side effects, and prioritize profits over safety. Kim's discovery of internal Pfizer documents exposed that pharmaceutical companies have long known about dangerous side effects like akathisia—a state of extreme inner restlessness that can trigger suicidal impulses—yet deliberately kept this information from general practitioners who write most prescriptions. Through her wrongful death lawsuit, she uncovered evidence that drug companies had even created "prosecutor manuals" to defend cases where their medications were linked to violence or suicide.

Dr. Clayton Durr, performance physical therapist who has worked with champion athletes across powerlifting, strongman, and CrossFit, joins the Gaslit Truth Podcast to challenge everything you've been told about chronic pain. Sharing eye-opening insights from his practice, Dr. Durr reveals how our own brains can create "anticipatory pain" even after tissues have healed—and how the medical system often fails to address this crucial disconnect. Through powerful patient stories, Dr. Durr demonstrates how something as simple as validation and proper movement can eliminate pain that multiple doctors dismissed as permanent. He breaks down the problematic profit-driven algorithm most pain patients experience: doctor visit → X-ray → opioids → injections → surgery, noting that 50% of back surgeries show no improvement in outcomes.

Send us a text Have you been conditioned to believe that nutrition's only purpose is weight management? This groundbreaking conversation with mental health nutritionist Dr. David Wiss shatters that myth, revealing how the food industry has deliberately gaslit us into focusing on calories rather than food quality. Drawing from his journey as a registered dietitian turned whistleblower, Dr. Wiss explains how he discovered troubling conflicts of interest in nutrition education. Food companies sponsor webinars about the "safety" of high fructose corn syrup while promoting the oversimplified calories-in-calories-out model that keeps us trapped in diet mentality. Meanwhile, the profound connections between ultra-processed foods and mental health challenges remain largely unexplored in conventional healthcare. The functional medicine approach offers a revolutionary alternative. Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, it connects mental, physical, and spiritual health through systems biology.

	College Readiness: The Hidden Cost of Being Overmedicated with Joanna Lilley M.A., NCC	15 Jul 2025	00:41:49
Send us a text Mental health readiness is perhaps the most overlooked aspect of college preparation. While academic credentials and test scores dominate the conversation, students are rarely assessed for their emotional resilience and social readiness – the very skills that often determine their success. Our conversation with Joanna Lilley, a therapeutic consultant who works exclusively with college-aged young adults, reveals a troubling pattern. Many students who excel academically find themselves overwhelmed by college life, sometimes withdrawing after just days or weeks. The culprit? A lack of preparation for the independence, social navigation, and emotional regulation college demands. Parents play a crucial role in this readiness equation. The "helicopter" or "lawnmower" parenting styles that clear all obstacles from a child's path inadvertently prevent them from developing resilience. When these students face inevitable college challenges without their parents' intervention, they often crumble under pressure they've never learned to manage.

	Your ChatGPT Therapist Is Gaslighting You About Mental Health	08 Jul 2025	00:47:30
Send us a text The AI therapy revolution promises accessible mental healthcare at your fingertips, but is this technological quick fix actually gaslighting us all? In this revealing exploration, we test ChatGPT's capabilities as a Freudian therapist and uncover both the appeal and the deeply concerning limitations of algorithm-based mental health support. When we prompted ChatGPT to analyze feelings of loneliness and depression, it responded with surprisingly eloquent and validating language—far more sophisticated than many human therapists might use. This linguistic prowess creates what we call "the illusion of support," a façade of understanding that feels meaningful but lacks the genuine human connection that forms the foundation of effective therapy. While AI can parse your words and reflect them back with added flourishes, it cannot truly feel your pain or engage in the messy, uncomfortable work that real therapeutic relationships often require. The most troubling aspect of AI therapy tools is how perfectly they align with our cultural obsession with convenient solutions to inconvenient problems.

	Psych Nurse Blows the Whistle on Psychiatry's Inconvenient Truth	01 Jul 2025	00:59:05
Send us a text What happens when a decorated psychiatric nurse discovers the medications he's been administering for years might be causing more harm than good? David Wayne's world turned upside down in 2017—ironically the same year he won his hospital's Excellence in Nursing Leadership Award—when he read Robert Whitaker's "Anatomy of an Epidemic" and could no longer ignore the troubling evidence about psychiatric medications. David takes us behind the scenes of hospital psychiatry, revealing how he attempted to create honest educational materials about Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (PSSD) only to have them rejected because, as his medical director reportedly said, they would "make it too hard to get people on these medications." This stunning admission exposes the prioritization of medication compliance over true informed consent that permeates our mental health system. The conversation ventures into territory rarely discussed in mainstream mental health circles—how SSRIs not only cause sexual dysfunction but emotional numbing that disconnects people from joy, grief, and intimate relationships.

	ECT the Shocking Truth: How Psychiatry Turns Brain Damage into Treatment with Deborah Schwartzkopff, ECT Justice	24 Jun 2025	00:54:54
Send us a text Have you ever wondered what really happens during electroconvulsive therapy? Not what's shown in glossy brochures or described in sanitized consent forms, but the raw, unfiltered truth from someone who's experienced it firsthand? In this eye-opening conversation, we're joined by Deborah Schwartzkopff, a retired level one trauma nurse and the founder of ECT Justice, who pulls back the curtain on the psychiatric treatment that continues to be promoted as safe and effective despite mounting evidence to the contrary. Deborah takes us through her journey from adverse reactions to psychiatric medications to being prescribed dangerously high doses of multiple drugs, and eventually to receiving electroconvulsive therapy - a treatment she now describes as causing "acquired traumatic brain injury based on mechanism of trauma." With her unique perspective as both a medical professional and a patient, she explains how electrical trauma impacts every cell and system in the body, creating damages that may not be immediately apparent but evolve over time.

	The Mental healthcare system almost killed me, but I'm still here to tell the story. Sarah Trueb's Fight Against Medical Abuse	17 Jun 2025	00:53:20
Send us a text What happens when the very system designed to heal you becomes the source of your deepest trauma? Sarah Trueb's life changed forever when, at just 39 years old, she suffered a stroke after years of medication mismanagement and medical dismissal. Once a successful massage therapist helping others heal, Sarah found herself fighting for her own survival against a healthcare system determined to label her physical symptoms as "all in her head." Sarah's journey began with seeking help for PTSD following a family trauma. Instead of appropriate trauma care, she was immediately diagnosed with bipolar disorder and prescribed lithium—the first in a cascade of 33 different medications that would wreak havoc on her body and brain over the next several years. Despite showing clear signs of medication sensitivity and developing increasingly severe neurological symptoms, healthcare providers continued to view her through a purely psychiatric lens. The most chilling aspect of Sarah's story is how her stroke warning signs—numbness, facial drooping, and slurred speech—were dismissed as "stress" or "anxiety" by medical staff.

	Suicide Swatted: The Dark Side of Psychiatric Human Trafficking with Gina Fournier	10 Jun 2025	01:01:42
Send us a text What happens when institutions weaponize psychiatric care to silence whistleblowers? In this eye-opening conversation, former community college professor Gina Fournier shares her traumatic experience with what she terms "psychiatric human trafficking" – a harrowing journey that began when she questioned academic standards at her workplace. Gina's story unfolds like a dystopian nightmare – she was "suicide swatted" by her employer after speaking out, resulting in forced detention at a psychiatric facility where she received virtually no evaluation or meaningful treatment. The clinical certificates authorizing her confinement were riddled with irregularities, including one signed by a doctor who never examined her. Most tellingly, her release came not when she was deemed "well," but when her insurance coverage ran out. The aftermath has been equally disturbing. Permanently labeled with code "48" in law enforcement systems, Gina describes years of ongoing retaliation, including additional suicide swatting incidents when she's sought justice from elected officials.

	Your Complete Guide to Medication Tapering: The Final Stage Pt 3.	03 Jun 2025	00:37:29
Send us a text You've been gaslit into believing medication tapering means cutting pills in half and taking them every other day until you're done. The reality? Your brain requires a much more sophisticated approach. In this final installment of our medication tapering series, we reveal the neurological science behind why standard tapering methods fail so many patients. Discover what's actually happening as your brain's receptors adjust when medication levels change, and why those challenging symptoms aren't a "return of your condition" but genuine withdrawal effects your prescriber may never have warned you about. We dive deep into the hyperbolic tapering method, explaining why initial reductions often feel deceptively easy while those final milligrams can be the most challenging. Learn to identify withdrawal symptoms beyond the obvious brain zaps—from headaches and vivid dreams to digestive issues—that signal when your taper is moving too quickly for your unique neural adaptation. The most crucial factor in successful tapering? Individualization. Your withdrawal timeline might look nothing like someone else's, even on the same medication. Some experience effects within days, while others don't notice symptoms until weeks after a reduction. Understanding your personal pattern becomes your most powerful tool. Whether you're contemplating a medication reduction or currently struggling through withdrawal, this episode provides both scientific understanding and practical guidance to navigate the journey with greater confidence and fewer setbacks.

	Medication Tapering: Knowledge is Power Pt 2	27 May 2025	00:52:23
Send us a text Ready to break free from psychiatric medications? The journey isn't simple, but it is possible—and we're here to guide you through the complex reality of medication tapering in this revealing second installment of our deprescribing series. Many people believe they're destined to take antidepressants forever, a misconception often reinforced by healthcare providers with limited knowledge about deprescribing. The truth? Tapering off psychiatric medications requires a thoughtful, comprehensive approach that extends far beyond simply reducing your dosage. Think of medication tapering as an ultra marathon rather than a sprint. We recommend allowing 1-3 months of tapering for every year you've been on medication—a timeline that might feel daunting but reflects the body's need for gradual adjustment. Before even beginning to reduce your medication, we emphasize the critical importance of assembling your "taper team"—supportive healthcare providers, knowledgeable pharmacists, and deprescribing specialists who understand the nuances of this process.

	Are we all MAD IN AMERICA? with Robert Whitaker, Mad in America Founder and Author	13 May 2025	00:59:56
Send us a text The truth about psychiatric medications is far more troubling than most people realize. In this eye-opening conversation with medical journalist Bob Whitaker, founder of Mad in America and author of groundbreaking books challenging psychiatric orthodoxy, we uncover the deceptive science behind the "chemical imbalance" theory and how it has harmed countless patients. Whitaker shares his personal journey from conventional medical reporter to psychiatric whistleblower after discovering research that contradicted everything he'd been told about mental health treatments. Most shocking is his revelation that the chemical imbalance theory—the foundation of modern psychopharmacology—was debunked in psychiatry's own literature decades ago. "They knew it wasn't true starting in the 80s," Whitaker explains, "but then they kept saying it because it was a soundbite that made their drugs look good." We dive deep into the corrupt research practices behind psychiatric drug trials, where exclusion criteria keep 85% of real-world patients out of studies, and "placebo" groups actually consist of people experiencing withdrawal symptoms.

	EMDR: Because Talk Therapy Alone Can Make Trauma Worse with Jeremy Fox, Counselor & EMDR Consultant	06 May 2025	00:53:01
Send us a text Talking about trauma doesn't always lead to healing – in fact, it can sometimes make things worse. This groundbreaking episode features EMDR expert Jeremy Fox, who reveals why traditional talk therapy approaches sometimes fall short when treating trauma and introduces a powerful alternative. Jeremy explains how Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) works through a fundamentally different mechanism than conventional therapy. Rather than having clients deeply immerse themselves in traumatic narratives, EMDR creates what Jeremy calls a "dual attention process" – keeping one foot in the traumatic past and one in the present. Through guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation, EMDR "taxes working memory," making it difficult for the brain to maintain the same intense emotional connection to traumatic memories. We explore the fascinating science behind this approach, including Jeremy's published research on the Zeigarnik Effect – the psychological principle that explains why interrupted or incomplete experiences (like traumatic memories) remain more vivid in our minds than completed ones.

That's the question at the heart of this explosive episode where we reveal the shocking disconnect between existing research and what medical providers tell patients about SSRI side effects. When co-host Jen called her doctor about concerning blood glucose results during her Lexapro taper, she was immediately shut down with "No, that can't be related to your medication." But as we uncover, multiple studies dating back over a decade have established clear connections between SSRIs and metabolic disturbances. We share a jaw-dropping recording of this medical gaslighting in action, breaking down all the ways Jen's legitimate concerns were dismissed without consideration. Looking deeper, we explore compelling research including a 2013 study showing significant increases in weight, blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides in women taking various SSRIs for just 16 weeks. Even more convincingly, a massive 2020 Japanese study of 90,000 participants concluded that "antidepressants increased the risk of type 2 diabetes," with risk increasing alongs Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

Send us a text What happens when a medical professional becomes the victim of the very medications they once prescribed? Nicole Lamberson, physician assistant and medical director for the Benzodiazepine Information Coalition, takes us through her harrowing journey from stressed PA student to polypharmacy casualty to powerful advocate for medication safety. Nicole's story begins with work-related anxiety during PA school that led to a prescription for Xanax. What followed was a five-year nightmare of escalating medications – six psychiatric drugs simultaneously, including multiple benzodiazepines, stimulants, and antipsychotics. As her health deteriorated, Nicole found herself unable to function, agoraphobic, and eventually suicidal. When she attempted to discontinue these medications, she encountered a medical system utterly unprepared to help patients safely taper off psychiatric drugs. The podcast explores the profound gaps in medical education around deprescribing, with Nicole revealing that her professional training included "absolutely zero" instruction on safely discontinuing medications.

Send us a text Angie Peacock's life changed forever when she sought psychiatric help after serving in Iraq. What followed was a 13-year nightmare on more than 40 psychiatric medications simultaneously – a pharmaceutical regimen that robbed her of her identity, relationships, and basic functioning. "I completely got robbed of my twenties and thirties," Angie reveals, describing how she lost the ability to shower, read, or even watch TV while heavily medicated. Her medical records ultimately labeled her as having "chronic and persistent mental illness not likely to improve." The psychiatric establishment had written her off. The turning point came when Angie was invited to share her story in the groundbreaking documentary "Medicating Normal." During a catastrophic cold-turkey withdrawal from benzodiazepines, she endured three years of akathisia, intrusive thoughts, and physical agony. Yet something remarkable happened – her brain began to heal itself. Without supplements, alternative therapies, or more medications, Angie's psychiatric symptoms resolved completely.

	Do Kids Really Belong in a Therapists Office?	08 Apr 2025	00:41:15
Send us a text The decision to send your child to therapy seems like responsible parenting, but what if that choice follows them long after childhood ends? As licensed therapists ourselves, we're pulling back the curtain on a troubling reality that few professionals discuss openly. Mental health diagnoses given to children as young as six or seven years old don't simply disappear when therapy ends. These labels become permanent parts of medical records that can affect military applications, government employment, insurance coverage, and more. We share real examples from our practices of young adults facing obstacles because of childhood diagnoses they've long since outgrown. A revealing study found that over two-thirds of people who received therapy as children reported negative effects from the experience, with many developing increased stress and a sense that their problems would never improve. Perhaps most concerning is how children are routinely placed on psychiatric medications with profound physiological effects that alter their developing nervous systems. As parents, the pressure to medicate children into compliance can Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Disrupting Mental Healthcare Norms: with Raquel Hopkins Professional Counselor & Capacity Coach	01 Apr 2025	01:00:17
Send us a text Three therapists pull back the curtain on an uncomfortable truth: the mental health industry often keeps us trapped in cycles of symptom management rather than helping us truly thrive. "The Capacity Expert" Raquel Hopkins joins Dr. Tara Lynn and Therapist Jen to challenge mainstream mental health narratives that have created an emotionally fragile culture. With her unique background transitioning from corporate HR to therapy, Raquel brings a refreshingly critical perspective that questions the fundamentals of how we approach mental wellness. Together, they explore how we've confused normal human emotions with mental illness, why gaslighting exists in all human relationships, and the danger of creating perpetual therapy clients instead of resilient individuals. "Your emotions are just internal data," Raquel explains, "not facts and not justification for how people should respond to you." The conversation dives into controversial territory, questioning whether childhood exploration should be the default starting point in therapy and challenging the notion that our nervous system is always right about perceived thre Savorista Coffee is offering our listeners 25% off their premium craft decaf and half caf blends with bold flavors, ethically sourced beans, and natural decaffeination.

	Gaslit by the System: One Man's 20-Year Battle with Psychiatric Medications and Withdrawal	26 Mar 2025	01:01:48
Send us a text Kevin Gundersen's story begins at age 12 when a doctor prescribed him Celexa for school anxiety. What followed was a two-decade nightmare of medication side effects, new symptoms, and medical gaslighting that robbed him of his youth and health. With raw honesty, Kevin recounts the vicious cycle familiar to many psychiatric patients: medication side effects misdiagnosed as worsening mental illness, leading to higher doses or new medications, creating even worse symptoms. His original anxiety transformed into debilitating panic attacks, vertigo, severe blood pressure spikes reaching 260/150, and the torturous movement disorder akathisia after starting psychiatric medications. Kevin's experience reveals how medical gaslighting extends beyond patients to families. "My parents were also gaslit," he explains, absolving them of blame for decisions made without true informed consent. This crucial insight highlights how psychiatric medication harms ripple through entire families, creating multiple victims from a single prescription.

Send us a text Mental health is a complex subject often lost in political rhetoric, and our latest episode of the Gaslit Truth Podcast brings this to the forefront. We challenge the commonly held beliefs surrounding civil commitment laws, particularly in Oregon, as we navigate the new proposed legislation that could redefine how mental health crises are handled. Join us as we uncover the intricate relationship between NAMI and civil commitments, confronting the ongoing narrative that embeds mental health within a political tug-of-war. As we discuss the proposed shift towards assessing a patient’s risk over a 30-day period instead of relying solely on immediate threats, we raise essential questions about the responsibilities placed upon mental health professionals. Are we setting them up for failure? And what about the rights of those in crisis? The episode also explores the implications of these laws on vulnerable populations and their intersection with prison reform efforts.

On today's episode of the Gaslit Truth Podcast, we challenge the mainstream belief and examine the influence of the pharmaceutical industry in shaping this narrative. As trained dialectical behavior therapists, we unravel the complexities surrounding therapeutic failures and question if it’s the medications rather than therapeutic interventions that often fall short.

The placebo effect might just be the unsung hero in the story of antidepressants' perceived success. Join us as we dissect studies that pit antidepressants against placebos, revealing the often-overlooked power of psychotherapy as a standalone treatment, especially in severe cases of depression.
