090: Roy Germano Interview — How David Became an Anti-Antidepressant Crusader and a Bestselling Author

I was recently interviewed by author, professor, and documentary filmmaker Roy Germano for his outstanding Other Side Podcast. Fabrice and I thought you might enjoy this interview, and Roy graciously gave us permission to share it with you. You will get some personal glimpses into the early days of my career, including why I left academics to pursue a full-time private practice, along with some of controversies about antidepressants. You will also hear a story of what happened when I was trying, rather unsuccessfully, to get my first book, Feeling Good, published. It wasn't easy, and it almost didn't happen! Roy is terrific and his podcasts cover a wide range of topics. You can find his podcasts on iTunes.
