But what if the story we’ve been told about them is incomplete… or even dangerously misleading?This week, IMA President Dr. Joseph Varon is joined by IMA Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Paul Marik and special guest Laura Delano, author of Unshrunk: A Story of Psychiatric Treatment Resistance, for a raw and revealing discussion on the hidden harms of SSRIs. Drawing from her personal journey through—and out of—the psychiatric system, Laura sheds light on the dangers of overdiagnosis, the suppression of emotional suffering, and the pharmaceutical narratives that continue to shape mental health care.As RFK Jr. and other public health voices begin to question the influence of psychiatric medications, this timely conversation examines identity, informed consent, youth mental health, and whether psychiatry needs reform—or a total rethink. Whether you’ve taken these medications yourself, are currently questioning a diagnosis, or simply want a deeper understanding of the risks and realities, this is a conversation that demands your attention.URL: https://imahealth.org/dark-side-of-ssri/Keywords/Tags: ssri dangers• Donate: https://imahealth.org/donate/• Follow: https://imahealth.org/contact/• Webinar: https://imahealth.org/category/weekly-webinars/• Treatment: https://imahealth.org/treatment-protocols/• Medical Disclaimer: https://imahealth.org/about/terms-and-conditions/About IMA (Formerly FLCCC Alliance)The Independent Medical Alliance™ is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization and coalition of physicians, nurses, and healthcare professionals united by a mission to restore trust and transparency in healthcare.
