More on FIELDCRAFT? https://www.fieldcraftoutdoorco.com Are Too Many People Medicated… or Too Few? | Medication, Mental Health & Faith (with Keesha Nathaniel, APRN, DNP, PMHNP) Are too many people on psychiatric medication? Yes. Are too few people getting the help they need? Also yes. In this episode of Dr. Pepper & Friends, I sit down with Keesha Nathaniel, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, to talk honestly about medication, mental health, and faith — cutting through fear, stigma, and quick-fix thinking. We discuss when medication can be life-giving, when it may not be necessary, and why wise mental health care is never just about a prescription. This conversation explores how medication, counseling, lifestyle, relationships, and spiritual growth can work together for real healing. If you’ve ever wondered: ✔ Do I really need medication for anxiety or depression? ✔ Is taking medication a sign of weak faith? ✔ How does a responsible psychiatric evaluation actually work? ✔ Can medication help — without becoming the whole solution? …this episode will help you think clearly and make informed decisions. Our goal isn’t more medication or less medication — it’s the right care for the right person at the right time.
