I Was Prescribed Meth… by My Doctor
from Side Effects with Dr. Josef · host Josef Witt-Doerring
In this interview, Cooper Davis shares his 13-year journey on psychiatric medications: starting with Ritalin in high school, moving through nearly every stimulant, and eventually adding multiple other drugs. What began as a dramatic improvement in focus and grades slowly turned into tolerance, side effects, and a growing medication stack that hurt his health, relationships, and career. He describes the moments that pushed him to quit, his withdrawal in a 12-step rehab, and the process of rebuilding life without medications. This is a candid look at both the benefits and costs of psychiatric drugs, and what life can look like after coming off.
