Meet The Woman Psychiatrists See As a “Threat” - Laura Delano

from Side Effects with Dr. Josef · host Josef Witt-Doerring

Laura Delano shares her journey from being a 'professional psychiatric patient' for over a decade to becoming a leading voice in the psychiatric drug withdrawal movement. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder, Laura was prescribed a cocktail of medications that only worsened her mental and physical health. After a near-fatal suicide attempt, she began questioning everything she was told about her diagnosis and treatment. Laura discusses her harrowing tapering experience, the impact of psychiatric labels, and how she ultimately reclaimed her life by challenging the mainstream narrative. Today, she’s the founder of Inner Compass Initiative and the author of Unshrunk, where she continues to educate and support those questioning their psychiatric treatment.
