Nick Reiner's Medication Was Changed ONE MONTH Before the Murders — Therapist Explains What Went Wrong

from Hidden Killers Live! Daily True Crime News & Breakdowns · host Hidden Killers Podcast

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains the dangerous psychology behind Nick Reiner's reported mental deterioration in the month before he allegedly killed his parents Rob and Michele Reiner.Sources say Nick was stable on his schizoaffective disorder medication until he complained about weight gain. Doctors changed his meds. He spiraled. TMZ reported he became "erratic and dangerous" in the weeks leading up to the murders—and his parents saw it happening but didn't know what to do.Shavaun breaks down how medication changes can destabilize someone with a psychotic disorder, why Nick may have prioritized appearance over mental stability, and the psychological phenomenon of admitting to an act while believing the consequences are a conspiracy. We also examine whether Nick's years of meth use before his diagnosis may have caused permanent damage and why he may never be stable enough to stand trial.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #Schizoaffective #MentalHealth #Medication #ShavaunScott #Psychology #ReinerCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
