Psych Med: Beyond Black-and-White Thinking

To lay some groundwork for the podcast episode:

Though conventionally trained as an adult and child psychiatrist, I no longer prescribe psychiatric medication. The focus of my work (now holistic and functional) and my continuing education for the past 10 years has been to identify and address underlying root causes of brain symptoms.  I’m not opposed to psychiatric medication. 

In this episode, I discuss:

* Misconceptions about psychiatric medication. 

* The criticism and judgments about the use of medication without offering realistic and available solutions.

* Dualistic thinking about meds as being all good or all bad.   

* How biochemical diversity results is diversity of benefits, responses and even side effects of medications.

* How we can all learn to see the bigger picture and not be susceptible to the judgments of others.
