The Secret Cause Behind Tough Withdrawals

from The Holistic Psychiatrist · host Alice W. Lee, MD, ABIHM, ABoIM

Today's podcast explores a hidden cause behind many failed medication withdrawals. Usually, we will see signs of this secret underlying cause in patients who react badly to taking medications yet find it hard to lower them without experiencing intense "withdrawal" symptoms. When patients stop taking their medications, they may feel good for a few days, but then their mental health worsens. What is this mysterious underlying cause? Listen as Jack and I discuss the nature of the problem, how it was discovered, and how to treat it.
