I was on both anti anxiety pills and antidepressants at the same time. I quit cold Turkey on my own and it was a pretty horrendous experience. Took about three weeks for the drugs to leave my system and six months at least to regain my equilibrium. These drugs are not life savers, not helpful and they should stop prescribing them. I went on my own journey of discovery and found a good diet and walking everyday did far more good than any prescription.
It's sad when a PhD psychologist gets harmed by the very treatment they often prescribe to patients. I guess the scales fell off his eyes about that, huh. But I wonder how much of Dr. Peterson's extra suffering is due to the neurological and immunological damage from the Covid shots he took, that could have also played a role in his inability to detoxify mold exposure on top of the benzos withdrawal. And remember, he scolded everybody who wouldn't take the shots. Just lambasted us. Did Vigilant Fox forget about that? Does he now understand that psych meds for mental problems and bioweapon shots for a scamdemic might BOTH be a load of crap?
This is a most informative article shedding light on what can be a permanent brain injury from antidepressants and benzos, likely much more common than previously thought.
I do wonder why the publisher of this article felt the need to insert numerous pictures that have nothing to do with the text and add no value to the content. It causes the document to be unnecessarily long. The reader must repeatedly scroll past them to get to the next section of text. I wish there were a version of this article minus the irrelevant and distracting photos inserted between every few sentences.
I was started on psychiatric meds as a kid just because I was different and didn't like the other kids. That's it. I just wasn't social. I think the Ritalin and ssri's messed me up. Eventually I had a horrible breakdown in my early 20s. I got diagnosed with schizophrenia.
The meds they gave me were worse than the voices and hallucinations! A few did cause akathisia. Then they just kept upping my Zoloft for ocd to 300mg! I did eventually find an antipsychotic that has (knock on wood) kept me free from breakdowns and more episodes. My doctor says I have 'insight' so I can tell something isn't right when I start having a psychotic episode, which most people who suffer with schizophrenia don't have.
Anyway, akathisia was the WORST side effect of some of these meds. I was still hallucinating while experiencing that. It was horrible. In the past few years, since I've been pretty stable and have done intense exposure therapy for my ocd, I wanted off my ssri's. Holy shit! Going down from 300mg of Zoloft to 50mg wasn't that bad, but any lower and I'd get brain zaps and uncontrollable emotions.
I wanted off because I felt blunted. I had no real feelings of joy or happiness. No sexual feelings. All this stuff was getting worse and worse. Eventually I switched to the lowest dose of Prozac, which is much easier to get off of, and I'm just waiting for the okay to stop that.
I really think all my problems started because the school wanted me drugged as a child. Do NOT send your kids to a psychiatrist! I probably would have just grown out of it. Taking meds before your brain is even fully developed will fuck you up.
It seems to me that we have forgotten our origin. In so doing we deny ourselves the life we could have otherwise. As created beings striving to shut God out of our experience we place “science” upon the thrones of our minds and enslave ourselves to masters unseen, unknown and without compassion, claiming to know all when they know nothing. Removing ourselves from the care of our Shepherd, Who alone loves us, knows us and possesses all knowledge and power to heal us and elevate our lives to a state of peace, health and completeness.
The acceptance of the Son of God as our personal Saviour, trusting in His Word, the Bible, making every effort to lead obedient, productive lives and using the natural means He has provided to alleviate our ailments, coupled together with holy, loving fellowship with our Brethren, will bring an experience of life filled with unparalleled joy and health, even amidst the most unfavorable circumstances. This has no equal or substitute.
Benzodiazepines are actually bromazepines, check on bromism and you'll figure out what's really going on. Especially researchings, you'll find a lot of lies.
