Thoughts on Record: Podcast of the Ottawa Institute of Cognitive Behavioural TherapyMr. Robert Whitaker: Anatomy of an EpidemicComments or feedback? Send us a text! Many mental health clinicians and consumers operate under the assumption that mental illness results from chemical imbalances in the brain. However, a close examination of the evidence strongly suggests that this is not the case. In fact, there is some suggestion that psychotropic medications such as antipsychotics and antidepressants used to treat mental illness may themselves perturb normal neurochemical functioning. Importantly, pharmacologically inducted alterations in the functioning of core neurochemical systems may have important implications for the maintenance of symptoms and long-term outcomes. Author & journalist, Mr. Robert Whitaker jo...2020-11-091h 18

Keepin it Real with JaneanWe've Been Duped! Psychiatric Drugs and the Rise of Mental Illness in America w/ Robert WhitakerOne in five Americans take a psychiatric drug on a daily basis. Drugs for depression, anxiety and schizophrenia create the chemical imbalance that was hypothesized as mental illness in the first place. The medical model of chemical imbalance in the brain arose from the understanding of how drugs acted in the brain NOT what was actually going on in the brain before the drug was administered!
Research suggests that, long term, psychiatric drugs for depression, anxiety and schizophrenia are causing the opposite of the intended effect.
