From rushed appointments to a relentless focus on medication, I saw firsthand how psychiatric drugs were overprescribed while their long-term harms were ignored. After working at the FDA and then in the pharmaceutical industry, I couldn’t ignore the ethical dilemmas any longer. I walked away from it all to co-found Taper Clinic, where we help people safely get off psychiatric drugs. In this video, I share why I left, what I witnessed behind the scenes, and how we’re working to change the system. 👇 HOW CAN I HELP YOU? 💊 STEP OFF MEDICATIONS: https://membership.taperclinic.com/sign-up 👀 FREE Webinar https://membership.taperclinic.com/sign-up 🎙️ Share YOUR Story: https://upload.vloggi.com/projects/YXLW-001 CONNECT WITH ME: 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taperclinic/ 👨💻 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@taperclinic 🌍 My website: https://taperclinic.com/ Timestamps 00:00 From Psychiatry to Pharmaceutical Industry 02:54 The Crisis of Conscience in Psychiatry 05:55 The Flaws in Psychiatric Drug Research 09:07 The Dark Side of the Pharmaceutical Industry 11:51 The Impact of Psychiatric Medications on Patients 14:56 Building a New Practice: The Taper Clinic 17:56 Creating a Supportive Community 20:50 Finding Purpose in Helping Others 23:54 A Call to Action for Healthcare Professionals ‼️ DISCLAIMER: All the information on this channel is for educational and/or entertainment purposes and not intended to be specific/personal medical advice from me to you.
