The Truth About Antidepressants!

Mar 12, 2026

What is the truth about antidepressants? What should people know before taking them, and what about when individuals are trying to get off them?

As someone who took the SSRI Paxil for over a dozen years for anxiety and then quit the medications for good, I know firsthand the potential benefits and risks of using these medications. I lived with side-effects, tolerance effects, and eventually withdrawal symptoms. But my initial prescribing doctor talked about none of these things. I took the medications basically unchecked, and then when I decided to taper them I had little guidance or even acknowledgement from the medical establishment.

In this video I discuss the conversation that doctors ought to have with patients when prescribing these medications. If you are someone who is considering taking antidepressants for depression, anxiety, or some other reason, please watch this video before making a decision! And if you are someone who is already tapering these medications or going through a withdrawal process and seeking healing, I think you’ll find it useful as well.
