It’s important to recognise that brain fog is one of the most frequently reported problems after withdrawal from #antidepressants, #antipsychotics and #benzodiazepines. It can be debilitating and last years for some people, myself included.

One of many ways the proliferation of biomedical psychiatry harms.
The neurofication of everyday life, aside from fuelling a global psych-drug market, is driving young people to reframe various forms of real distress & difficulty as indicating fixed disabilities, that neither they nor anyone else can change. This is debilitating a generation.

Western conceptualisations of trauma don’t capture the experiences of those living under brutal occupation. It equality doesn’t capture the experience of those at home living in deeply traumatised communities + poverty.

My plumber charges more than $150 per hour And what you’re selling has *nothing* to do w actual psychotherapy It always comes down to this: Real therapy is a meaningful human relationship & relationships don’t scale. So every startup sells something ELSE—and calls it “therapy"
Real therapy is VERY expensive, it can be $75-$150/hour for a good therapist That means weekly sessions with a real therapist can cost you $300 to $600 per month Also a real therapist isn't available 24/7, try calling them at 4am? Nights often are the darkest of times mentally,…

This sounds like an unskilled & very limited therapist & it breaks my heart. If there’s a problem & it’s “all in your head,” it’s something to explore/understand in therapy—not brush off. If it’s not “all in your head,” it’s also something to understand. What a missed opportunity
In 2022, I saw a therapist bc I kept feeling like ppl hated me. My therapist asked me to name specific ppl, but I couldn't, so she convinced me it's all in my head. A year later, my Twitter account blew up, and multiple legacy media outlets wrote stories about how I'm annoying
Children in more deprived areas are more likely to be prescribed antidepressants. This is the medicalisation of poverty.
