@saffronkulfi1 @ReadReadj @joannamoncrieff @MindfulRussell Worrying too that those living in "the most deprived areas were more than three times as likely to receive APs as those in the least-deprived areas."
@saffronkulfi1 @ReadReadj @joannamoncrieff @MindfulRussell A cohort study of AP prescribing in primary care from 2014. People with dementia and ADHD are taking APs for long periods. Note "substantial doses" are received by those with depression, anxiety, personality and sleep disorders also for long periods. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
@ReadReadj As someone that used to work as a hospice chaplain, elder abuse in nursing homes and assisted living facilities is persistent, shocking, and an absolute black mark on the soul of the West. I am speaking in general, but I have also observed medications being used to sedate…

A. A long thread in response to @royperlis, Harvard professor of psychiatry, who recently suggested that SSRIs should be available over the counter, as they “have repeatedly been shown to be safe and effective for treating major depression and anxiety disorders” 1
People should wean off #antidepressants over months or years, not a few weeks as doctors in the US recommend. My latest @NatGeo piece breaks down the science. #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthSupport #depression nationalgeographic.com/premium/articl…

Great article by someone who was once a poster girl for the mental illness model of distress, crying its value from the rooftops, only to discover over painful time that everything she'd been led to believe turned out to be oppressive, wrong & harmful. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…
The biggest scandal in healthcare: Prescription drugs are the leading cause of death. And psychiatric drugs are the third leading cause of death. Depression drugs are the major killer. See my article: brownstone.org/articles/presc…
My Mum was put on ‘anti psychotics’ aged 90 when discharged from hospital (broken shoulder) to her care home, without being told! When I looked at her chart and challenged it I was told ‘We put all the old dears on them when they leave. Helps with transition’

@ReadReadj @joannamoncrieff @ReadReadj, here's the study the above Guardian piece stems from. Also, NICE's page on antipsychotics for dementia has been updated as at April 2024. Not saying it's related to this but still notable. Hope it goes well for you all- incl @MindfulRussell who is on X here. And…
@askdheeraj @ReadReadj Do you think anyone would consent to ECT if this information was provided to them??
@ReadReadj @joannamoncrieff Thank you!! My first and each psychotic break was a paradoxical prescribed antipsychotic adverse reaction and each was time was treated by increasing the dose and then the sedation was treated with ECT
@JoannaTeg @SameiHuda @BaldEaglePsych @pash22 @ReadReadj @DrAnnieHickox @DrK_W1984 @DrLadeSmith Dr Huda trained AGES ago. Young psychs far more open to what ya saying. Hes also unable to accept that mortality is impacted by so many factors beyond taking APs. The important outcome is suicide, which is no higher if don't take APs (2022 meta-analysis and famous paper below).
@saffronkulfi1 @ReadReadj @joannamoncrieff The FDA put a black box warning for elderly people on all APs but , just the other day, I was told by an assistant living facility owner “well, we HAVE TO put our agitated dementia patients on anti-psychotics!!”
