John Cromby's review questions the premises of this critique of the 'pathological paradigm' madintheuk.com/2024/04/empire…
There could be at least 230,000 US citizens and 40,000 UK citizens with permanent #PSSD. This is a conservative estimate and doesn’t factor in those who used to take SSRIs / SNRIs but don’t currently. madintheuk.com/2023/05/antide…
Prescription Drugs Are the Leading Cause of Death by Peter C. Gøtzsche, MD Overtreatment with drugs kills many people, and the death rate is increasing. Why have we allowed this drug pandemic to continue? madinamerica.com/2024/04/prescr…
Surely it’s less an ‘increased public awareness' of a neurodivergent/psych condition that leads to higher diagnostic rates, and more an increased public tendency to reframe experience in terms of such conditions that leads to higher diagnostic rates.

Sedated @JDaviesPhD is brilliant. As so often with good books it puts into words questions that you have half formulated in yr own head but have neither skill nor knowledge to articulate. V clear and lively writing that even I (no scientific background) could easily follow.

When I sought help for crippling invasive thoughts, I was told I had a disease like any other. But I wasn’t able to recover until I understood the fallacy at the heart of mental healthcare theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

This review does not take into account the role of withdrawal in the risk of relapse. The most common method of stopping in these studies is 1 day, average 5 days, all ignored. These studies would show that cigs are effective for relapse prevention of anxiety.

National Geographic runs extensive coverage of ‘Many people wean off antidepressants too quickly. That can be dangerous.’ Using our large scale surveys. @Institute_PDW @Mad_In_America @MITUKteam @JDaviesPhD @jf_moore @markhoro @joannamoncrieff nationalgeographic.com/premium/articl… via @NatGeo
Useful that @NatGeo have highlighted how commonly withdrawal effects from antidepressants are mistaken for a relapse, concealing the scale of the problem from the system (paywall) bit.ly/3xyIw7v

@joannamoncrieff Reductionism is right, these and other pieces like it make it seem as everything we are psychologically comes down to the levels of 5 or so neurotransmitters which given the complexity of the brain seems absurd. A stereo is more complex than that model
@Coucou_CFC @markhoro @HengartnerMP @joannamoncrieff @ReadReadj @EikoFried @CEP_UK @Mad_In_America Only screened it quickly. The literature about neurotransmitters in depression is huge and so full of unreplicated findings, so you can create almost any story you want. These are my prior beliefs, which are usually confirmed when taking a closer look at such articles.
