154. Breaking Free From Psychiatric Drug Dependency w/ Pharmacist Dr. Shawn Gill

An alarming number of individuals find themselves dependent on antidepressants and psychiatric medications, desperately seeking guidance on how to safely discontinue their use. The general medical community has failed to assist people in safely getting off these drugs. The dependency can create severe withdrawal symptoms. Most doctors have no clue how to get their patients off safely keeping them in a cycle of drug dependency. The worst of prescribers will frame the withdrawal symptoms as worsening "depression" and justification for staying on drugs. On Episode 154 of the Radically Genuine Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin dives into the topic of deprescribing and tapering off psychiatric drugs with a pharmacist.
Dr. Shawn Gill, PharmD, is a pharmacist, writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to sparking change in healthcare through deprescribing. He is the founder of Deprescribe Solutions, an independent consulting practice focused on reversing early-stage chronic conditions in mental health, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. He hosts the "Deprescribe" podcast and writes the Substack newsletter "B.U.D.S," where he explores topics in health, deprescribing, parenting, and personal growth.
