#354 SSRI Mythology: Bundling or Bungling

Academia just can't stop meddling with nature especially when profit is involved. Today Blyss & Dr. Stu explore another likely fallacy of "Big Medicine" - the Chemical imbalance Theory of Depression. Even feral cats get it. Why can't they?

We delve into the complexities of managing low platelet counts during pregnancy and the importance of respecting the body's natural processes, juxtaposing this against the philosophy of minimal intervention at home births.

We navigate the contentious issues surrounding pharmaceutical interventions and discuss the implications of readily available over-the-counter contraceptives and the possible health risks of daily routines, such as prolonged bra usage. We share thought-provoking insights into the links between hormonal birth control, depression, and the subsequent use of SSRIs, shedding light on the cascading effects of health decisions. We scrutinize the long-held serotonin theory of depression, questioning the ethics of drug marketing and the necessity for more informed public knowledge about the treatment of depression.


Key highlights:

  • Birth Choices and Pharmaceutical Controversy
  • Platelet Count and Birth Philosophy
  • Health Risks of Contraception and Bras
  • Debunking the Serotonin Theory of Depression
  • Risks of Using SSRIs During Pregnancy
  • Critiquing Medical Guidelines
