Thinking about trying medication or going back on it? This episode is for you!

I share my honest thoughts on medication, how it can be helpful, how to navigate mental blocks around taking it, what NOT to do when considering medication, and what to do if medication hasn’t worked for you.

  • My honest thoughts on medication as a tool for recovery
  • Why medication is not a cure, but a supportive tool
  • Common mental blocks around taking medication and how to get past them
  • The biggest mistakes people make when considering medication
