Psychiatric Medications
Withdrawal from psychiatric medications can be very dangerous. To learn more about the risks related to cold-turkey or sudden withdrawal, please read ['Your Drug May Be Your Problem - How and Why to Stop Taking Psychiatric Medications'] by Peter Breggin, M.D. and David Cohen, Ph.D. Dr. Breggin is a Psychiatrist, and Harvard Medical School graduate.
If you make the decision to withdraw from psychiatric medications, you will need to do so with consultation from a licensed health care provider or treatment facility.
Withdrawal must be done slowly and carefully, with medical guidance and support. Holistic practitioners insist that proper nutrition and supplementation are vital during this period.
If you are taking medications, and are concerned about possible drug interactions or other side effects from the use of dietary supplements and herbs - visit the [American Nutraceutical Association] and check with your doctor.
See the ‘Medication Withdrawal’ section of this site for additional links and resources.
Additional Warning
If you are suffering from symptoms of “mental illness”, it is best to rule out any form of organic brain injury. Please refer to a physician for a C-T Scan, MRI, or other scientifically measurable means recommended.
