#108 - Rethinking Psychiatric Medication With Dr Josef Witt-Doerring MD
About this conversation:
Dr.Josef Witt-Doering discusses the problems with the current approach to medication in psychiatry and the medical system as a whole. He highlights the overreliance on medication without addressing the root causes of mental health issues.
The conversation also delves into the missed risks and side effects of medication, as well as the influence of pharmaceutical companies and regulatory bodies. The impact of time constraints on patient care is also explored, with a focus on the need for more comprehensive and personalized approaches to treatment.
Ahmad and Josef discuss the decline of empathy in medicine. They also explore the history of medical mistakes and the over-reliance on medication. The dangers of sedatives, protracted withdrawal from benzodiazepines and antidepressants, and persistent sexual dysfunction with antidepressants are also discussed.
Ahmad and Josef discuss the fear of consequences and the impact of social and political issues on professionals. They also explore the power of financial resources and the toll the situation takes on mental health. The conversation highlights the limitations of free speech and the pressure to stay silent. They discuss the importance of speaking up and finding happiness in doing the right thing. The conversation concludes with advice on protecting mental health and living authentically.
Josef is the host of the “Life on Less Meds” podcast, which reveals the truth about drug side effects and the best strategies to manage them. Josef is a board-certified psychiatrist with a specialization in identifying and treating psychiatric adverse drug reactions.
In 2020, he co-founded a private practice dedicated to assessing and treating patients suffering from these reactions and has since become a trusted expert in the field, particularly when it comes to severe withdrawal injuries.
I hope you enjoy the conversation.
