Between Prescription & Reality: Brooke Siem Speaks Out About Antidepressant Drug Withdrawal


Listen Later

Brooke Siem, Chopped Champion Chef and author of the memoir “May Cause Side Effects,” sits down with me in this episode for an unscripted conversation on the alarming and often unspoken side effects of psychiatric drugs. 


Brooke shares candidly about being put on depression medication at the age of 15, as well as her journey through a two-year withdrawal process to finally reach emotional and mental freedom at the age of 31.


In this episode we discuss the risks of misdiagnosis, the impact of pharmaceutical companies on the medical industry, and tools to support holistic mental wellness.  


We also address the very personal and complex choice surrounding medication, and the importance of informed consent.
