Dr. Mark Horowitz is an academic psychiatrist and an Honorary Clinical Researcher at UCL. In this Next Level Human Podcast episode, Dr. Jade and Dr. Mark discuss depression medications, their effect on the body, and the best way to come off these medications. Dr. Mark explains that these clinical drugs directly influence the brain, and it can take months or even years for the body to learn not to rely on them.
In addition, Dr. Mark explains the differences between addiction and physical dependence and how antidepressant drugs affect not only serotonin - a specific chemical in the body known as the “happy hormone” - but several other neurotransmitters.
Having been diagnosed with depression at a very young age, Dr. Mark has dedicated his career to studying this topic, knowing more about withdrawal symptoms, and helping patients with the same condition.
