"Making Informed Choices: The Possibility of Mental Health Recovery Without Medication"
SHOW GUEST: Lisabeth Riis Cooper
Emotional distress has many causes and can be a normal reaction to pain, stress, major life changes, trauma
and social isolation. Distress can't simply be reduced to a biochemical imbalance. Lisabeth Riis Cooper
shares with our audience evidence-based research on psychotropic medications which prove people can and do
recover from extreme emotional distress, often without the prolonged use of medications. A paradigm-changing
show, Riis Cooper believes families and individuals can make informed choices about medication use or non-use
to optimize health, personal recovery goals and quality of life.
