Can a single panic attack change the course of your life? Join us as we unravel the powerful narrative of That Functional Nurse, a 29-year-old ICU nurse whose journey with Lexapro began after an overwhelming panic attack. She faced unimaginable stress after her brother's sudden death and starting a high-pressure job. Despite initial relief from the medication, her story takes a dramatic turn when she decides to taper off after seven years, revealing the profound physical and emotional challenges of withdrawal. We unpack her ordeal and provide invaluable insights for those on similar paths.

This episode goes beyond a single story to explore the broader landscape of mental health, especially among young professionals navigating high-stress environments. We discuss how age and life stages influence one’s self-awareness and response to psychiatric medication. Despite immense grief and pressure, our guest finds a transformative path of self-discovery and healing. Her experience serves as a powerful reminder that even in the darkest times, there is a silver lining if you're willing to look for it.
