In this episode I spoke with speaker, author and Food Network “Chopped” champion Brooke Siem. An award-winning chef, Brooke Siem is also an advocate for the safe de-prescribing of antidepressants. “May Cause Side Effects”, her debut memoir, chronicles her own experiences with antidepressants, withdrawal, and learning the skill of happiness.

We spoke about Brooke’s experience with psychiatric medications and the horrific withdrawal she went through when she came off them. I talk about my experience and my Dad’s experience with psych med withdrawal and Brooke shares what people need to know about taking psychiatric medications and coming off them.
