About this listen
Have you ever experienced brain fog, strange moods, or suicidal thinking while on a prescription medication?
Do you wonder if your doctor gave you all the necessary warnings about the mental effects of what has been prescribed?
Do you sometimes think you might not need to be on all those drugs?
Chances are you have not been given the opportunity for informed consent because you were not told what is really known (and not known) about what the drug is doing in the body and brain, its possible side mental effects, what's known and not known about its safety, and the actual evidence regarding how well it works (or not).
Any drug that causes changes in mind, mood, emotion, or behavior is, by definition, a psychotropic agent, regardless of whether it is prescribed in a psychiatric setting. Psychiatric drugs have the potential to cause the very things they claim to treat, or worse. Even common, non-psychiatric medications can have profound mental effects.
In today's assembly line health care with 10-minute office visits, often with only a non-physician assistant or nurse, the quick fix of dispensing a prescription almost never includes a thorough discussion of the factors you would really need to make a well-considered decision about accepting a drug. This user-friendly no-nonsense guide empowers the health care consumer with the basics in order to make informed decisions about psychiatric drugs and other meds with unsuspected mind-bending effects.
Dr. Dolan is passionate about patient empowerment and believes being an informed consumer is the only protection against becoming a victim of your medications.

Dealing with chronic pain can be a nuisance and be damaging mentally and physically when it occurs daily. If you have ever felt this way, you most likely have already sought out other options. The problem is that most physicians want to throw conventional medication at the issues. When you get on medications, they most likely have a long list of terrifying side effects.

I wrote this mnemonic guide as an audiobook first to help you remember pharmacology drug names and principles quickly. While in the classroom your professors might say memorization doesn't matter, but you can't bring outside material to the board exam, so for this test, you do need to work on memory training. You already know the consequences of failing a class or board exam, so let's make sure that doesn't happen by getting pharmacology organized in your head once and for all.

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD, and more. Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either. Meanwhile, the stigma of the “mental illness” label - damaging and devastating on its own - can often prevent sufferers from getting the help they need. Brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen aims to change all that.

Happy Accidents is a fascinating, entertaining, and highly accessible look at the surprising role serendipity has played in some of the most important medical discoveries in the 20th century. What do penicillin, chemotherapy drugs, X-rays, Valium, the Pap smear, and Viagra have in common? They were each discovered accidentally, stumbled upon in the search for something else. In discussing medical breakthroughs, Dr. Morton Meyers makes a cogent, highly engaging argument for a more creative, rather than purely linear, approach to science. And it may just save our lives!

Looks solely at the side effects reported.
Thorough look at the side effects. good look at informed consent. I feel it's good to have a book like this as part of a medical education just as a sort of dissenting opinion and a word of caution that adverse reactions can and do occur. So, be careful with that prescription pad.

As someone who has experienced many of these effects from meditations it was interesting to learn about them in this format. I am definitely making changes as a result of what I learned in this book.

the author has apparently been wronged in the past..
I am a APRN PMHNP student almost finished with my courses and a nurse for many years. the author appears to have read every fda label on psychotropics and decided broadly the medications are insufficient. dangerous. and a scam.
I will admit that almost all psychotropic are dangerous, that admission is also with almost every single medication you take including supplements. for example eliquis a "blood thinner" increase your chance of bleeding or hemorrhagic stroke. how can evil MDs prescribe something so dangerous. ??the answer is risk per reward... studies show pts with a hx of a-fib. heart attack and stroke have improved outcomes on a "blood thinner".
same as psychotropics such as an SSRI or mood stabilizer. these medications are prescribed to MANAGE not cure people in true psychological misery. many patients in psychiatry have experienced unbelievable traumas.. and diet and exercise won't fix them. psych providers utilize the tools at our disposal to assist a pt manage these symptoms and it is a practice for no 2 pts are the same.
lastly all areas of medicine are not to the level of perfection and efficiency that the broad public may believe. and ofcourse there is misdiagnosis and over treatment and pharmaceutical corruption. but this book and author is so wildly inept and antagonistic that the layman reader may believe all of what this book is saying and think of themselves as informed. it's a tragedy this is on the audible platform.
lastly.. people if your dealing with something. don't give up hope. chin up. find a psych provider you trust, dont allow someone to diagnose you on the first visit.. go to therapy. be informed on medications. take it slow. take it with friends. take it easy.
