Guests Christopher Crotty and David Carmichael discuss the relationship between antidepressants and akathisia side effects, including extreme violence and homicide.

The power of repetition is undeniable. A lie, repeated often enough, can become the accepted truth. This "illusion of truth effect" applies to all areas of life, including healthcare. In the case of medications like SSRIs and SNRIs, which are commonly prescribed for depression and anxiety, the illusion of truth can have serious consequences.  The illusion of truth can lead patients to underestimate risks. They may see these medications advertised as safe and effective, without fully understanding the potential downsides. This can lead them to blindly accept the doctor's recommendations without questioning or seeking further information. Don't let the illusion of truth cloud your judgment—ask questions. This is where informed consent becomes crucial.Can Antidepressants Induce Suicide, Violence & Bizarre Behavior?Note: This podcast episode is designed solely for informational and educational purposes, without endorsing or promoting any specific medical treatments.

In this compelling podcast episode, we spoke with  Kristin Reihman, MD — physician, mother, author, and Lyme disease survivor — as she candidly shares her personal journey as both a patient and doctor. Beyond merely treating symptoms, Dr. Reihman advocates for a holistic approach to health, challenging the conventional norms of the allopathic medical system. Having recovered herself from a debilitating case of Lyme over a decade ago, Dr. Reihman knows all too well what it is to live with a body that feels like it's falling apart, a brain that has forgotten how to do simple math, and the fear that you're going to die from an illness that is invisible to most people. She also knows how to make a complete recovery, and has done that for herself. Now, she is on a mission to help as many people as possible recover their own most vibrant versions of themselves, and get back to living their amazing lives. She shares her favorite tools, practices, and mindset shifts for whole-person healing and wellness in her book, on weekly episodes of her Healing Grove Podcast, and in the online communities she cultivates, including the Healing Grove Membership, on Instagram, and in her latest offering, the Life After Lyme Coaching Program. We delve into the intricacies of American physicians' training, highlighting the need for a more comprehensive understanding of health. Dr. Kristin Reihman's story takes an unexpected turn as she shares her principled decision to leave a local hospital network and traditional practice due to her stance against a mandatory vaccine. This bold move becomes the focal point of our conversation, sparking reflections on values, medical freedom and divine intervention.Kristin Reihman, MDFamily Hope CenterThe Healing Grove Podcast: Kristin Reihman, MD - YouTubeInstagram @kristinreihmanmdLink to Ebook: Life After LymeReceive $10.00 off of Life After Lyme ebook at checkout: RadGenPodcastNote: This podcast episode is designed solely for informational and educational purposes, without endorsing or promoting any specific medical treatments.
