What happens when one of psychiatry’s biggest critics meets one of its most respected defenders? I recently sat down with Awais Aftab—hailed by The Lancet as “one of psychiatry’s foremost public intellectuals" to discuss the CURRENT STATE OF PSYCHIATRY IN THE UNITED STATES He’s thoughtful, articulate, and willing to engage—something many in the field won’t do. For that, he has my respect. But… I couldn’t help but feel he was defending a sinking ship. Where I see institutional failure, he sees good intentions. Where I call for accountability, he offers grace. Was he dodging the core issues? Or offering a realistic defense? You decide. CONVERSATION REALLY STARTS AT 24 Minutes and 40 Seconds Watch me—one of psychiatry’s most outspoken critics—go head to head with one of its most respected defenders. Drop your thoughts below—respectfully. And thank you Awais Aftab for showing up. That matters.

For some people, antidepressant withdrawal can be brutal and leave them with life-changing injuries. It is often trivialised by doctors who don't mention that it can take some people 1-2 years to come off these medications. #SSRIs #ProtractedWithdrawal #Tapering

The WSJ takes on benzo harm- what does this mean? The Wall Street Journal just exposed the long-term harms of benzodiazepines, including benzodiazepine-induced neurological dysfunction. The FDA is finally calling for proper tapering guidelines, and the American Society of Addiction Medicine just published new recommendations. But why did it take over 40 years for this to happen? #WallStreetJournal #Benzodiazepines #ProtractedWithdrawal
