If you're on antidepressants and your sex drive has completely disappeared, I want you to know that you're not broken, and you don't have to choose between feeling mentally well and having a fulfilling sex life. SSRIs like Lexapro, Zoloft, and Prozac are genuinely life-changing for so many people, but nobody warns you that they can tank your desire, make orgasms nearly impossible, and quietly wreck your relationship in the process. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why this happens, and more importantly, what you can actually do about it. From simple timing hacks to alternative treatments that are showing real promise. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why SSRIs suppress desire and arousal on a hormonal level — and the one hack that can reduce side effects as soon as tonight • How to rebuild your sex drive when both you and your partner are medicated (yes, this is more common than you think) • The alternative treatments — TMS therapy, ketamine, and psilocybin — that are helping people get off antidepressants entirely More Dr. Emily:  • Shop With Emily!

Send a textFeeling better shouldn't feel like a mystery. We dig into the real mechanics of antidepressants—how SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, MAOIs, and atypicals shift brain chemistry over time—and why the two-to-six week window makes sense once you see how stabilization actually works. Along the way, we unpack the biggest myths: no, these meds don't rewrite your personality, and no, they don't create the craving cycle you see with opioids or benzodiazepines. What they can do is give you a steadier emotional floor so therapy and daily habits finally stick.We also talk about why pairing medication with therapy changes the game. When your baseline moves from chaos to calm, you make clearer choices and build momentum. Hypnosis shows up here as a clinical tool, not a stage trick—useful for downshifting anxiety, reframing pain, and training attention so it stops feeding the spiral. Think of it as cognitive strength training: short, focused sessions that unlock better days while medication does its quieter work in the background.If you've ever asked, “Will I still be me?” try a sharper question: “When was I my best me?” Answering that helps shape treatment choices, from activating meds for low energy to options with fewer sexual side effects, and it gives therapy a specific target to build toward. We offer practical steps for the in-between weeks—mood tracking, micro-rituals, honest check-ins—and a reminder to taper with your prescriber if you're making changes. Stability isn't perfection; it's the space where joy, focus, and connection become possible again.If this conversation helps, share it with someone who's stuck in the fog.

In this Axel Schura Show episode, I share the incredible story of how I accidentally consumed psilocybin mushrooms through mislabeled chocolate and the blissful, fear-free journey that followed. We dive into groundbreaking clinical research, including the John Hopkins study where 60% to 80% of cancer patients found significant relief from depression and the paralyzing fear of death.

Send a textA four-hour swim through rough seas sets the tone for resilience, and we channel that grit into a clear-eyed tour of antidepressants that actually help people get their lives back. We pick up our series on depression treatment with a practical, plain-English guide to SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, MAOIs, and atypicals—how each class works on serotonin, norepinephrine, or dopamine, what side effects to expect, and why some meds also ease nerve pain or insomnia. If you've ever wondered why results take two to six weeks, we break down the brain science: receptors need time to recalibrate and new pathways to form, which is why steady dosing and patience pay off.We share how we approach titration, when to hold, when to adjust, and how pharmacogenomic tools like Genesight can reduce trial-and-error by flagging side-effect risks up front. You'll hear why bupropion can boost energy and focus with fewer sexual side effects, when mirtazapine's sedation and appetite increase are a feature not a bug, and why TCAs and MAOIs still matter for tough, treatment-resistant cases. Most importantly, we explain why medication is a tool, not the destination: better outcomes come when meds lower symptom intensity and therapy builds lasting skills—sleep, exercise, reframing, and relationship repair.We also get candid about the real-world mess: insurance hurdles that delay payments and care, and how clinics navigate those roadblocks to keep patients supported. It's an unfiltered, compassionate look at what works, what to watch for, and how to advocate for the help you deserve. Press play to get smarter about your options, prepare for part three on myths and misconceptions, and take a step toward relief that lasts.If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs clarity, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find solid mental health guidance.FIND ME:My Website: https://motorcityhypnotist.com/podcastMy social media links: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/motorcityhypnotist/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCjjLNcNvSYzfeX0uHqe3gATwitter: https://twitter.com/motorcityhypnoInstagram: motorcityhypnoFREE HYPNOSIS GUIDEhttps://detroithypnotist.convertri.com/podcast-free-hypnosis-guidePlease also subscribe to the show and leave a review.(Stay with me as later in the podcast, I'll be giving away a free gift to all listeners!)Change your thinking, change your life!Laugh hard, run fast, be kind.

Send a textEver been told “antidepressants change your personality” or “you'll be on them forever”? We're cutting through the noise with a clear, grounded tour of how modern antidepressants work, why they were discovered by accident, and what real people should know before starting, switching, or stopping. We share the surprising roots of MAOIs and tricyclics, how SSRIs became mainstream, and where ECT fits today for treatment-resistant cases. No jargon, no scare tactics—just the essentials you can use to make smarter choices with your clinician.We break down brain basics in plain English: neurons, synapses, and the roles of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine in mood and motivation. You'll hear why reuptake inhibition matters, what changes to expect first, and how to spot common side effects like sleep shifts, nausea, and sexual dysfunction. Just as important, we draw a bright line between dependence and addiction, and explain why tapering off—never quitting cold turkey—protects your body while you pivot your plan.Along the way, we talk stigma, ask the questions your provider hopes you'll bring, and explore how medication pairs with therapy, sleep, movement, and community to create lasting relief. Plus, a gripping “Winner of the Week” rescue, show updates from the Motor City Hypnotist studio, and a quick adoption spotlight for Minnie from Detroit Dog Rescue.

Are you on medications you're not sure you still need, but too afraid to stop?In this episode of The Balanced Body Podcast, I'm joined by Stacey D'Angelo, pharmacist specializing in deprescribing and pharmacogenetics. We're diving into what it really means to safely reduce medications like antidepressants, anti-anxiety drugs, PPIs (acid reflux medications), and hormonal birth control — and why tapering properly matters more than most people realize.We also unpack pharmacogenetics (PGx) — a DNA-based test that predicts how your body responds to medications. This personalized approach can reduce the frustrating trial-and-error many women experience, especially with mental health prescriptions.If you've ever wondered:“Do I still need this medication?”“Why do I feel worse when I try to come off?”“Is there a safer, more personalized way to approach my health?”This conversation will open your eyes.Connect with Stacey:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yoursimplehealthLinkedIn: Your Simple Health, Stacey D'AngeloWebsite: www.simplehealthpharmacist.comThanks for listening.

Today we're having an uncomfortable but very necessary conversation about antidepressants and the theory that these drugs work for those with depression by correcting imbalanced chemicals in their brain.Our guest to discuss this topic is Joanna Moncrieff, a Professor of Psychiatry at University College London, and works as a consultant psychiatrist in the NHS. She is author of numerous scientific papers including a major review that showed there was little evidence to support the idea that depression is caused by a serotonin abnormality. Her most recent book "Chemically Imbalanced: the making and unmaking of the serotonin myth” is what we're going to be discussing today.This was a complete eye opener for me. For years I believed in the pharmaceutical washed message that antidepressants worked because of a genuine brain chemical imbalance that we corrected with medications. This is not proven.Today we'll discuss over-use and misrepresentation of psychiatric drugs in the public sphere, the changing philosophy of mental health and how we got to a point where over 8 million people in the UK use antidepressants.We discuss what serotonin is, how we measure it in the body, why the imbalance theory is inconclusive, whether antidepressants have good evidence that they work and their many side effects.I want to make it clear that this episode is not meant to shame or belittle anyone on medications for mental health, but provide accurate information about how we can safely treat these problems and offer informed consent weighing up the pros and cons of medications like antidepressants. The use of these medications has well recognised withdrawal and dependency effects and should not be stopped without strict supervision of your medical practitioner. We've also linked to the Maudsley deprescribing guidelines here in the show notes for practitioners educating themselves on how to do this with their patients.Chemically Imbalanced BookWebsite: https://joannamoncrieff.com/

A board-certified psychiatrist trained at one of the most prestigious psychiatric institutions in the world was fired for refusing to put a young woman on medication after the last prescription nearly killed her. Dr. Aruna Nammi left the system and built something radically different, combining functional medicine with 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic wisdom to reverse conditions psychiatry calls chronic and incurable. We go deep on why depression is a disconnection syndrome, the three root causes of all disease, what ancient traditions understood about psychosis that modern psychiatry ignores, and the shift in consciousness that may be unfolding on this planet right now.Trinergy Health Website Visit Center for Integrated Behavioral HealthDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Dr. McFillin was a guest on the popular Health Ranger Report. This is the full interview. He was joined by Tracy Thurman-a person of faith until a cardiologist—not a psychiatrist—put her on Prozac for "energy." Within weeks, her connection to God vanished. She became a materialist atheist for seven years. In this episode, Tracy and Dr. McFillin expose what they call the psychiatric industrial complex's "spiritual weapon of war"—and why these drugs are designed to make you feel dead inside and that experience is measured as "working". A fascinating episode featuring a topic rarely discussed.

SSRI antidepressants are one of the most harmful medications on the market, and because of just how many people they are given to (often for no good reason as only a minority of patients benefit from SSRIs) they have had a profound effect on the consciousness of our entire society This article will review some of the more common side effects of SSRIs (and SNRIs), such as losing the ability to have sex, becoming numb to life, becoming severely agitated or imbalanced (sometimes to the point one becomes violently psychotic or commits suicide), losing your mind, and the development of birth defects Like many other stimulant drugs (e.g., cocaine) SSRIs can be very difficult to quit. Because of this, patients frequently get severely ill when they attempt to stop them (withdrawals affect roughly half of SSRI users). Worse still, it is often extremely difficult to withdraw from them and very few doctors know how to safely facilitate this Due to widespread denial in psychiatry about the issues with their drugs the common SSRI side effects (e.g., withdrawals) are often misinterpreted as a sign the individual had a pre-existing mental illness and needs more of the drug — which all too often then leads to catastrophic events for the over-medicated patient This article will provide the critical information SSRI patients are rarely warned about and resources for patients already trapped in challenging mental health situations  

Dr. Joanna Moncrieff is a British psychiatrist and author of “Chemically Imbalanced: The Making and Unmaking of the Serotonin Myth.” She challenges the long-held belief that depression is caused by a lack of the hormone serotonin.“The serotonin myth … was first put out there in the 1960s, then picked up by the pharmaceutical industry in the 1990s and widely propagated by them as part of their campaign to sell SSRIs, their new generation of antidepressants,” she said.Contrary to what many people still believe, there's no evidence that depression is caused by a lack of serotonin in the brain, Moncrieff said.“A few years ago, we published what's called an umbrella review, a sort of meta review of all the different areas of research that have looked at this. … And we show that there is no consistent or convincing evidence in any of these areas of research for any association between serotonin and depression. So hence, the idea is a myth,” she said.In our interview, she explains how this narrative took hold and how it reshaped modern psychiatry.So what causes depression if not a lack of serotonin? Dr. Moncrieff, who is a professor of critical and social psychiatry at University College London, regards depression as “meaningful human reactions to the circumstances of life now, and that is indeed how people used to think about them.”It's not a biological disease, she said, but a normal reaction that anyone may experience at times throughout life.“It's not something that we naturally just get over in a couple of weeks. It can take weeks and months of grieving, even for a short-term relationship that's finished.”To label deep sadness as a pathological medical condition that needs to be fixed with drugs is the wrong approach and precludes seeing a person “who is suffering, who is going through a period of difficulty and trying to work out what that is and how we can support them with it,” Moncrieff said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Three facts are scientifically undisputed: Serotonin is essential for fetal brain development. SSRIs disrupt the serotonin system. SSRIs freely cross the placenta. So why are pregnant women being told these drugs carry "little or no risk"?In this rare head-to-head debate, Dr. Adam Urato—maternal-fetal medicine specialist and FDA expert panelist—faces off against Dr. Robert Chen, a psychiatry resident willing to do what most of his colleagues won't: step into the arena and defend the establishment position.What unfolds is a striking conversation where both physicians actually agree on more than you'd expect—including that informed consent is failing pregnant women, that the chemical imbalance theory is dead, and that "untreated depression" is a misleading frame designed to sell drugs. The uncomfortable question neither side can fully answer: If SSRIs are correcting depression, why does the research show worse outcomes for women who stay on them?This isn't anti-medication propaganda. It's the conversation your doctor isn't trained to have with you.Listen before you fill that prescription.

This "Listen Again" episode was one of our favorites, and it deserves a re-visit! Dr. Jenni and Kim talk to Dr. Craig Heacock, an adolescent and adult psychiatrist and addiction specialist in Colorado who hosts the psychiatric storytelling podcast “Back from the Abyss.” He is a co-therapist in the Phase 3 trial of MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy for PTSD and has particular interest in the use of psychedelics to treat severe mood disorders and PTSD. In this conversation, we talk about psychiatric drugs and their effect on our sex drive. Dive into this fascinating conversation for the first time, or again...with Dr. Craig Heacock.

This week, we are joined by Chris Masterjohn, PhD. Chris is a nutritional scientist, a former professor, and the founder of Mitome. With a PhD in nutritional science and years of research in mitochondrial biology, Chris's work focuses on translating peer-reviewed science into practical tools for human health. At Mitome, Dr. Masterjohn pioneered the first analysis designed to measure mitochondrial respiratory chain function directly, identifying individual energy bottlenecks and guiding personalized science-backed protocols to optimize the system responsible for over 90% of cellular energy production. His mission is to bring mitochondrial testing out of the rare disease space and into everyday health. In this interview, we discuss why so little is understood about the role serotonin plays in the body and how our mitochondria might play a part in the experince of antidepressant withdrawal. *** Thank you for being with us to listen to the podcast and read our articles this year.

Send us a textSome years don't just challenge you—they level you. After losing my dad and a dear friend, my body crashed, my energy evaporated, and work I love got painfully scarce. The worst part? I couldn't name why. Steroids, sleep hacks, strict routines—nothing touched the deep, whole-body ache or the fog that made simple tasks feel like mountains. So I did the uncomfortable thing: I kept asking questions until I got real answers.What finally clicked was a second diagnosis layered on my rheumatoid arthritis—fibromyalgia. Suddenly the relentless fatigue, unrefreshing sleep, and unpredictable pain made sense. With my doctor, I started Cymbalta and doubled down on an anti-inflammatory approach to food, cutting sugar and refined carbs and trying carnivore short-term. Within days, my mood lifted and the pain dialed down just enough to start moving forward. Not cured, but hopeful. Not sprinting, but finally walking without shame.That's where a new motto was born: Stack Gold Bricks In 26. Each brick stands for a pillar—health, family, faith, finances, real estate deals, learning, generosity. Big wins are big bricks. Small habits are coins. Both count. I refuse to live in all-or-nothing mode that burns you out and leaves you with nothing to show. This year I'm leaning into practical education—tight YouTube trainings, focused half-day workshops, and back-to-basics real estate strategies for lead generation, fair offers, creative exits, and disciplined follow-through. The market is noisy, but the fundamentals work when you do.If last year bruised you too, you're not alone. Start with one brick you can place today: book the test, ask for help, prep a low-inflammation meal, or do ten minutes of focused work. We'll build momentum together—patiently, honestly, and on purpose. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs a lift, and leave a review to tell me your first brick for 2026. Let's make this the year the small wins stack into something solid. Support the showThanks again for listening.

20% of Aussies with depression don't respond positively to antidepressant medication. In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by Co-Director of Health and Policy at The University of Sydney's Brain and Mind Centre, Professor Ian Hickie, who explains why antidepressants work well for many people — and fail badly for others. Drawing on new Australian research, involving more than 15,000 Australians, Professor Hickie unpacks the evidence that shows depression is not one condition, but many, each with distinct biological drivers. Headlines: Some of Australia’s most prominent religious leaders have urged the government to halt their hate speech reforms, Venezuela’s opposition leader has presented her Nobel Peace Prize to US President Donald Trump, and the mother of one of Elon Musk’s fourteen children is suing X.

Why do so many people with depression struggle to stop their antidepressants? What if the answer isn't about willpower — but about missing nutrients your brain needs to function?  Dr. James Greenblatt has spent 30 years in inpatient psychiatry. He watched patients go from one medication to two, then three, then five. Suicide rates kept climbing. And he started asking: What if the brain is simply missing what it needs?

On this episode of The Aluna Experience Podcast, I talk to William who shares his first time journeying with both Ayahuasca and San PedroWilliam is a curious soul who answered the call to commune with plant medicine to better understand himself after a called off engagement and a career turn. He shares his experience tapering off of anti depressants and what it was like being able to feel again.He shares the impact of breathwork—uncovering pent-up anger, resentment, and sadness. His experience with ayahuasca— a gentle journey that revealed who he was beyond his conditioned identities and stories, and San Pedro— a harrowing journey of surrender that taught him to allow himself to be cared for.alunahealingcenter.com@aluna_healing_centerbrianahata.com@bri.anahata

Depression tanks your libido. Then you finally get help with antidepressants—and your sex drive tanks even more. If this is you, you're not broken. You're dealing with a real, common side effect that nobody wants to talk about.In this episode, I break down the double whammy of depression and SSRIs on your sex life: how depression shuts down motivation (including for sex), why antidepressants compound the problem by affecting serotonin and dopamine, and how orgasm difficulties create a feedback loop that kills desire even further.I also share my personal story—how I dealt with depression, the mental scripts generating self-hatred that my brain was trying to protect me from, and how I got off meds through coaching and massive self-compassion work. Literally re-writing the thoughts in my head changed everything.We cover: what you can actually do about it (medication options, body-based approaches, relationship support), why this isn't your fault, and how to stop choosing between mental health and a satisfying sex life.Quick note: I'm not a medical doctor—this is educational, not medical advice.

In this episode, Monica sits down with holistic psychiatrist, NYT bestselling author, and mum of two daughters, Dr. Kelly Brogan, to unpack why so many successful women feel numb, disconnected, anxious, and unfulfilled—even after “achieving the dream life.” They talk about the secret cost of being “high-functioning,” the trauma of over-mothering and over-performing, the truth about antidepressants and emotional suppression, and why reclaiming your feminine is the key to unlocking embodied safety, pleasure, and power. ALSO INSIDE THE CONVERSATION:

Millions of women in their 30s–50s are being told they're “depressed” when their brains and hormones are simply changing. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz to unpack the truth about midlife mood shifts, rage, and the hormonal fluctuations that mimic depression but aren't the same. We break down the science of perimenopause, why women are so often misdiagnosed, and how decades of excluding women from research left major gaps in understanding how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape the brain. Dr. Gilberg-Lenz reveals how hormonal changes—starting up to ten years before menopause—can transform mood, cognition, and stress, and how modern science is finally catching up to just how powerfully hormones influence the mind. About the guest:Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a board-certified OB/GYN and integrative women's health expert who blends conventional medicine with Ayurvedic training. A USC-trained physician with a residency at Cedars-Sinai, she supports women from adolescence through menopause and is the author of Menopause Bootcamp (Harper Wave, 2022). Her work focuses on demystifying midlife, challenging ageism in healthcare, and empowering women with science-based guidance.

Antidepressants like SSRIs are strongly linked to hyponatremia, a dangerous drop in blood sodium that disrupts nerve and muscle function The risk is highest in the first two weeks of treatment, when sodium levels plummet to life-threatening lows that trigger confusion, seizures, or fainting Older adults, especially women over 80, are among the most vulnerable, with nearly 1 in 15 experiencing profound sodium loss after starting these drugs Symptoms of drug-induced low sodium often mimic worsening anxiety or depression, leading to misdiagnosis and unnecessary increases in medication Natural strategies like optimizing nutrition, restoring key vitamins and minerals, daily movement, sunlight exposure, and restful sleep offer safer ways to support mood and energy without creating sodium imbalances
