Lack of trust in science is a social ill. But those scientists who've allowed themselves to be co-opted by industry interests into misusing science for commercial gain, must also shoulder significant responsibility for such erosion of trust. So many wrongly overlook this.

#petition to MAKE #TAPERING PSYCH MEDS SAFER AND MORE HUMANE is endorsed by Mark Horowitz, Adele Framer, Anne Guy, IIPDW, Anders Sørensen, Jim van Os change.org/p/make-taperin…… #antidepressants #psychtwitter
Precisely ZERO prescribers in the UK have reported a case of Protracted Withdrawal Disorder. This is the SNOMED code that they can activate to do so. Make sure you tell your prescriber to activate it!!! facebook.com/groups/worldta…
Patients shouldn't have to play doctor and pharmacist in order to get themselves off psychotropic drugs with minimal harm. And yet that is what's generally required. Read this comment, and sign the petition. chng.it/6pCtzM6FYp via @Change
In 2020, Germany spent $812 million on antidepressants. Spain: $649 million. Italy: $456 million. How much did they spend on SAFE TAPERING? change.org/p/make-taperin… #antidepressants

Low potency liquid versions of all psych meds enabling people to measure out really low dosages: a big step towards making tapering easier. Big Pharma: you can do it... it’s a new market! #Bigpharma, #worldtaperingday
The understatement of the century is ………describing AKATHISIA as ‘inner restlessness’ Downplayed and inadequately described to the point of obscurity …….. like most iatrogenic harm.

Not infinity, but 8 billion, Earth's total human population. No matter how many people get psychiatric treatment, mostly drugs, psychiatry claims those who most need treatment aren't getting it. Since they can't identify that population, they're going for 100% market penetration.
With personalized medicine in psychiatry conferences springing up like mushrooms after the rain, worth pausing to remember that the number needed to treat (on the basis of solid RCT data) remains at approximately infinity.

Serotonine is omnipresent in our body, no wonder it's associated with almost everything we do, just like our immune system. This does not mean that influencing serotonine or the imune system is a solution for everything, which we are often led to believe
