the SSRI lie: the fraudulent study that laid the groundwork for psychiatry's greatest deception [preview]

In this eye-opening episode, we delve into previous BFTB guest Bruce Levine's explosive new article from CounterPunch (released in January 2024), "Scientific Misconduct and Fraud: The Final Nail in Psychiatry’s Antidepressant Coffin." Levine dissects the scandalous misuse of data in the STAR*D study, shedding light on the overestimated efficacy of antidepressants. We unravel the true impact of SSRIs and SNRIs and confront the disturbing reality of their side effects, including sexual dysfunction (PSSD) and withdrawal symptoms. This discussion is crucial for anyone navigating the complicated web of the bio-medical mental health system, highlighting the necessity of informed self-advocacy and calling out the suppression of such vital information by the mainstream media. Levine’s article is a critique as well as a call to action for transparency and change in psychiatric care. Tune in to empower yourself with knowledge that the establishment would rather keep in the shadows and learn how to better navigate your own path to healing and wholeness.Read the full article here: https://www.counterpunch.org/2024/01/17/scientific-misconduct-and-fraud-the-final-nail-in-psychiatrys-antidepressant-coffin/Connect with Bruce or read more of his work at https://brucelevine.net/Enjoyed this episode?
