Book Synopsis A Straight Talking Introduction to Psychiatric Drugs by : Joanna Moncrieff
Download or read book A Straight Talking Introduction to Psychiatric Drugs written by Joanna Moncrieff and published by Straight Talking Introductions Series. This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era when more people are taking psychiatric drugs than ever before, Joanna Moncrieff's explosive book challenges the claims for their mythical powers. Drawing on extensive research, she demonstrates that psychiatric drugs do not 'treat' or 'cure' mental illness by acting on hypothesised chemical imbalances or other abnormalities in the brain. There is no evidence for any of these ideas. Moreover, any relief the drugs may offer from the distress and disturbance of a mental disorder can come at great cost to people's physical health and their ability to function in day-to-day life. And, once on these drugs, coming off them can be very difficult indeed. This book is a wake-up call to the potential damage we are doing to ourselves by relying on chemical cures for human distress. Its clear, concise explanations will enable people to make a fully informed decision about the benefits and harms of these drugs and whether and how to come off them if they so choose.
