Shamana Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hi, I was wondering whether maybe we could start a petition to get David Healy, Joanna Moncrieff or someone like them on the Joe Rogan show to discuss the issues surrounding antidepressants and psychiatry in general. Personally I think it would be a great way to raise awareness about about the isssues surrounding antidepressants that are rarely or reluctantly covered in the media. Someone aired the idea the in the PSSD forum, but I thought we could get a lot more people behind it if we reached out to people suffering from harms of AD's in general and to make the topic of conversation the problems of antidepressants and biological psychiatry in general. David Healy or Joanna Moncrieff would be my favourite candidates to petition to get on the show, so if you can think of better options I'd love it hear it. Joe Rogan has on the largest audiences in the world, so the ripple effect from whatever will be discussed there will spread. Personally I think it's a great idea. Let me know what you think about it.

VitaminB Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 I listened to Robert Kennedy Jr.'s Rogan interview last night. RFK kept praising Rogan for the time he was given to explain the details of his stories, which he doesn't usually get. I agree that getting David Healy, Joanna Moncrieff, and Anders Sørensen on the show would allow them to speak freely to a large audience. I was on Seroquel from 2008-2016 because Seroquel doesn't cause akathisia (in my case) and all other drugs do. I am tapering slowly off Seroquel- got down to 393.75mg, Fall 2016 ... 3% taper still couldn't keep me from hospital. Hospital stay switched me to 300 clozapine/clozaril. Summer 2017: slowly cut and weighed clozapine/clozaril from 300mg to 275mg over 3 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
