The Antidepressant Solution by Joseph Glenmullen

The Antidepressant Solution by Joseph Glenmullen

The storm of controversy over the use - and misuse - of antidepressants continues unabated, with recent, more stringent government warnings that they may cause agitation, anxiety, hostility and even violent or suicidal tendencies. More than six million Britons take today's popular antidepressants. Harvard Medical School's distinguished Dr Joseph Glenmullen leads the charge in warning the public that antidepressants are over prescribed, under regulated and terribly misunderstood in their side and withdrawal effects. "The Antidepressant Solution" is the first book to call attention to the drugs' vicious circle: despite the fact that many people are ready to go off these drugs, they are needlessly still on them because either the patient or their doctor mistake antidepressant withdrawal for depressive relapse. Unfortunately, family doctors who are not familiar with how to safely wean patients off of them write seventy percent of prescriptions for these drugs. Now, however, "The Antidepressant Solution" offers a step-by-step guide for patients and doctors alike. Written by the premier authority in the field, "The Antidepressant Solution" is an invaluable book for all those concerned with going through the process - from friends and family members to the doctors and patients themselves.
