  • Dear Friends,With over six decades of experience as a clinical psychologist, I've seen many trends come and go in mental health treatment. But rarely have I encountered information as potentially game-changing as what I'm sharing with you today.In 2010, I interviewed journalist Robert Whitaker about his book Anatomy of an Epidemic on my NPR-affiliated radio show. The revelations in that conversation were so profound that I recently invited him back for an update, 14 years later.This follow-up interview may be the most important broadcast in my 20-year history of hosting this program.Whitaker's research exposes how the pharmaceutical industry has influenced American psychiatry, leading to the widespread prescription of antidepressants (SSRIs) to tens, if not hundreds of millions of people worldwide. He ushers ample data to show that these medications are not only often ineffective but may be making many patients worse.Major media outlets are not covering this story. To me this suggests a concerning alliance between Big Pharma, psychiatry, and the press. I urge you to listen to this interview. After listening, I encourage you to explore Whitaker's website, madinamerica.com, for more in-depth information.I’m not trying to be sensationalistic. My aim is to empower you with knowledge that the mainstream media isn't providing. I believe you deserve to know the full story about treatments that may profoundly impact your well-being.Remember, good health is worth fighting for. Sometimes that fight begins with seeking out uncomfortable truths.Until next time,Dr. Richard Louis MillerP.S. If you find this information valuable, please share it widely. The more people who understand this issue, the better chance we have of creating positive change in our approach to mental health treatment.Mind Body Health & Politics is a reader-supported publication, where I share the tools and insights I've gathered over my 64-year career.
