CONNECT WITH ME:

Not all psychiatric medications are created equal—especially when it comes to stopping them.

After working with over 500 patients over the last five years, I’ve seen which medications are relatively easy to come off, and which ones can lead to severe, even long-lasting, withdrawal symptoms. In this video, I rank the most common psychiatric drugs from easiest to hardest to discontinue, based on real-world clinical experience.

We’ll cover antidepressants, antipsychotics, benzodiazepines, stimulants, mood stabilizers, and sleep medications. Whether you're on Lexapro, Effexor, Klonopin, Adderall, or Abilify, this tier list will help you understand the risks of withdrawal and why some medications are more challenging to stop than others.

Watching the videos, or getting answers to comments/question, does not establish a doctor-patient relationship. If you have your own doctor, these videos can maybe help you prepare for your discussion with him. We do our best to spread awareness with these videos, but for legal reasons we can’t answer health questions in the comments. If you leave questions, we’ll make videos about common questions in the future! If we catch incorrect health information, hate speech, illegal solicitation of drugs in the comments, we will remove them.
