Medicating Normal
@medicatingnormalAbout
"Medicating Normal", feature length documentary, 76 minutes Combining cinema verité and investigative journalism, "Medicating Normal" follows the journey of five Americans – a newly married couple, an army combat veteran, a student, and a waitress. All suffered from problems that used to be considered part of the normal fluctuations of human emotion—mild depression, anxiety, sleeplessness—and all but one were seriously debilitated by the psychoactive drugs commonly prescribed to treat these issues. "Medicating Normal" is the untold story of what can happen when profit-driven medicine intersects with human beings in distress.

Before going to law school, he worked as a freelance photographer and, before that, coached rowing. His life was upended for 4.5 years after he got off an #antidepressant way too quickly. The harmful effects of #withdrawal were exacerbated by his being prescribed a #benzodiazepine that he was advised would help with horrific #insomnia, which was one of the symptoms of antidepressant withdrawal. #healing #support #depression #Effexor #valium #temazepam #hope RELEVANT LINKS: Book, "Darkness Visible" by William Styron: https://www.amazon.com/Darkness-Visible-Madness-William-Styron/dp/0679736395 Laura Delano: https://www.lauradelano.com Benzobuddies: https://benzobuddies.org Baylissa, withdrawal coach: https://baylissafrederick.com Jennifer Swan YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jenniferswanphd
