Preparing for a Taper: Dr. Witt-Doerring, Apr/23

[[Li...]]

Another excellent video by Dr. Witt-Doerring!  The topic of this episode is how to set yourself up for success  before embarking on a psychiatric drug taper.  However, it also offers helpful information for individuals who are already tapering (e.g. the importance of breathwork for self-soothing; the importance of recognizing that withdrawal and recovery are non-linear).

 

Dr. Witt-Doerring’s guest is Sheila Wojciechowski, MS MHC — a mental health counselor/therapist from NY who has personal experience with psychiatric drug withdrawal.  Sheila works with the Inner Compass Initiative/The Withdrawal Project and other advocacy groups to provide information and guidance around safer medication tapering.
