In this episode, Kelly debunks common myths about medications and discusses the importance of reclaiming personal power to create the right conditions for healing. She highlights the dangers of antidepressants, the active placebo effect, and how medications can perpetuate the very problems they purport to solve. Kelly also explores the link between mental illness and medication-induced impulsive violence around suicide and homicide. Topics covered in this episode include the role of victim consciousness in perpetuating the healthcare system, the metabolization of medications, and the epidemics of mental illness that medications can induce.
