What I’ve Learned Helping People Withdraw from Psychiatric Drugs

This month marks two years since I began supporting people in their recovery from psychiatric medications. During this time, I’ve learned a lot—and made a fair number of mistakes—which turned out to be incredibly valuable experiences. In this article, I want to share some of the insights I’ve gained. Helping others through the difficult process of psychiatric drug withdrawal and healing isn’t just about theoretical knowledge—it’s also a profound lesson in humility, empathy, and patience.
