サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In this episode, we dive into the complicated, often misunderstood world of depression and antidepressants. There's a lot of misinformation out there — from the idea that these medications are miracle cures to the fear that they might do more harm than good. Drawing from over 20 years of clinical experience, I share insights into how antidepressants like SSRIs work, why they’re often helpful, and when they might not be the right fit. We talk about the importance of distinguishing between unipolar and bipolar depression, how the wrong treatment can sometimes lead to serious consequences, and why a personalized approach is so critical. Whether you're currently on medication, considering it, or just trying to better understand what’s going on in your own mind or in the life of someone you care about, this episode is for you. My hope is that this conversation helps at least one person ask the right questions to their physician and get on the right path to healing.
