Do Psych Meds Save Lives? The Answer Will Surprise You: New research with Dr. Teralyn and Therapist Jenn
Send us a textIs the esteemed combination of psychotherapy and psychiatric medication really the gold standard for mental health treatment, or have we been led astray by conventional wisdom? On today's episode of the Gaslit Truth Podcast, we challenge the mainstream belief and examine the influence of the pharmaceutical industry in shaping this narrative. As trained dialectical behavior therapists, we unravel the complexities surrounding therapeutic failures and question if it’s the medications rather than therapeutic interventions that often fall short. We take a critical look at educational materials, inviting listeners to share any textbooks that unwaveringly promote this combination.The placebo effect might just be the unsung hero in the story of antidepressants' perceived success. Join us as we dissect studies that pit antidepressants against placebos, revealing the often-overlooked power of psychotherapy as a standalone treatment, especially in severe cases of depression. We argue for the empowerment of therapists to lean into their therapeutic skills without defaulting to medication. Our conversation is particularly relevant for those in crisis, where the immediacy of medication might seem appealing but may not be the ultimate answer.As the therapy profession evolves, the tension between traditional and modern views becomes more apparent. Inspired by a young therapist's self-care controversy on TikTok, we explore how personal habits and lived experiences shape therapeutic approaches. The episode highlights the transformative power of therapy, encouraging therapists and consumers alike to share their stories. We remind listeners of the invaluable role community and support play in mental health care, inviting everyone to contribute their insights and join our ongoing conversation.
