Loving the shorts and the vids in general, Dr. Rossi! I'm an MS4 going into psych and have been getting great value from these. Have you considered pasting the DOI or direct links for the articles you reference? Would love to read the source material to further my education into residency!
What are common pitfalls you see laymen fall for when researching psychiatric diagnoses and treatments, drug or otherwise? I understand that cognitive biases apply to laymen and doctors alike, so I'm less interested in specific cognitive biases, and I’m more interested in common statistical concepts that are misunderstood. Thank you for your work!
Psychiatry is a pseudoscience and people like this fool (who calls himself a doctor) are making a living off chemically lobotomizing their patients. If you are in a depressive episode, change your thoughts, reframe your perspective. Get some exercise. Eat right. Sleep well. And most importantly, don’t EVER buy into the debunked chemical imbalance theory. There’s no such thing. Should you ingest these drugs, you may become disabled for life. Stay far away from sick people like this kid.
They conducted a fascinating experiment (in the 1970s, I think) where they attached electrodes to a volunteer’s pleasure center in the brain and gave her control over triggering it.
The female subject described the sensation as instant pleasure, greater than any orgasm, to the point where thoughts no longer mattered. She pressed the button so much that her fingers started to bleed and physically fought off the researchers when they tried to stop her.
She experienced severe withdrawals afterward, even though the experiment caused no physical changes, unlike drug use. It’s pretty intense stuff.
Between Abilify, Vraylar, and Rexulti…try generic first. Weight gain: Seroquel>Abilify>Rexulti>Vraylar. Seroquel will improve sleep, irritability, but weight gain is worse for it to fall short in depression.
This was me, as a kid.. but they decided my issue was adhd, and borderline… guinea pig for the adhd drugs.. set me on a course for drug addiction in my teen years.. then while getting high, they decided i also had bipolar. “For life” is indeed the “fact” you are being given that you will just have to deal with..

Dr. Rossi,

For me it's olanzapine. Aripiprasole gave me agitation, muscle stiffnes, lack of sleep.
Wow! I wouldn't have guessed risperidone.
Quetiapine seems to be the best! It has no EPS, weight gain is not as extreme as Olanzapine, sedation is moderate at Depressive dosages etc
What aripiprazole dosage as Aug?
Does this randomized controlled trail include injections?
aripiprazole or risperidone for persistent anxious depression? (in a person with a tendency to hypersomnia)?
Cariprazine! Weight Neutral, take at night for a restful, refreshed sleep, no agitation or muscle twitching.
Below is my link for video showing what happens when you start mixing and matching.
Ziprasidon
For me I would say Rexulti or Abilify.

if you wanna f*ck your life, then take an antipsychotic for your so-called depression which is proven by a branch of pseudo-science called psychiatry.
I found largactol helped me on all levels sso i have just beengiven it again after about 50 years, will it br the same I wonder
Quetiapine is the best. Take it in moderation and when you need to.
Sex, drugs and rock n roll. Still works, but keep yourself healthy ❤
Antipschotics are extremely dangerous drugs.

What is about olanzapine?

NOTHING, quacks!!!
They make ppl fat and I won’t take them. Caplyta helped mine the most
Resperidone made my adhd symptoms and anxiety worse
Olanzapine
Sulpiryde? Amisulpiryde?
I think amisulpride is the Best for bipolar depression
