If you have been tapered off a psych drug too fast by a doctor, is it possible (after recovering) to go back and try to let them know what happened? Understand there may be a lot of anger. But could help others avoid the same fate. Terrible thing to have ask ppl to do I know
I ask this because in a focus group yesterday some ppl had done this. Know this takes a lot of energy. But ppl need to stop being told 'I have never seen this before', 'I don't know what to do'. At some point I am sure @rcgp will spring into action
It is also a numbers game. There are about 30,000 GPs in England. Based on this paper there are 10,000 English people just on a handful of facebook sites who know how to taper antidepressants. There are more ppl learning all the time bit.ly/3qhgTXb
Not hearing a lot of successful stories - probably not surprising. Doctors exist within a fairly rigid epistemiological framework (what seniors tell them) - hard to prise out
