Rethinking Psychiatry: A Call for Radical Change

In an enlightening discussion, Robert Whitaker questions the longstanding practices within psychiatric care. Challenging the disease model that has dominated for over four decades, he encourages a pivotal shift from medication-focused treatment to a more humane, nurturing approach. He underscores society's role in supporting individuals in distress, urging us to contemplate if we prioritize pharmaceutical interests over genuine recovery. #PsychiatricReform #MentalHealthAwareness #SocietalChange
