Three things about antidepressants that almost nobody knows, and each one should bother you more than the last.
First: when your doctor says Prozac, Lexapro, or Zoloft is "safe and effective," the honest version of that sentence is "safe and effective for the year it was studied." The FDA's own chief medical and scientific officer, Vinay Prasad, looked at the ten most prescribed antidepressants in America. Not one has a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial longer than a year. Seventeen percent of the population takes these drugs, many for decades, and beyond year one, nobody actually knows whether the benefits outweigh the risks. The public believes these are among the most-studied drugs in history. Long term, they barely qualify as studied at all.
Second: the FDA requires no studies on how to get people off these medications after long-term use. None. Millions of people have been on them for years, and the science of safely discontinuing them is a black hole that no drug company has ever been required to fill.
Third, and this is the one I want you to sit with: they aren't even required to make doses you can taper from. Coming off safely means small reductions, far smaller than the tablets that exist. So when people ask me why antidepressant use keeps climbing every year, "the world is more stressful" is only part of the answer. Some of it is simpler and worse: people get on, discover there's no off-ramp built, and stay stuck.
We built a system with an entrance and no exit. That's not a mental health epidemic. That's a design flaw.
"Did you learn anything about what was on Michael Proctor's cellphone during the Karen Read trial?" - Rosemary Scapicchio
"Yes, but I am hesitant to talk about it because it's subject to federal protective order." - Adam Lally
"But that was Proctor's work phone, not his personal phone, right?" - Rosemary Scapicchio
"No, it's the opposite!" - Adam Lally
"It wasn't Proctor's work phone subject to the the federal protective order?" - Rosemary Scapicchio
"That was Proctor's personal phone, not work phone. It was all personal phone. There was nothing work phone related." - Adam Lally
Wow!

Dedham district court just REFUSED to give me back my memory card of Eddie! They told me that they need to schedule a new hearing with my attorney and the not-so-special prosecutor!
They are SCHEDULING A HEARING to decide if they’re human enough to give me Eddie’s memory card!!
🔥 HOLY MIC DROP.
Judge Judy just dropped the hammer on those who constantly trash America while living here.
“If you don’t like this country, go somewhere else. Don’t come to the greatest country in the world, the most successful country in the world and say, ‘I want to change it.’”
She also pointed to the polio vaccine and AI as examples of American innovation, while emphasizing that this is a capitalist country that “revered excellence” and entrepreneurship.
“Whether you like it or not, it’s there.”
OOF. SAY IT LOUDER, JUDGE JUDY. 👏🔥🇺🇸
Such an amazing thing to be able to upload a podcast everyday and reach millions of people worldwide within hours.
That our show has grown year to year without any marketing is due entirely to the listeners. Just beyond grateful to all of you guys. Grateful that I get to be myself and that I’m not reduced to having to wake up daily to serve the Epstein class of child rapists and Israeli murderers like so many others.
God is good.
Is the pursuit of truth behind Charlie Kirk’s death personal, or is it a broader investigation into power and influence?

This woman is fighting alone. She should not be. There should be an army of supporters at her side. Please help any way that you can. You can’t expect people to stand up for all of us & do the right thing if we abandon them when they do.

🎥 GOOD FOR PATRICK CLANCY FOR DOING EMDR. —extended 60minutes interview
“I think the thing that helped the most was EMDR.”
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a trauma therapy that helps people process traumatic memories rather than continuing to relive them with the same intensity. I worked with an EMDR therapist and was excited to one day be one myself. I’ve seen miracles in those that have utilized it.
And it is NOT easy.
Patrick describes being taken right back to the memories he’s spent years trying to avoid and having to face them head-on.
That’s the part people need to understand. Healing from trauma isn’t just talking about what happened. Sometimes it means confronting the very memories you’ve been desperately trying to escape.
The goal isn’t to erase those memories. It’s to reduce the distress attached to them so they no longer have the same hold over you.
I’m glad Patrick is getting this help. He deserves whatever peace he can find.
And the fact that he’s doing the work doesn’t mean the trauma has disappeared. 💔

"Ms. Scapicchio, take a step back and lower your voice!"
Judge Krupp is getting heated during this Adam Lally and Rosemary Scapicchio hearing regarding missing discovery, and Michael Proctor, in the context of the Myles King case.
Baron Coleman (@baroncoleman) says Charlie Kirk’s bodyguard changed his behavior in the final minute before the shooting.
He walks through the footage & the gesture he wants explained:
Scap: “that’s my next question Judge if you’d let me ask it..”
Krupp: “Good let’s get to it then!”
Scap: “Gooood”
we got ourselves a spicey Monday in Norfolk County 💥⚖️ @RosemaryScapicc
There were quite a few moments during today’s oral arguments when I felt vindication, as some member of the Government FINALLY held everyone involved in the railroad job of Rick Allen accountable for the entire world to see. 🔥
Joe Rogan and Andrew Huberman look up how many Americans die from medical error each year, and the answer floors them both.
ROGAN: “Okay, so medical error is responsible for 251,000 deaths a year.”
HUBERMAN: “Whoa, that’s crazy.”
ROGAN: “Do you understand how insane that is? Imagine if that was Pop-Tarts.”
That number comes from a 2016 Johns Hopkins study published in the BMJ. It estimated medical errors kill 251,454 Americans a year, which makes them the third leading cause of death, behind only heart disease and cancer.
And it gets worse. A 2023 Johns Hopkins and Harvard study found that misdiagnosis alone kills an estimated 371,000 Americans a year and leaves another 424,000 permanently disabled.
If an airline killed that many people, nobody would ever board a plane again.
A 16-year-old bought what he thought was Xanax, went to bed, and never woke up.
It wasn't fentanyl. It was something new... and there is no test strip for it.
If you've got a teenager in the house, stop and give me six minutes.
If you wonder why the medical examiner ruled Sandra’s death a suicide with @MassStatePolice trooper thugs standing over her shoulder, just watch this video on how LEO treats medical personnel. That’s how Fanning (cop), Morrissey(DA), and Healey(AG) set a child predator/killer free.
