Joe Rogan torches Bill Gates: "He’s fat. He’s got a big pot belly. Not only that, he’s got no medical degree. I don’t even think he has a college degree. And he looks like shit. Like, why are you taking health advice from a guy that looks like sh*t?"

Mass school shootings never happened until SSRIs entered the market. From the start, clinical trials showed these drugs caused psychotic violence and suicides—but industry buried it. This article shows how far the FDA went to hide it.

Great to see our paper on how best to taper benzodiazepines and z-drugs finally in print (link below) in Psychological Medicine. It outlines the pharmacology of benzos and illustrates the hyperbolic nature of effects at all different scales. Some guidelines already recommend hyperbolic tapering and others still recommend linear. It would be worthwhile for all guideline committees to take into account the pharmacology of these agents when recommending tapering patterns. More research would also be very valuable but not a reason to stall (Stahl?) action on harm-minimisation tapering given how many suffer from severe and long lasting withdrawal effects from these drugs.

100,000 fake degrees. 1 million people. The H-1B program isn't importing the "best and brightest", it's importing fraud at industrial scale.

Americans are being replaced by fake experts with bought degrees,shut down the H-1B program until every qualified American has a job.

Not a psychiatrist. Not a researcher. A marketer.

@markhoro Tyler Black works as a child and adolescent psychiatrist.

If your patients are mostly kids, they’re far less likely to recognize or articulate withdrawal symptoms — and far more likely to trust whatever explanation they’re given. “I rarely see it” doesn’t mean it isn’t happening

[Mark Horowitz @markhoro.bsky.social @markhoro]

Some of the words that Tyler is using are accurate - like the prepositions and most of the punctuation. Studies of long-term users (double blind) show that most patients experience pronounced withdrawal effects (Rosenbaum, 1998) and other studies find that most cannot get off their drugs safely in a few weeks (Kendrick, 2024).

Tyler manages children which inherently biases his sample to shorter term users (which thankfully makes it easier for them to stop, luckily).

It is risky to take people off quickly and see how it goes because re-instatement is not the fail safe people often regard it as. Some of the negative effects of withdrawal are not as easily reversible as many have been taught to regard it as.
