After years of trying a myriad of psychiatric medications—SSRIs, SNRIs, NDRI's, Tricyclics (TCA), mood stabilisers, antipsychotics, stimulants, benzodiazepines, and everything in between—I’ve reached a breaking point. Nothing has truly worked, my anxiety has never been worse, and the side effects are piling up. My body’s jittery, my mind’s exhausted, and I’m stuck somewhere between sedation and overstimulation.

In this episode, I open up about my plea for a full medication reset. I am wanting to strip things back and start again—clean slate, clean brain. But getting support for that? A whole other battle. This episode is about what it’s like to fight for your own mental clarity when everything you’ve tried has left you feeling worse.
