This week on the Good Medicine Podcast, Dr. David Bearss sits down with his brother, Dr. Jeremiah Bearss, for an important conversation about mental health and the use of prescription medications.
Together, they discuss the challenges of understanding how effective these drugs really are, especially given the side effects that often come with them. They explore how prescribing to children may shape not only brain development but also self-identity. And they take a hard look at the risks that remain, including the potential for increased suicide risk.
This episode isn’t about rejecting medication, but about asking the right questions, understanding the trade-offs, and making informed decisions in pursuit of better mental health.
