Query: Hi! I’m seeking an expert source to speak to why mental health medication can be a vital tool for patients and to dispel some common myths put forth by those who believe that coming off all medication should be everyone’s goal. This is for an upcoming article on how patients can advocate for needing/wanting mental health medication in face of prescribers who tell them therapy is the only real way to combat depression, anxiety, and more.

Requirements: Specifically seeking a psychiatric expert, practicing psychiatrist, or otherwise-credentialed mental health prescriber: direct patient experience and/or strong familiarity with research in this area required.
