Have you ever experienced brain fog, strange moods, or suicidal thinking while on a prescription medication?
Do you wonder if your doctor gave you all the necessary warnings about the mental effects of what has been prescribed?
Do you sometimes think you might not need to be on all those drugs?
Chances are you have not been given the opportunity for Informed Consent, because you were not told what is really known (and not known) about what the drug is doing in the body and brain, its possible side mental effects, what’s known and not known about its safety, and the actual evidence regarding how well it works (or not).
Any drug that causes changes in mind, mood, emotion or behavior is, by definition, a psychotropic agent, regardless of whether it is prescribed in a psychiatric setting. Psychiatric drugs have the potential to cause the very things they claim to treat, or worse. Even common, non-psychiatric medications can have profound mental effects.
In today’s assembly line health care with ten-minute office visits, often with only a non-physician assistant or nurse, the quick fix of dispensing a prescription almost never includes a thorough discussion of the factors you would really need to make a well-considered decision about accepting a drug. This user-friendly no-nonsense guide empowers the health care consumer with the basics in order to make informed decisions about psychiatric drugs and other meds with unsuspected mind-bending effects.
Dr. Dolan is passionate about patient empowerment and believes being an informed consumer is the only protection against becoming a victim of your medications.

Let's face it, with the amount of powerful drugs constantly being promoted and pushed in our direction, medicine as practiced today has become a dangerous road to navigate. This book will help you navigate. It is definitely a no-nonsense guide that you need if you want to achieve your goal of better health.

Moira Dolan’s inaugural book, No-Nonsense Guide to Psychiatric Drugs, the first in her ‘No-Nonsense Guide series of Kindle books, truly highlights her fierce and passionate patient advocacy. An intense and outspoken and very competent physician. Dr. Dolan outlines the history of psychiatry, featuring the lack of ‘hard’ science in its development, and the acknowledged lack of known or demonstrated mechanisms of actions. Addressing a diverse group of chemicals from different drug groups, now classified by intended action, those drugs commonly prescribed for ‘psychiatric conditions’, often new diseases proclaimed in recent DSM IV and V, have limited efficacy, and significant risks. My first impression on reading is that the patient will be too scared to take the drugs! My second impression is, that it good. Dr. Dolan emphasizes the need for patients to be ‘informed’ and to ‘consent’ to the risks; it is their decision, and it is most likely not being emphasized by practitioners. An additional concern that I have is that most psychiatric drugs are now prescribed by non-psychiatrist physicians, and also by mid-level practitioners, Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners, who collectively have substantially less training and experience in diagnosing and treating psychiatric disorders. This latter group of non-psychiatrists are probably more influenced by PHARMA as well. This influence contributes to an over-prescribing of this class of drugs.The ‘scare’ notwithstanding, I recommend any patient or family read Dr. Dolan’s psychiatric drug book to fully appreciate the risks, and recognize the signs and symptoms of toxicity if they do occur.I do believe that psychiatric drugs do have the potential to benefit certain patients, but the patients themselves have to be informed of the risks before they are exposed to the drugs.James T.

This is an extremely interesting booklet written by an obviously very intelligent M.D. who takes the time to ferret out the truth; too rare of a commodity these days! Anyone who is or knows someone who is on or considering taking any of these drugs should read this material - that pretty much covers everyone! S.T. Masters of Public Health
