We do not normally comment on certain things unless they are, if we think, of vital importance to provide information, and this is one (no, we are not getting paid). Wether you suffer from mental illness, (on meds or not), or do not, you should see this; your family should see this; your friends should see this; your doctors should see this. It is well worth it to take the time to sign up for a screening. – Editorial Team.

Medicating Normal follows the journeys of a newly married couple, a female combat veteran, a waitress and a teenager whose doctors prescribed psychiatric drugs for stress, depression, sleeplessness, focus and trauma. While these drugs can sometimes provide effective relief, they are prescribed far too often, frequently without discussing with patients the possible alternatives and potential adverse outcomes. Our subjects struggle with serious physical and mental side effects as well as neurological damage which resulted from taking the drugs as prescribed and also from attempting to withdraw. Medicating Normal is the untold story of the serious consequences that can occur when market-driven medicine intersects with human beings in distress.
