Reducing the Dosage series is a collection of videos following my journey as I wean myself off of Lamotrigine (Lamictal), which is a mood stabilizer often prescribed for bipolar disorder.
In Episode 16, I talk about how depression is the major mood affecting me during this time, however I attribute this mostly to events in personal life and society, rather than as a symptom of withdrawal. I talk about the Western medicine system and how it enslaves people in vicious cycles of mental illness, and passionately proclaim the importance of confronting our shadow sides. This so-called ‘shadow work’ helps heal not only our Selves, but everyone else we encounter (and then some!). I conclude with words about the importance of community healing, and invite the audience to think about their role as activators and providers of sacred space.
