Unleashes the Truth

This film unleashes the truth that Big Pharma doesn't want you to know about Benzodiazepines an SSRI's can do to you. This film hits home on the desperation and anguish patients go through when trying to stop using these drugs. There is no informed consent by providers and should be. There needs to be accountability for prescribing these medicines.

I have personally watched a loved one go through the exact withdrawal symptoms that are portrayed by these brave people. Unfortunately the withdrawals got the best of our family member and they took their life.

This film accurately portrays what patients can expect to encounter when taking these medicines longer than 2 weeks, sometimes less.
