In this episode, psychiatrist Dr. Matt Bernstein (founder of ACCORD) explains why metabolic therapies—ketogenic nutrition, circadian alignment, exercise, and mind-body work—often improve energy, mood, sleep, focus, and even psychosis, while enabling safer deprescribing. We dig into why standard care so often fails to restore function; what ketogenic diets can do in severe illness; why incentives from Big Food, Big Pharma, and insurers sideline foundational lifestyle care; and what families can start doing right now—because real change is likely to be grassroots.

Everything They Told You About Benzos Is Wrong
John and Dee Foster were severely harmed by benzodiazepines—yet instead of staying silent, they spent years fighting for change. Their persistence paid off: the new ASAM benzodiazepine deprescribing guidelines now formally acknowledge physical dependence, protracted withdrawal, the need for slow, patient-led tapers that can take months to years, the importance of shared decision-making, and the role of peer and non-drug supports.
John and Dee share what they won for patients, and why these guidelines could mark a turning point in holding the medical system accountable.

I Was Prescribed Meth… by My Doctor
In this interview, Cooper Davis shares his 13-year journey on psychiatric medications: starting with Ritalin in high school, moving through nearly every stimulant, and eventually adding multiple other drugs. What began as a dramatic improvement in focus and grades slowly turned into tolerance, side effects, and a growing medication stack that hurt his health, relationships, and career.
He describes the moments that pushed him to quit, his withdrawal in a 12-step rehab, and the process of rebuilding life without medications. This is a candid look at both the benefits and costs of psychiatric drugs, and what life can look like after coming off.
