Will Hall at "Pharmaceuticals - Risks and Alternatives", 15th of October, 2016.

More than 220 people from 13 different countries answered Carina Håkansson's invitation to Gothenburg to hear about and discuss research findings, new knowledge, and future directions regarding the risks of psychopharmaceuticals, and alternatives to the biological model of psychiatry. The result of the weekend was the new International Institute for Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal (IIPDW). Members of the Institute faculty are Olga Runciman, Sami Timimi, Birgitta Alakare, Robert Whitaker, Will Hall, Carina Håkansson, Jaakko Seikkula, Volkmar Aderhold, John Read, Peter Gøtzsche and Magnus Hald. These videos are presented as a public service, on the occasion of this new venture in changing the paradigm of mental health care toward one that is more holistic, humanistic, and evidence-based.
Will teaches and consults internationally on medication withdrawal and psychiatric diagnosis recovery. He is the author of the Harm Reduction Guide To Coming Off Psychiatric Drugs, published in 15 languages and used by patients, clinicians, and family members all over the world.
