@@toefoneman Did your metabolism eventually returne to normal ? As in right now, do you "feel" that your metabolism have been permanently alter in a way that is harder for you to lose weight and easier to gain weight ? Is your glucose in the normal range, prediabetes or diabetic range ? Metabolism structure in general, anything abnormal ?
Did you idiots take a look at ill people in the streets talking with Demons and stuff acting violent to others and themselves ? Did all of you live in a Disneyland movie.This people its gonna use drugs or alcohol to Treath their problems and became much worst
My son is 18 and on risperidone for years and is 250 pounds! I worry so so much. He has autism and DMDD... He came to me in my fifties as a foster infant and we adopted him. He is my heart and he's so hurt by his weight gain🙏
Get him off that stuff TODAY. Im autistic i went through the same things. You have lobotomized him. Im still in agony from my brain injury. Id also if youll listen recommend fish oil. @0g omega 3 a day from now on. He can heal from the injury. But make no mistake Antipsychotics cause lobotomy. They were invented by nazis as chemical restraints as the transorbital and electroshock were being phased out in France as seen to linked to the nazi eugenics program. Not at all helpful dealing with autism and a frontal lobotomy. get him help today before its too late
Omg it's so heartwarming to hear how he's rebuilding a life that he wants (a life worth living!) and seeking experiences he missed out on in young adulthood :) I'm still dependent on mirtazapine for the time being, was hoping I could find a way to taper without horrific withdrawals for too long.
Congrats... finally , interesting topic on antipsychotics. Thank you. Russel B' s trauma is similar to my sons, perhaps accentuated with him speaking to court welfare officers from the age of 2 years upto 14. He was forcibly taken for weekends, long weekend stays and half holidays from 2 years onwards against his will.
Russel is such an inspiration! His journey is very similar to my own (currently deprescribing from a massive psychiatric drug cocktail). Most of my life was sidelined from childhood into my late 20s thanks to these drugs. I still have a ways to go, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel regardless of the struggle
Boy, you've been through it. Been there but much more mild with regard to the mds. The betrayal and chronic abuse it tough. ALL the best to you. God bless.
Russell is an impressive guy, his progress is extraordinary. I'de be curious to know if he is doing talk therapy and if he gets good sleep. What a great guy. ❤
Thanks for your really kind, supportive words! To answer that sleep question: At this point, whether or not I get good sleep often comes down to stress levels and lifestyle choices. It’s hard to get good sleep if I’m super stressed, or if I have too much caffeine or were to eat a sugared-up piece of cake or something right before bed (which I don’t normally do, Lol). But that's kinda normal, right? I’m not in the situation I used to be where I needed Seroquel and/or Ambien and (insert pharmaceutical here) to help me fall asleep and stay asleep each night. I only needed all that because that’s what my body was used to. As for talk therapy: I’m not currently doing it. Might do some in the future. Just need to have a good reason for it. Really want it to be my choice as an adult after having been in therapy for so long when I was young, and couldn’t _truly_ make up my own mind about going. By the time I could make up my own mind and really understood what it meant to be a participant in therapy, it was more a habit than a conscious choice. And I was just there anyway to help me deal with all the problems others were causing me and didn’t yet have a good idea of what my own issues were, if that makes sense. -Russell B
Thank you Russell so much. Sending love to continue healing your lineage. You are amazing and inspiring. I think it’s in someways, depending on the perspective unfortunate that you described the benefit you were receiving from the psychiatrist offering psychotherapy in addition to the medication management, but I really see it as something. I wanna praise. not all Psychiatrists utilize psychotherapy with med management and I am so thankful that you had the opportunity to benefit from it, obviously it sounds like it would’ve been more ideal. Maybe to try psychotherapy first and then layer on medication as needed, however, I just want to say how happy I am to hear that you landed in a place where a psychiatrist offered beneficial psychotherapy.
I’m a peds NP who frequently treats kids for encoresis… those are lengthy visits… my heart breaks for your 11 year old self that no one specifically addressed this for you 😢
I swear lexapro ruined my brain. I blew up like a balloon in 2015 while I was on it for 3 months and I’ve had issues with weight, nightmares, and sexual dysfunction. It’s awful. I think it changed a neuro pathway involving food.
Gosh, doing this to an 11 year old? I always wondered why a doctor would let a patient add on weight until 400lbs…were they observing him frequently? Was the psychiatrist noting his labs for metabolic issues? He had concerns and voiced them, but the psychiatrist response was inappropriate. It’s hard hearing all this malpractice.
these drugs kill the metabolism. and i need to take stuff like this soon because i am on the verge of schizophrenia. its so cruel. everything gets taken away from me
Cutting out gluten can really help ! There are studies on that ! Also cold water therapy and buteyko breathing can help (no studies) Switching to a ketogenic diet can also really help. Always talk to your doctor first, when implementing some of my advice !!
It’s just so obvious that you have this child, who has parents at war, would have physical symptoms. It also makes common sense that this child would also develop OCD as a desperate attempt at controlling something, anything, in his chaotic environment.
Ugh. I feel this. Between seraquil and risperadpne I gained over 100 pounds. And it has been hell trying to get it off me. Body horror is a great way to describe it.
I’m on Risperidone for self harm urges and suicidal thoughts and I weigh 222 pounds. I wanna get on Olanzapine but my parents don’t want me to because of the side effects including suicidal thoughts. I don’t know what to do. I’m 17.
zyprexa`` and all the other psych candy put 200lbs of blubber on me. drs said i was of of b.s. yet i was on a 2500 calorie diet while in teh hospital...
I was 20 years of age, put on leponex and other anti-psychotics, and I gained like 25kg in 1-2 month. I had an insatiable appetite, and I almost instantly knew, that because of that I will get fat now ! It was like a bottomless pit.
The question is: Will your biological mechanism in the cellular level return to normal after quitting antipsychotics? Clearly the energy expenditure has changed and losing weight is difficult. Even if it is successful, it is independent to glucose structure. Such horrific drug with severe horrible side effects can be publish into the society / system and not banned. No wonder people lose trust in the medical system.
The brain uses a lot of energy when creating thoughts and emotions so when it’s ruined by psych drugs it will no longer burn as much calories as before similar to how an amputee needs less calories because he no longer has legs or arms to feed. Once the brain heals metabolism will go back to normal
Thank you 🙏 "you are inthere somewhere". "That brings others into your life". I needed to hear that. Thank you ❤️. The lonelyness and trauma in this is unbearable. Thank you both of you.
Russ is a fantastic communicator, a compete natural.
An 11 year old kid being put on heavy meds like that is criminal
Happened to me too at 9. Ruined my life. But I luckily didn't get diabetes but gained way too much, it was hard to think and get around
Happens to almost everyone now in "western" countries especially USA. They lucky if it's only one drug they force you to take

Thrilled to see these two link up for such a helpful interview. Thank you Russ and Dr. JWD. This interview resonates so much.
“…Trouble managing the unmanageable…”
That sums up my whole entire life.
Thank you Russel. THANK YOU.

I’m a peds NP who frequently treats kids for encoresis… those are lengthy visits… my heart breaks for your 11 year old self that no one specifically addressed this for you 😢
I gained about 70 lbs in 70 days while on doxepin and bupropion, and maybe another one, it's hard to remember, all the meds have damaged my memory.
You poor kid! Those docs hurt you badly in many ways. I see amazing bravery.
I swear lexapro ruined my brain. I blew up like a balloon in 2015 while I was on it for 3 months and I’ve had issues with weight, nightmares, and sexual dysfunction. It’s awful. I think it changed a neuro pathway involving food.

You are my hereo Russell. I would also gladly share my story on Josef's channel.
Gosh, doing this to an 11 year old? I always wondered why a doctor would let a patient add on weight until 400lbs…were they observing him frequently? Was the psychiatrist noting his labs for metabolic issues? He had concerns and voiced them, but the psychiatrist response was inappropriate. It’s hard hearing all this malpractice.
they dont care at all. just prescribe and do nothing else. they are supposed to monitor side effects and do something about it but they dont
@@maxaffe3195 Don't doctors receive money for each prescription they write? This would play into their hubris!
Dr Josef: "Risperidal" is misspelled in the thumbnail, just FYI. Thanks for all the work you do. ❤
youtube recommend me your video and i am so thankful really great stuff man btw I was wandering do you needed video editor for your videos man?
these drugs kill the metabolism. and i need to take stuff like this soon because i am on the verge of schizophrenia. its so cruel. everything gets taken away from me
I was on thiothixene for years and didn't gain weight. Just avoid the "medication cascade"
Me too. I have bipolar disorder. 😢 I wish things were easier for all of us.
Cutting out gluten can really help !
There are studies on that !
Also cold water therapy and buteyko breathing can help (no studies)

Yes!
I got type 2 diabetes from mirtazapine, while diet played a role in that mirtazapine made me crave junk food and alcohol
I have a question why do people still on the drugs seem to be getting worse over time over years?
Ugh. I feel this. Between seraquil and risperadpne I gained over 100 pounds. And it has been hell trying to get it off me. Body horror is a great way to describe it.

Mental Health operatives are lockstep ideological - and are too hubristic to consider what they are effectively doing to people!
@paige8991 Within Mental Health there is no accountability - therefore, new rationales can be played !
My autistic buddy is constantly hungry on risperidone.
I was 20 years of age, put on leponex and other anti-psychotics, and I gained like 25kg in 1-2 month.
I had an insatiable appetite, and I almost instantly knew, that because of that I will get fat now !

I discontinued this drug once I recognised the negative symptoms....
I won 30 kg and a trauma on resperidal
Question for Dr. Joseph. Should Dementia patients take these medications even when causing damage ?
Has anyone tried chelation to help with tapering?
Lithium & Paxil will cause massive weight gain too
It is such a bad drug in Sooooo many ways
I'm eating way too much and food appropriately for family wait you can't eat that
Why he was put on antipsychotics??? Just why??? I am so angry
Thank you 🙏 "you are inthere somewhere". "That brings others into your life". I needed to hear that. Thank you ❤️. The lonelyness and trauma in this is unbearable. Thank you both of you.
Think again! If you can! You are gonna censor me in the Blink of an eye but im gonna do It again
Not just youth that put on weight because of the drugs...all adults...
❤
