Empowering Emily: Holistic Healing from ...

ALICE W. LEE, MD, ABIHM, ABOIM
About this episode

Can someone heal from over 20 years of mental illness and successfully come off five psychiatric medications? Emily did! One year ago, Emily began working with Alice W. Lee, MD to help her in the middle of a poorly managed antipsychotic withdrawal. For much of Emily's life, she experienced problems with debilitating depression, anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, ADD, endometriosis/pain, and nicotine addiction. More than anything, she desperately wanted to be well and to get off her psychiatric medications. Today, she shares her wonderful healing journey. In addition to coming off her medications, she was able to greatly reduce her use of NSAIDS and completely stop her dependency on nicotine and coffee. This is a positive, uplifting discussion of how Emily healed along the way and where she is now. At the end of this episode, each shares the most important insights gained from her year-long recovery.
