The pros and cons of medication in mental health treatment
About this talk:
Mental health conditions exist on a spectrum, and some people with a diagnosis are able to function well without medication. However, there should be no shame in requiring it. For those that need medication management as part of their mental health recovery, there are many misconceptions that continue to persist today.
We demystify what it is like to be treated with medication as a mental health treatment, how he works with patients to manage side effects, and what the process of finding the right medication mix is like.
With psychiatrist Dr Ken Ung and Nikki Yeo (Host, Calm Collective Asia)
