Discussion with Will Hall, author of the new

*Harm Reduction Guide to Coming Off Psychiatric Drugs*

This new illustrated manual supports people who are labeled with bipolar, depression, anxiety and other psychiatric conditions looking for alternatives to commonly prescribed treatments. Written in collaboration with a 14-member advisory panel of MD psychiatrists, nurses, psychologists and acupunctursts, the guide takes a pro-choice stance towards medications, as well as exploring the economic, political, creative, and spiritual aspects of reliance on pharmaceutical care. Event co-sponsored by Freedom Center and The Icarus Project.
