Dr. Joanna Moncrieff, on "The Myth of the Chemical Cure: A Critique of Psychiatric Drug Treatment"
Madness Radio presents Is bipolar disorder a disease? Can medications like lithium correct chemical imbalances and stabilize mood? Do psychiatric drugs act completely differently on the brain than recreational drugs?

UK psychiatrist Dr. Joanna Moncrieff, author of The Myth Of The
Chemical Cure: A Critique of Psychiatric Drug Treatment, discusses how
seeing psychiatric medications as treatments for disease misleads the
public about how they actually work, and obscures their potential for
abuse as tools of social control.
