Special issue on Withdrawal from Prescribed Psychotropic Drugs

The Winter 2020 issue of the Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy (JCPCP, 20,4), edited by Peter Lehmann, is a special issue on Withdrawal from Prescribed Psychotropic Drugs. It features articles on

• Medically unexplained symptoms and Functional neurological disorders
• Minimum dosage and monitoring of neuroleptics
• Recovering compensation for psychiatric withdrawal harm through litigation 

Internationally known authors from the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and Brazil identify the sometimes lethal adverse effects of psychiatric drugs and the difficulties of safe withdrawal. Experts from the United States, Greece and Germany explain the safest ways to withdraw always highlighting the preferences of those withdrawing.

This special issue is essential reading for those taking prescribed psychotropic drugs, those who want to help in the withdrawal process, prescribers and professional allies. A book based on the special issue will be available from Egalitarian Publishing later this year.
