Challenging the culture of diagnosis & disorder!

All of our contributors are allies who are concerned about the medicalisation of emotional distress. We do not offer a platform to pathologising ideas and language.

- because labels don't tell truthful stories.

Dr Horowitz will outline how to safely stop psychiatric drugs by reducing the risk of withdrawal and relapse. He will outline what hyperbolic tapering is and how to implement it in practice. Dr Mark Horowitz is a training psychiatrist, having done part of his training in Australia and now working in London as a Clinical Research Fellow in the NHS and an Honorary Clinical Research Fellow at UCL. He runs a deprescribing clinic in North East London, and has done extensive research into how to safely come off anti-depressants to avoid withdrawal effects. As well as writing or contributing to changes in best practice guidance from NICE and the Royal College of Psychiatrists on stopping antidepressants, he is also preparing a learning module for prescribers in England on behalf of Health Education England to help doctors safely prescribe how to stop antidepressants.
