On the topic of:

Matt Samet’s incredible journey out of “benzo madness” — an I GOT BETTER story!

Our guest:

MATT SAMET is a freelance author and editor based in Colorado, as well as a survivor of psychiatry happily and healthily living free of psychotropic medications and the psychiatric system since 2006. An avid rock climber, Samet has detailed his struggle to break free of benzodiazepines and other 

psychiatric meds, as well as the various diagnoses he was saddled with, in a memoir entitled Death Grip, available February 11, 2013, from St. Martin’s Press. He also maintains a blog at MadinAmerica.com called The Other Side, in which he details how he resumed normal life while healing from the medications and their withdrawal syndromes.

Join MATT SAMET and guest host SOPHIE FAUGHT, coordinator of MindFreedom International’s I GOT BETTER campaign to raise awareness of recovery from hopelessness in mental health care, for an exciting dialogue about living happily and healthily free of psychotropic medications and the psychiatric system.
