Books re: psychotropics

For those who started on Psychiatric drugs, but wish to wean and taper, books such "Brain Book" by Dr David Permlutter, Neuroscientist and "Coming off psychiatric Drugs, by Peter Lehmann, Judi Chamberlin, Pirkko Lahti, and Loren R. Mosher are helpful.

Professor Ashton's Manual concerning Benzodiazepines, on how to switch to Diazepam, and taper and wean is a must read. The Manual emphasizes safety. http://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/bzsched.htm

There are many books, written by psychiatrists and Neuroscientists, concerning psychotropics, avoidance, alternatives, withdrawal, tapering and weaning safely.

Caution: weaning and tapering should be under the supervision of your psychiatrist.

Coming Off Psychiatric Drugs: Successful Withdrawal from Neuroleptics, Antidepressants, Lithium, Carbamazepine and Tranquillizers
