Microdosing vs SSRIs: A Psychiatrist's Take 🧠

Each year, over 21 million U.S. adults experience a major depressive episode…

For many, standard treatments like SSRIs may help temporarily, but they are not meant as long-term solutions. Some don’t respond at all. Others are searching for options that go beyond just symptom management.

Microdosing psychedelics is increasingly being explored as a promising tool for deeper, long-term healing.

📣 Our Next Live Session

Join us for a live webinar with Dave Rabin, M.D., Ph.D. — psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and pioneer in integrative mental health — who has helped many patients navigate new paths to recovery. Drawing on his clinical expertise and scientific research, Dr. Rabin will share how microdosing may provide relief where traditional treatments fall short.

Together, we’ll explore how microdosing can calm the nervous system, restore emotional balance, and support a profound level of healing beyond surface symptoms.
