Ep 89 - Jordan Peterson and Benzos
Manage episode 341831855 series 2841142
In the last six years, Jordan Peterson has become one of the most polarizing public intellectuals to grace mainstream news outlets. At the peak of his ascent to sociopolitical celebrity, he fell off the face of the Earth. After a year of silence, he returned to his Youtube fanbase (with the help of his daughter) to share his story of battling benzodiazepine addiction and withdrawals. His recollection of his year-long rehabilitation and choices in detox treatments have been deemed controversial by drug experts and healthcare practitioners. All in all, we figured his story would be a great introduction to benzos, and what someone should be aware of when seeking a benzo prescription.
