Скачать или смотреть 10 MEDICATIONS That Could Be Making You DEPRESSED

Could the medication you take every day be quietly affecting your mood, emotions, or even your personality? As a doctor, I see many patients who trust their prescriptions to protect their heart, stomach, or lungs — but few realize that some common, non-psychiatric medications can also influence how the brain works.

In this video, I break down 10 everyday medications that research has linked to mood changes, anxiety, sleep disturbances, brain fog, and shifts in behaviour. This is not about fear — it’s about awareness. Understanding the potential psychological side effects of common drugs can help you have better conversations with your doctor and recognize changes early.

🔍 IN THIS VIDEO YOU’LL LEARN:
• How some medications can affect the brain and nervous system
• Which side effects are most commonly reported
• Why sleep disruption, nutrient deficiencies, and neurotransmitter changes matter
• When to speak to your doctor about new mood or personality changes
• Why you should never stop medication without medical advice
