⚠️ Trigger Warning: This video contains sensitive topics, including discussions of severe symptoms and feeling like there were no options left but one. Viewer discretion is advised, as some content may be disturbing or upsetting.

In this powerful interview, I sit down with Michele to discuss her remarkable recovery journey after experiencing multiple medication injuries, including akathisia, and the challenges of developing Long COVID, a well-known trigger for setbacks during withdrawal.

When I first met Michele over a year ago, her symptoms were so severe that she couldn’t see a way forward. Her health and hope were at their lowest, and recovery seemed impossible. We lost touch for a while—until one day, I checked in and was stunned by her transformation. She was doing significantly better, and that conversation sparked the idea for this interview.

This is the first recovery story I’ve shared on my channel from someone who is fully off all psychiatric and other medications, making it an especially important and inspiring episode. Michele opens up about what finally shifted her healing process, the strategies and mindset changes she believes propelled her forward, and how she navigated setbacks caused by COVID.

We discuss:

✔️ Living through akathisia and severe withdrawal

✔️ The impact of Long COVID on the nervous system

✔️ Second Fear

✔️ Withdrawal and other Forums

✔️ Practical strategies that supported her recovery

✔️ The mental shift and "work" that changed everything

If you are currently in withdrawal, facing akathisia, or dealing with post-COVID complications, Michele’s story offers both hope and practical insights for the journey ahead.
