Episode 16 - Let's Talk About Medication

Through Rough Waters with Zach Allen

Tuesday, July 2, 2024 - 44 minutes

In this episode, Zach & Kevin are joined by Carmen Schierbeek from Pine Rest, as we continue our conversation about the intersection of medication and mental health. We talk about why sometimes medicine is necessary, the importance of lifestyle modifications and therapy along with medication when addressing our mental health, how to talk with your doctor and your therapist about medication, and how crucial it is to realize that medicine is a tool, not a cure.
