She is absolutely right that misdiagnosis and polypharmacy have plagued the field of psychiatry, but when practiced responsibly and evidence-based, it\u2019s a lifesaving discipline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I always preach lifestyle changes (exercise, diet) and practice psychotherapy before turning to medications for my patients, but medications are often needed to address<span class=\"css-8l6xbc evw5hdy0\">  <\/span>symptoms so individuals can lead functional, fulfilling lives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It is certainly appropriate to <em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">safely<\/em> taper off medications in collaboration with a clinician, but it\u2019s important to consider the differences in each individual and the overall risks versus benefits of medication.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Brandon Jacobi<br \/>Pleasantville, N.Y.<br \/><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">The writer is a psychiatrist.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">To the Editor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I was also \u201ca professional psychiatric patient\u201d (as Laura Delano called herself) for three decades, from my 20s through my 50s, having been diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, major depressive disorder \u2014 recurrent and severe with psychotic features \u2014 and borderline personality disorder. Over these 30 years, my medication cocktails consisted of S.S.R.I.s, S.N.R.I.s, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics and benzodiazepines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">When I become severely depressed, I experience psychosis and suicidal ideation. I have risked my life too many times with suicide attempts and hurt those I care about and who care about me to chance going off the medications that I believe have significantly contributed to my stability for the last 11 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I am currently prescribed an S.N.R.I., a tetracyclic antidepressant and a second-generation antipsychotic. I recognize that I need to be on psychotropic medications for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I am thriving. I\u2019m a licensed clinical social worker and an adjunct instructor at a local college. I\u2019m a published writer and blogger, primarily on the topic of mental health and recovery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This is a life that no one, least of all I, would have dreamed of during one of my more than 20 psychiatric admissions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Andrea Rosenhaft<br \/>White Plains, N.Y.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-1u37br4 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-6903656\">Congress, Stand Up<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">To the Editor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Re \u201c<a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/14\/us\/politics\/trump-republicans-congress-power.html?searchResultPosition=1\" title=\"\">Republicans in Congress Cede Power<\/a>\u201d (news analysis, front page, March 14):<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dear Congress: It\u2019s not too late to reclaim your power as a fully equal branch of government, not servants of a would-be king.
