Beyond the Headlines: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of SSRIs
Public discussion often links psychiatric medications with violence, suicide, or even mass shootings—but what does the evidence actually say? In this episode, Drs. Rakesh Jain and Craig Chepke are joined by Dr. Ragy Gurgis of Columbia University to examine the data. They explore the small but important nuances around antidepressants, black box warnings, suicidality, and violence risk in untreated psychosis, while debunking common myths perpetuated in the media. This conversation equips clinicians with the knowledge and language they need to engage patients, families, and society with clarity and confidence.

Psych Congress Family & Friends Podcast, Episode 6: Psychiatry Is the Specialty That Speaks for Those Without a Voice
Fibromyalgia is more than widespread pain—it’s a condition that blurs the lines between psychiatry, medicine, and the human experience. In this episode, Drs.

They also share practical strategies for supporting patients through psychoeducation, lifestyle interventions, and exercise.
