A Guide to Coming off… Tranquilizers, Antidepressants (S.S.R.I.s, M.A.O.s) & More – Using Amino Acids and Nutrients

Are you battling an addiction to prescription drugs?

Prescription drug addiction is a hidden epidemic.  Many people abuse prescription drugs unknowingly, and before you realize, you are hooked.

This step-by-step guide provides a safe, gradual withdrawal from tranquilizers, antidepressants (SSRIs, MAOs, Tricyclics), pain pills, and other addictive medications and substances.  As more and more psychotropic drugs flood this country, millions of people are looking for alternatives.  Exciting breakthroughs in scientific research have led to a new understanding of how amino acids and nutrients affect mind, mood, memory, and behavior.  This practical guide outlines a safe method of withdrawal, information for use during the withdrawal period, and an aftercare program.

For most people withdrawing from an addictive substance, it is a very stressful and frightening experience.  The problems you experience when you stop prescription or other addictive substances are as traumatic as what caused you to begin taking the prescription in the first place.

If you or someone you love has a problem with antidepressants, tranquilizers, pain pills, or other addictive substances, this book gives you the natural alternatives for a better quality of life naturally – drug free!
