And I do think it has to do with race. And I think you can see that from comments on Twitter.
You do know that one-fifth of Americans are on psych meds, right? Are you aware of the statistics? Yes. Are those all people with addictions? Is that your view of people on psych meds just in general?
Yeah, no, benzo dependence, benzo dependence. Maybe you don't know anything about this. If you're on a psych med long term, you form a dependence on it. And it's very difficult to get off of. They're starting to teach this in medical school. It's a disaster because so many Americans are on psych meds.
So yeah, he suffered from psych med withdrawal because they make you form a dependence on it, especially long term. Now calling it an addiction as if he was on heroin or something is manipulative. So when we talked about it and we were very honest about what was going on, part of it was to spread awareness that one fifth of Americans are on medications that cause dependence and don't know it.
It's horrible. People die because of it. So I think laughing about it is like, it's just, it's not cool.
I don't even know where to start with that. You know, benzo addicts will go to the street for heroin. There's just, we were trying to spread awareness about psych med withdrawal. And we were very honest about what everybody was going through. I went through psych med withdrawal myself. It was one of the worst experiences of my life. It kills people, causes akathisia, which makes people suicidal.
It's a terrible side effect. So that's what we were talking about. Now, if you want to twist that a little bit and be like, he's losing his audience because he's an addict. you know, I don't really know what to say.
