Award-winning documentary "Medicating Normal" (as seen on PBS) tells the untold story of the long-term consequences of taking prescribed psychiatric medications (anti-anxiety meds, sleeping pills, antidepressants, ADHD meds, etc). One-in-five Americans take these commonly-prescribed medications daily, and often for a lifetime. The claims extolling their benefits are often the only ones presented in mainstream media. The other side of the story is rarely reported, and it is a story of harm done.
