Why Meds Alone Don’t Fix What the Modern World Broke.....
How We Got Here
In the early 2000s -
- Anxiety diagnoses expanded
- Pharma marketing exploded
- Doctors had less time with patients
- Pills became the fastest “solution”
Meds treat the alarm — not the fire.They silence symptoms but ignore the source.
What Anxiety Medication Actually Does
Most commonly prescribed meds (SSRIs)
- Increase serotonin availability in the brain
- Numb emotional distress enough to function
But…
- They don’t create serotonin
- They don’t repair the gut where serotonin is made
- They don’t heal trauma or a dysregulated nervous system
The Biological Truth?
Anxiety Starts in the GUT, Not the Head - Let's discuss Solutions - sound good?
