Help ACE Bring Antidepressant Withdrawal Awareness to a National Audience!

ACE has been fundraising to produce a high-quality, nonpartisan, and professionally produced public service announcement (PSA) to raise awareness about the seriousness of severe antidepressant withdrawal—the kind that has upended the lives of so many in our community.

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we've raised $30,000 of our $70,000 goal!

Of the $70,000, $50,000 will fund production by a Los Angeles–based production company specializing in professional PSAs. The remaining $20,000 will go toward distribution, a critical component of ensuring this message reaches a broad audience, including the general public, patients, and prescribers.

Now, we're asking our community for help.

We recognize that many in our community are unable to work due to the debilitating effects of antidepressant withdrawal. If you're unable to contribute financially, we humbly ask that you share this post and help amplify our message. Sharing is a meaningful way to support this effort, and we're grateful for every person who helps spread the word.

If you're in a position to donate, please know that every contribution, regardless of size, is deeply appreciated. Your generosity will help bring much-needed attention to a topic that has too often been overlooked, misunderstood, or dismissed.

Together, we can raise awareness, reach those who need this information, and help change the way antidepressants are deprescribed.

The donation link is in the comments, where you can also learn more about the PSA and our plans for the campaign.

Do you have lived experience with psychiatric medication use across multiple generations of your family? Are you a clinician, researcher, or other professional with relevant expertise?

Wall Street Journal reporters Shalini Ramachandran and Betsy McKay, authors of the award-winning Overmedicated America series last year, are working on a book which will examine the making of America's pill-first culture for anxiety and depression. They would like to talk with people who have experiences to share about antidepressants, including those who have had more than one generation on them. They are also seeking to talk to clinicians, researchers, current or former government/regulatory officials, and current or former pharmaceutical company executives or employees.

If interested in sharing your experience or expertise, the Google form link is located in the comments!
