Celebrity Stylist, Artist Maeve Reilly on Overcoming Trauma & Addiction

Negativity is all around us. Nasty comments fill social media pages. Bullies torment their peers. And too many of us mentally beat ourselves up. Celebrity stylist ‪@stylememaeve‬ -whose clients include Hailey Bieber, Megan Fox, and Ciara-knows the impacts of these hurtful practices only too well.
Years of being bullied in school made Reilly feel unsafe. “It was so awful,” she says in an episode of Scan My Brain with Daniel G. Amen, MD. To avoid her tormentors, she adds, “I used to eat my lunch in the bathroom stall.”
The relentless bullying fueled low self-esteem and led to drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana, and using cocaine as coping mechanisms to numb the pain. The substance use quickly became an addiction and by the time she was 16 years old, Reilly was using 8-12 grams of cocaine a day. It ravaged her health and when she entered treatment at age 17, she weighed only 90 pounds and was “near death” as she puts it.
Reilly emerged from treatment 4 months later and has been sober ever since. But that doesn’t mean her painful past doesn’t still live inside her mind. Now, at age 34, she wanted to know if her past experiences had negatively impacted her brain health, so she visited Amen Clinics for a brain SPECT scan.

When will doctors start taking the devastating effects of ssris seriously, things like Akathisia. I don’t feel like any of the medical community cares to make it a bigger issue and it needs to be, people are suffering.

[@violetiv8444]

Because Big Pharma makes crazy amounts of money off of them. They don't want doctors talking about it. And most doctors are educated & payed off by Big Pharma. It's not about our health, it's all about their profit :)
