Link - https://www.newsweek.com/jordan-peterson-rehab-wife-cancer-scare-1460399. He's hooked on Clonazepam (Klonopin). Highly addictive at high doses. More potent than diazepam (Valium). He should had know this... He prescribes the same meds. Best of luck to him, it's a tough drug to break.

 

[RickTheToad]

I'm wary of him. I think he's dodgy. His addiction actually doesn't change much imo.

As a prescriber of the same med, he should had known better.

 

[eli77]

You post the dumbest chit imo.

Facepalm!

Do you guys not read the article before labeling someone an addict? He tried weaning himself off the meds he was taking due his wife finally doing better. There are prescription drugs that require rehab so safely come off them. People can die if they do not come off certain meds without medical supervision and or weaning properly Even if you know the protocol of coming off said meds, everyone's withdraw symptoms and experiences are different. He weaned himself off and realized "his" side effects needed supervision.

Dude, I'm an EMT. I am well aware of the withdrawl symptoms of anti-anxiety meds. Thus, he should had known better. There are better options than said meds.

I can't deal with stupid people today!

Peterson is a genius

The man has hinted on several occasions that he is weak

Or to use his terminology "agreeable"

But this should in no way reduce his work or his character

If anything it adds to his credibility

Get well soon Professor

Then take a break from looking into the mirror dude.

I don't think addiction is about logic.

Don't get me wrong, I feel for the dude. However, as a prescriber of klonopin is highly addictive.. Benzos are like that. The prescriber really needs to keep their patient in check on this. So, I guess the issue is more with his doctor than himself.

 

[Reyaj]

Isn't this guy human thus susceptible to human addictions?

I'm sure the femynists are bouncing around in glee.

He's a clinical psychologist, not a psychiatrist; the latter is a MD, and prescribes Rx.

In some States and Provinces, clinical psychologists can and do prescribe Rx med's for clients; especially for trials. Usually, there is also a MD or psychiatrist over-seeing said clinical psychologists and/or their studies/trials.
