Transitioning off antidepressants with microdosing with Gabrielle Bachand [Ep. 183]

Nearly 1 in 10 Americans suffer from depression and 1 in 5 young adults.

And the go-to treatment for these mental struggles is prescribing antidepressants and mood stabilizers - which is seeing a dispensing rate increase of 66% between 2016 and 2022.

These numbers have been on the rise for the last few decades with no signs of slowing.

WHY are we struggling more mentally now than ever before? What has changed?

And is taking antidepressant medication really the answer?

What if there was a better way to support our mental health and inner healing journey that DIDN’T involve taking a drug for the rest of our lives?

I can’t wait for todays’ conversation and real life story with our guest Gabrielle Bachand who is sharing her journey getting off antidepressants using microdosing along with other healing tools.

Before we get into this episode please note this is not medical advice and anyone considering tapering off antidepressants should speak to their health care providers to make a plan that works for them. 

Who is Gabrielle?

Gabrielle Bachand advocates for holistic wellness, psychedelics, and the body’s wisdom. After coming off antidepressants at 24, microdosing became a key tool, leading her to guide others at Canada’s first storefront dispensary. She explored altered states through breathwork, meditation, and psychedelics, experiencing profound shifts in perspective, career, and authenticity. Now a certified breathwork facilitator, psychedelic guide, and ceremonialist, she empowers others to connect with their inner healer through small, meaningful changes that foster personal growth and well-being.
