ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For many families, the idea of medication can feel overwhelming, confusing, and even frightening. In this candid and compassionate conversation, Maayan Glaser-Koren sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Sir Norman Melancon to explore the realities of treating OCD and ADHD.
Together, they unpack common myths about psychiatric medications, discuss when medication may be helpful, and explain how treatment decisions are made. Dr. Melancon shares his expertise on balancing risks and benefits, addressing parental concerns, and helping children, teens, and adults access the support they need to thrive.
Whether you're a parent navigating a new diagnosis, an adult considering treatment, or a professional supporting individuals with OCD and ADHD, this episode offers practical insights, evidence-based information, and reassurance that seeking help is a sign of strength—not weakness.
Join us as we work to remove stigma, replace fear with understanding, and empower families to make informed decisions about mental health care.
