Synopsis
Bipolar disorder presents significant challenges for those diagnosed, as illustrated by Ross, who faced a lifetime of dependency on lithium prescribed by his psychiatrist. Feeling trapped in a drug-induced haze, Ross sought alternatives to conventional treatment. At an experimental clinic in Costa Rica, he gradually reduced his lithium intake and explored holistic approaches to mental health. This documentary highlights Ross' experiences while addressing the broader implications of increasing mental illness diagnoses and the rising reliance on psychotropic medications.
