Time To Embrace Your Healing Era
You were made for a life that actually feels real.
Not numb. Not silenced. Not stuck in someone else’s version of ‘normal’.
So ask yourself – did you miss the memo? Or were you just never given the truth?
You yearn to...
-
Wake up and feel everything again—joy, excitement, desire.
-
Reconnect with your body and own your sexuality like never before.
-
Rediscover the spark that antidepressants tried to steal.
-
Take pleasure in every damn moment, no guilt, no limits.
-
Feel connected intimately—not numbed, not sedated—alive.
Did I get that right?
But First...Can You Handle The Truth?
It’s time to challenge what you’ve been told and break free from the myths that keep you stuck. The old narratives around mental health—what it looks like, what healing takes, ‘needing’ antidepressants, what’s “normal”—aren’t serving you. It’s time to explore the truth, clear the confusion, and step onto a path that leads to real healing, clarity, and power.
Is it true that I can't ever heal from depression, anxiety or ADHD
Absolutely not. Healing is possible through various approaches, including nutrition, therapy, and lifestyle changes. Medication is just one of many tools available.
Is it true that meds are safe for the long term?
Long-term use of psychiatric medications isn’t as safe as many believe—research increasingly links them to metabolic issues like high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and even increased risk of dementia. These medications may mask symptoms, but they don’t address the root cause—and over time, they can create new problems.
Do you need to take medication forever?
No, you don’t. Many people successfully taper off medication with the right support and holistic strategies, reclaiming their mental wellness naturally.
Is medication the only solution for mental health issues?
In my opinion, medication should be last, if at all. A comprehensive approach that includes nutrition, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments can be highly effective without any side effects or long term consequences.
Can lifestyle changes improve mental health?
Yes! Lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and stress management can significantly enhance mental health and overall well-being. Many studies support that lifestyle interventions outperform antidepressants and antianxiety medications.
Is it safe to taper off medication?
With professional guidance, tapering off medication can be safe and effective. It’s important to have a tailored plan and support system in place. This is very different than the fast, unsupported tapers that are typical.
Ready to Start Your Healing Era?
This is Your Wake Up Call!
Maybe the meds didn’t help—maybe they even made things worse. You’re starting to wonder if they’ve played a role in your relationships, health issues, like high cholesterol, diabetes, or even heart problems. And deep down, you’re worried about what they might be doing to your brain.
Here’s the truth: your brain and body are trying to tell you something. Numbing the symptoms won’t address the root cause. Real healing begins when you support your nervous system, nourish your brain, and stop chasing diagnosis after diagnosis.
You don’t need to be fixed—you need to be heard, supported, and empowered.
Chemical Imbalance Is A Myth...Until It Isn't
The idea that depression and anxiety are caused by a simple “chemical imbalance” in the brain has been thoroughly debunked by modern research. Yet millions were put on medications based on that theory—and ironically, those medications can create real chemical imbalances that your brain and body now have to deal with.
Long Term Use of Psych Meds Is Bad For Your Brain
Long-term use of antidepressants can be harmful to your brain. Research shows that extended use can lead to structural and functional changes in the brain—including blunted emotional response, reduced neuroplasticity, and even shrinkage in areas like the hippocampus, which is vital for memory and emotional regulation.
Over time, many people report feeling emotionally flat, disconnected, and less like themselves. These medications can interfere with your brain’s natural ability to regulate mood, leaving you dependent and often facing new symptoms you didn’t have before—like brain fog, cognitive dulling, and worsened anxiety or depression.
Return of Symptoms isn't What You Think
What you’ve been told is a “return of symptoms” when you try to come off antidepressants? It’s often not that at all—it’s withdrawal. Your brain has adapted to the medication, and when it’s taken away, it struggles to rebalance itself. That doesn’t mean your depression is “back”—it means your nervous system is trying to recover.
And if you started on antidepressants for depression but later developed anxiety, panic attacks, restlessness, or agitation—you’re not alone. These are well-documented effects caused by the medication, not signs that you’re getting worse or developing a new mental illness.
You were never broken. Your brain is trying to heal—and it needs support, not more numbing.

Side Effects You Didn't Know
Antidepressants can quietly damage your heart, spike your cholesterol and blood sugar, and increase your risk of dementia—and you don’t have time for that kind of slow destruction. What’s meant to help you is likely hurting you.
Can antidepressants lead to HEALTH ISSUES?
Did you know long-term antidepressant use has been linked to serious health risks?
Emerging research shows that these medications may increase the risk of dementia, heart disease, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, weight changes and adrenal imbalances. Their long-term impact on the body and brain is often overlooked.
How can antidepressants affect SEXUAL HEALTH?
Many people experience a decrease in libido, difficulty achieving orgasm, or erectile dysfunction while on antidepressants. Even worse some people can no longer feel genital sensations. These changes can affect intimacy and overall relationship satisfaction and can also be permanent.
What is emotional NUMBNESS?
Emotional numbness refers to a state where you feel detached from your emotions, often described as feeling ‘flat’ or indifferent. This can make it difficult to experience joy or sadness and connect with others.
Why do I feel DISCONNECTED from others?
Feeling disconnected can stem from emotional numbness or other side effects of medication, making it hard to engage socially or feel close to loved ones.
What are SUICIDAL thoughts and behaviors?
Some individuals may experience increased suicidal thoughts or behaviors when starting or adjusting antidepressant medications. A common symptom of emotional numbing is not caring if you live or die.
What is BRAIN FOG?
Brain fog is a common term for cognitive difficulties such as trouble concentrating, forgetfulness, and mental fatigue, which can be side effects of antidepressants.
Your Family Called. They Miss You.
The one who isn’t exhausted, checked out, or just getting by. Change is possible, and it starts with getting the right support. You don’t have to keep doing this alone.

If it’s not simple, we’re not doing it. That’s my motto—and I wouldn’t expect anything less for you. No more overwhelm, no more complicated plans you can’t stick to. Just clear steps, real support, and a process that actually works for your life.

In Your 'Reclaim Your Life' Era
The truth is, you had it inside of you all along—but you couldn’t feel it.
Every prescription that was supposed to ‘fix’ your life has only created the life you’re living now—the one that keeps you stuck, disconnected, and out of sync with who you truly are.
Did you even know that you can change that?

This is your moment. It’s time to rise, feel alive, and take back everything you thought was lost.
Tried to med taper but the side effects were just too much?
Brain zaps, mood swings, crushing fatigue, akathisia—tapering off medication can feel brutal without the right support. It’s not just willpower; it’s chemistry. Safe, gradual tapering can ease the pain and make success possible. You don’t have to suffer through it—or go it alone.
In Your 'Root Cause' Era
Dr. Teralyn uses a functional medicine approach to help you safely taper off medications or explore a med-sparing path—by uncovering the root causes of your mental health struggles. Her method blends nutritional science, nervous system support, and functional lab testing to guide true, lasting healing.
This isn’t about masking symptoms. It’s about understanding why you feel the way you do—and giving your body what it needs to heal naturally. When you address the root, everything changes.
Finally, A Path to Safe Tapering.
Tapering off psychiatric medication can be brutal—brain zaps, mood swings, crushing fatigue, akathisia. It’s not just in your head, and it’s not about willpower. It’s chemistry, and without the right support, it can feel impossible.
Whether you want to fully taper or simply reduce your dose, there is a safer way. With a functional, root-cause approach and a clear, customized path tailored to your unique body chemistry, you can move through the process with more ease and less suffering. You don’t have to do this alone—and you were never meant to.

IT’S TIME FOR SOME REAL INTRODUCTIONS
I am Dr. Teralyn.
PhD. Fierce Gen Xer. Mom-Wife-Gigi. The One They Couldn't Silence.
I know what it feels like to yearn for something more—for connection, for peace, for a moment of genuine joy.
But here’s the thing—I almost didn’t make it here. To this moment, to this beach with my husband, at our favorite place where the sun kisses the water and life feels full again. For a long time, I was medicated, numb, disconnected, and just going through the motions. The medication held me back, keeping me from feeling truly alive…from loving and being loved.
So I sought out the best education and mentorships in Functional Medicine, Nutrition, Biology and Herbalism to HEAL the root cause and help you be MED-FREE
This is your moment. You can break free, too.

The Overlooked Side Effect of SSRIs and SNRIs: Passive Suicidal Ideation
Many people turn to SSRIs and SNRIs for relief from depression and anxiety—but what happens when the side effect is feeling nothing at all? In this post, I share my personal experience with emotional numbing and passive suicidal ideation while on sertraline (Zoloft), and how I didn’t realize it was the medication until I came off of it and felt like myself again.
