Fear, Sleeplessness and the Medicated Mind

February 8, 2006
Host: Armand DiMele Guests: Roberta Maria Atti

Surging sleeping pill prescriptions since 2000 point to a population kept chronically anxious by threat messaging and media fear cycles. Armand and co-host Roberta Maria Atti trace how an overstimulated amygdala eventually crashes into depression, why sleep is biologically active rather than passive rest, and what simple remedies can replace Ambien.
