Natalie’s Story

Twelve years ago today, Natalie died a Zoloft-induced death. Like many, if not most, akathisia deaths, the symptoms were missed, misdiagnosed & mistreated. Take our free, accredited course to learn about akathisia symptoms, causes, risks, and management at MISSD.LearnUpon.com. When Natalie was suffering from akathisia, her prescriber increased Zoloft, the drug causing akathisia. This mistake is unfortunately not rare and can be deadly.

Natalie’s story–and many others–are shared on our podcast at https://www.studiocchicago.com/akathisia-stories.

Natalie, who graduated from high school with honors, was a college freshman at the time of her akathisia-induced death.
