The goal isn’t health. It’s sales.

The pandemic made morons and mostly these morons have remained morons. This ocean of morons enables the new profitable cycles of greed-and-fear-based scams.

don't be a mid wit

"bro who doesnt shower for 6 days straight because they cant push themselves to do it"

When trauma becomes a brand, the person saying “wait, it’s more complicated, and some of this is doing harm” can feel like they’re shouting into a wind tunnel.

being depressed while having a loud personality is so invalidating

Medications take more lives than war.

realizing they're never going to stop doing the thing that hurts U bcuz U keep forgiving them for it feels like getting hit in the head with 100000 hammers

It’s pathetic to be incapable of understanding that entire societies relate without some abusive dominance/submission shit. That kid raped shit needs to be shot.

Warnings for the adverse effect "induced suicide" are not enough. For drugs not prescribed for psychiatric conditions, like Finasteride, is at least possible that the attribution is not made by default to condition for prescription. But what happens with antidepressants, for ex?

@russtrome ssris

not a huge fan of how mean everybody is nowadays

Most Doctors prescribing antidepressants have no idea how to recognize adverse effects or withdrawal. Most Doctors (including psychiatrists) don't understand how physical dependence/neuroadaptation creates the need for slow hyperbolic tapers to prevent brain/neurological injuries. Most Doctors function as the vending machine for pharmaceutical profits. There's an army of harmed patients, growing daily fighting to change this systemic malpractice.

psychiatrists cause mental illness

i wonder how many psychiatrists take ssris

I read this morning that psychiatric treatment is overwhelmingly stochastic due to the subjective nature of individual opinions and the lack of blood tests or other processes that would identify the origin of the problem. When an idea is decided on, usually anchored to the first assessment, no matter how long that lasted, patients who have an alternative explanation are left fighting a really difficult battle, leading to the misattribution of trauma responses, which is ubiquitous in psychiatry. My whole case is a strong example of how probabilities are manipulated in such a way that psychiatrists remain in control of the narrative to see through their agenda. The hypervigilance still affects me, and as institutionalisation begins to set in, any distress experienced at concerning developments in care through poor decisions is pathologised, complicating the patient's desire for relief. The anticipatory anxiety and constantly monitoring staff moods and my own internal responses become tiring. What concerns me is that psychiatrists would rather scale up medication than decrease their own impact on patients reactions. The profession really is a poor manifestation of science, if it can be deemed a science at all. #MentalHealthSurvivor

is it me or does it seem lately ppl keep using the word “autistic” to replace descriptors like “peculiar”, “annoying”, or “unintelligent” . 🙂

In therapy today I got my therapist to basically admit that I wasn’t a human being which is progress I guess

I’m genuinely interested to hear people’s ideas on how the psychiatric field could have been tussling with these issues of overprescribing and treatment harms for decades, and yet many of those problems remain unresolved (or even worsened).

i didn’t realize how mentally exhausted i was until simple things started feeling overwhelming for no reason
