I work with disabled persons, mental illness as primary disibility and brain injured who have secondary mood problems. I have also been on AD's since 1985. For myself I can report great sucess
with few problems. I have a full life and full range of emotions. I am very functional (normal) because of AD's. Normal people have no idea the range and depth of mental illness. Change places with me for a session I had with a client that I will never forget. He/she decided to stop meds because they were "bad". This person, even though they said "everything is ok" at the same time raised a shirtsleve to let me know the truth. The old pattern of self mutlation had started again...a straight razor was used to hack at legs and arms and infection had set in, new scars on top of old. The meds his doc had him/her on stopped this.People with their comfortable lives of normalicy
are so quick with their judgements but they are never in the room when I have to deal with open puss filled razor cuts or the new plan a person has come up with to kill themselves because the 2 other attempts failed.If you disagree with a post of mine, please by all means post your differing opinions w/o cutting my views. You do not know me.
