I'm sick of psychiatrists. They think they understand your mind after a ten minute session through textbooks, like we're all just sheep. Put this one in this category, stick him on this med and that should warp his mind to suit society. The last psychiatrist I seen took me off Zispin and bromazepam cold turkey and put me on Zyprexa for depression, what was she thinking. After she relized I could no longer get out of bed on the stuff she switched the Zyprexa for Lexapro and then put me back on benzos. Now I'm no doctor but that was just crazy and she put me through hell for a few months. When ever I questioned her actions and told her I'd been studing my problems and medication she would tell me to stop using the internet, throw away my books on psychology and leave it to the professionals. It's a power thing with them, they love control. I eventually left her and I don't intend to ever see a pdoc again. I talk to a therapist, see my G.P. for antidepressants and use internet pharmacies or street dealers to self medacate with whatever else I feel I need. It's so much easier to study and look after your own mind and not have to leave it in the hands of someone who gets hand outs from pharmaceutical companies. I feel so well these days through exercise, meditation and my own choice of drugs I think I'm ready to start tapering off the antidepressents. Power to the people I say, who needs pdocs to tell us how to perceive the world.
