...As well as the virtues of psychotropic drugs and the choices to which we are entitled to accept the potential risks along with the potential benefits they have to offer. Yes. Good thread.

As someone is so insightful to keep stating, psychotropic drugs are the targets of activists whom lobby to abolish them more often than are any other class of drug. Is mental illness less serious than other illnesses; either in the degree of pain suffered or the rate of fatalities observed? It sure seems that many of these people never mention this seriousness nor take it into consideration when formulating their opinions. I get an uncomfortable feeling that there is more venom than facts coming from them. That, of course, is only an opinion, although it is a fact that I do react that way, just as it is a fact that you react the way you do to Abilify. No one is taking that away from you. However, your reaction was not of the same degree of severity as what is claimed, so why are you touting coma and death as untoward effects of this drug if you have no personal experience nor statistics to apprise us of?
