Medications are over-used, that is true, and psychiatry can destroy lives, that is also true, BUT...when psychiatrists limit themselves to treating severe problems that require medications, and then use medications judiciously, good things happen. I have found that my life has been improved dramatically by the use of antipsychotics, and I imagine the same is true of many people with severe mental illness.
Please realize that psychotropics, dangerous as they can sometimes be, have the potential to help a lot of people lead more productive, fulfilling, stable lives.
