The illness(s) do much more harm than good in the long-term...its easy to put down psychiatry, but not so easy to offer alternatives as you end up looking like a fool like Tom Cruise saying "Vitamins and Exercise"

Psychiatry is in its infancy Nezirov and there is so much more to be learned for the future. We have come along way from what the treatment was 200 hundreds ago and many thousands upon hundreds of thousands of people are helped.

Yes some people can be made worse by medication that is supposed to make them better. But in the past people were left for dead quite literally.

I can understand that you have bitterness for being let down by a medication and psychiatry...but that does not mean that "everyone" has been let down and are under-going more harm than good in the long-term...when in reality many people who are in and out of hospital are finally put on the "right" medications they can regain their lives, build familys and hold down full-time jobs.

At present medications only treat the symtoms..they are not an over-night quick fix - There is no alternative than what psychiatry has to offer today and if you think you you can treat any severe mental illness otherwise please lets us know...

Kind regards

Nick

Ps Sexual dysfunction is a common problem in people who have never taken SSRI medication aswell as never even had a psychiatric problem.
