> You do the same thing! Why do you always get so defensive of the mental healthcare system when somebody else has a bad experience? We get it, you've had amazing doctors your whole life, and the rest of us are just doing something wrong.
>Yes. I have had good experiences. So have most of the people I know. I don't go around writing posts all the time talking about how psychiatry is perfect and never makes mistakes and treats all wonderfully. I only say that I was treated wonderfully. I deeply resent the generalizations from one negative experience into -
all poor people
all people whose parents are not powerful
all psychiatrists victimize people
all mental health practicioners are harsh and punitiveI resent it because I happen to know a number of practicioners for whom none of this is true.
If you or CE want to present some studies or data or evidence besides personal anecdotes for these broad denunciations of the mental health field, I am happy to read them.
