If I were a psychiatrist, I’d be curious as to why thousands of patients were resorting to online forums because they had been harmed by my profession 🤔

I’m still yet to see an online “anti cardiology” group or “anti neurology” - maybe because those specialties are based on actual science ?

I don’t know of any other branch of medicine, that has caused as much catastrophic harm as psychiatry…and then not to listen and learn from harmed patients…rinse and repeat.

Longest lasting? A lot of medical harm from other drugs, for me: oncology, hematology, immunology brutal side effects. went away for me at least a little faster then psych meds which may never go away at all. So many meds cause such awful damage. It's rough being human isn't it?

No doubt that harm is caused by a multitude of prescribed drugs. However, the denial of harm (and support) from prescribed psychotropics & ECT is prolific in psychiatry. Personally, the harm I have endured is difficult to accept because I was never given informed consent.

I do hear that I think everybody has a different experience and I know that one of the immunotherapies I was on was brutally damaging in a psychiatric way meaning they gave me psychiatric medicines as a result. Here it's about profit and predation in a capitalist country.
