I want to disown my family

TBH, I wouldn't be in this situation if my dad hadn't forcibly hospitalized me at fifteen after I was depressed for 2 weeks. Now I have "schizophrenia" and he's blaming ME for not having money.

Very short post but I think I get it.

You were hospitalized at 15 and that started the "find the right" meds game and after doing all those meds and having bad results, those results are now being called " schizophrenia " ??

Just a guess cause of my story , "Insomnia is a symptom of depression" then meds meds meds and bad results all the way to being given Zyprexa. Then when Zyprexa turned me into an emotionless being and I tried to stop taking it and had withdrawal reactions that were labeled schizophrenia.


My family knows now it was psychiatry CAUSING my problems but I still resent them a bit for not seeing that it was psychiatry itself that was causing my problems and for pushing it on me.

It was a long road getting my life back after all that but it can be done.

I hope you post here again ,

My parents will never accept it. My mom lied about my behavior to get me hospitalized when I was 17, and my dad believes I have a mental illness that's biological and not anything else. I don't think he's ever looked into or given alternatives a thought or try. To me this feels like he doesn't love me, because he is so fearful that I will go crazy if I do anything else, and yet fails to prove that I have no other options than apriprozole.

But you know about anti psychiatry otherwise known as the truth, you can't explain this to your family?

Mabey I shouldn't spit that out so fast, it did take some pretty intense deprogramming to get my family to see through all the lies they learned to believe by reading things like "bipolar for dummies" and what ever other sources of information they read to "figure me out".

I actually sat them down and made them watch the CCHR videos , those videos just bash the industry into the ground.

I can't blame my mother , she was a mother that was believed her child was "sick" and needed medicine after reading all that disease mongering sell-the-pills crap. The doctor at the hospital told her this too , how was she to know I was right yelling on the phone that this abusive 'hospital' and there brain disabling drugs were not "helping" me ? I said FU this is not help, to my own mother. I get the title of this thread.

Give your family a break, they don't know (yet) the truth about psychiatry.

Aripiprazole sucked for me , Seroquel was an o.k zombie pill for me only when needed to chill or sleep.

brightstar,
that's horrible that your mom lied about your behavior to get you hospitalized. My mother did the exact same thing and made my dad believe it too, my dad never believed in psychiatry but he just goes along with what my mother says/does.
Do you have to take the apriprozole? are you being forced to take it? you could pretend to take it and seek alternative healing?
I tried to tell my parents about the truth of what psychiatry was too, and not all parents will believe it, mine pretend they do know that its all about money etc. but when asked about medication my mother just says 'we had to get you medicated, that's wht helps getting u better' even though I prob would have got better and actually recovered quicker if I hadn't been medicated and just been actually helped.

Bright star, I'm sorry that things are so difficult for you right now with your family.

I know you said that you feel as though he doesn't love you because he hasn't looked into alternatives, but this statement tells me that he does love you a great deal. As Copy_Cat stated, your father is doing what he knows to be best. He has probably be taught this by doctors and other mainstream media sources. That field right now is pushing medication as the only answer. Are you under 18? or is he your guardian? I'm not sure why you can't look into these alternatives yourself? Perhaps even just leave some information lying around the house in a place where he will see it? Start small.

this must happen a lot and then the parents get indoctrinated into being carers for the mentally ill isntead of family..

My parents were behind the big deception in making me out to be crazy for police etc and there nothing much I could do to prove that I just needed time, threatened my dad and family with suicide in respect to how they wree making me feel.

whats worse is when they claim love is behind them getting thier children drugged

I don't have much worthwihile to say, but I know how it feels to want to disown family because of the mental helath industry, they push it into peopleses homes.

when I talk to my mum or dad about it they don't believe me and just say "I don''t know" when I tell it like it is like they would agree if I was a metnal helath professional, thats the way common folk are prognrammed to believe the lie in medicine, they are hypnotised by it

My dad does care about me you guys are right. My psychiatrist tried to get him to escort me to a psych ward, my dad came and offered to go get lunch and then he said I was ok and didn't need to go.

sounds like your dad is ok to let you stay out of hospital....my family is $#%^ astral guides try to get me to hang up on convo with my mother about going to country for my dads 70th but I dont think I am going to go, even though I am medicated and passive to my family passive to the issues I have with them...I say about zilthch to them, just listen to my mum talk and say yes or no while getting a headache and astrals trying to get me to hang up...they are a bad influence on me..family in reality makes me feel like $#%^ if I could go the places I want to be able to go off medication ike they are trying to keep their son.
