copy cat and devil lock

i can see both of you are very active member in antipsych,i am a anti psyc believer too,but whats your story?are you guys still on medication or off already,If off medication,for how long?

I discovered "anti psychiatry" (the truth) a few tears ago and was so offended by the dishonesty of biological psychiatry (total fraud) and I just decided I didn't need it. All that medication ever did to me was turn me into a medically legitimate drug addict. I was never given informed consent to treatment, see http://laingsociety.org/colloquia/polofdiagnosis/modelconsent.htm.

At one point I was taking 7 different psych drugs all at the same time and like disassociated and became suicidal, leading to my first psychiatric imprisonment . I still thought psychiatry was real medicine believing all the lies such as depression is low serotonin and SSRIs correct the condition...

I took Adderall for ADD, Clonopin and Xanax for anxiety, Remeron and Zyprexa at the end of the day to sleep , I never agreed with the "bipolar" I was accused of but I would take anything to sleep.

I kept at it for almost a decade, they blamed the benzodiazepine addiction they caused on me "you are an addict", my fault, and the withdrawal reactions I would describe as "manic anxiety" were blamed on me as well "a symptom of bipolar", more proof I needed to be chemically lobotomized for the rest of my life.

After I am "dual diagnosed" substance abuser and mentally ill after being abused by psychiatry's substances all those years. I'm left taking just anti psychotics for my "dual diagnosis" and confuse this zombie existence on them with "sober" until my "non addictive" Zyprexa runs out months later and my motivation to do things and enthusiasm for life comes back along with Zyprexa withdrawal reactions, Insomnia and panic attacks from the very center of hell (psychosis), nausea and vomiting but these reactions are just blamed on my psych labels when I goto the E.R the first time and I leave with a prescription for more Zyprexa to avoid psychiatric arrest - inpatient treatment.

That Rx runs out, I tried to taper it but failed , back to the E.R and inpatient. Never any medical explanation for the nausea and vomiting but I got Ativan 8mg a day and that made me sane enough to get away with refusing Geodon that I knew at that time was another anti psychotic that would just make me a zombie and have to do anti psychotic withdrawal again.

I used benzodiazepines to get over the hellish nightmare of Zyprexa withdrawals and was dependent on them again !

All this happened before I knew biological psychiatry was the biggest scam in the history of the human race in terms of dollars made with lies. This combined with my resentments over all the abuse like strip searches and coerced drugging I endured in the name of help by inpatient psychiatry I decided to get better without psychiatry. It was the thing that made me sick in the first place.

Long story short, I did substance abuse treatment again and had to resist there major efforts to drug me with there so called "non addictive" SSRIs , anti-psychotics and "mood stabilizers" I got better and recovered.

That was a very short version, psychiatry put me through hell .

That was a very very short version of the hell I went though after falling for the fraud of biological psychiatry and ALL its lies like calling some of its drugs "non addictive" when they all cause wicked withdrawal reactions.

Have you told your doctor that since starting this medication you have been feeling this way? As copy_cat has said previously, your doctor is responsible for helping you discontinue treatment if that is your choice. Unless you are on a CTO no one can force you to take medications. It is your choice. I would encourage you to talk to your doctor however about getting off of them safely as stopping medications cold turkey can cause serious withdrawal effects.

Hi,
sorry im replying to this rather late, my internet has been on the blink.

I have been off forced medications for neary 2 years.

I wrote a bit about my story in my last post in 'misdiagnosed as bipolar' topic.

But basically what happned is:
I grew up in abusive household, it was horrible, my mother the perpetrator and my father would stand by her and do nothing about it to help me, sometimes he would laugh at her when she was hitting me/acting out/shouting etc.
When I was 20 I witnessed a bashing of a young man, and had to be a witness for the police, I had to say what I saw in court etc. Of course this was upsetting, but my abusive mother used this to try and lock me up in a mentlal health facility. As I said, at first she could not get me into the place for many months because I was not mentally ill and was not sufferening and symptoms. They wrote letters and did other stuff to get me into the locked facility. (I was totoally unaware of what she was tyring to do at the time), but I did find a letter she was tyring to write to the hospital to say I had symptoms, it said "_has a messy flat, there are cushions everywhere and it is not cleaned everyday. _also, does not cook herself a nutritious dinner every night..." etc etc, what aload of #######4 I was 20 yrs old for gods sake! I would rather be out having fun wit my friends!!! They said this looked like I had symtoms of mental illness!!!
So, my parents got me locked up in the place eventually it was horrible, my mother insisted each time I was getting discharged that I be put on a CTO and be force drugged for as long as possible. I've been on 3 CTOS now and because of that, I have no periods now, I ve been told I probably cant have any more children(im finding out soon, im going to a fertility clinic),I've put on 35kg in my last forced drugging with 'palperidone' and when I came off the stuff, my weight would not drop off as it had before on the other ctos. My mother kidnapped my daughter and now has her living with her. Shes been there 3 years. I rang the police and they said she had definatly kidnapped her and they pleaded with me for them to go and get her back. But my I am so scared of my mother I nkew shed either come over to my house and bash the $#%^ out of me, or lock me up and damage my body even more, or shed try and do all sorts of things, so im still trying to get my daughter back, I just need to find someone who I can tell the whole truth exactly what happened, I never did anything wrong, ive been abused by this woman for over 30 years and I cant get away from her because she has my daughter now, I feel more and more like $#%^ every day, feels like its making me feel sad, all that's happened.
Im away from mental health now and im putting things in place, legal and otherwise so my mother can never force me on drugs, or lock me away again, as I have never been menally ill, just upset at normal life events.
