An Open Letter to All Who Will Read It

I agree with everything you said flush I don't persecute you!

I too, have come with a message.

Please, for the love of humanity, get yourself some treatment. If you do not believe in medication, please visit a therapist you're comfortable with. I think that there are many methods out there, if you're open to helping yourself.

By comparing yourself to martyrs and apostles, I have to wonder about your mental stability. I am not persecuting you, I'm trying to offer you some clarity. Its obvious that you're confused.

To compare psych doctors and psychiatry as a whole to Nazi Germany is just deplorable and ignorant. There are always going to be doctors that suck, and really good doctors who care, and its obvious that you would benefit from finding a good one.

My message is complete. This thread may self-destruct now.

Wow. After reading that, I realized I was late for my appointment with the aliens that just landed in the street outside my office.

Sorry, got to go.

I choose not to look down on or ridicule you for your beliefs, even if I do think they are a little extreme than necessary.

I understand your point of view, very much so.

What many people fail to understand, or refuse to understand is this; Psychiatry (meds in particular) is a very grey area. Nothing is set in stone. A med that works wonders for one person may make another person with the same diagnosis worse. This is true across the board. We're not talking about antibiotics here, these meds we deal with are changing chemicals in our brains. Quite tricky. I'm not going to say that we ALL have a choice as to whether or not we are on meds, as I'm sure many people out there are "forcibly" medication in one fashion or another. Many of us DO have a choice though, which means we also have a choice to make changes if we want. There are indeed doctors out there that do not have our best intentions in mind, and there are some who simply are not good at what they do. Then there are others (like my dr) who are just lovely.

All medications have side effects. Some are worse than others, and more often than not, the side effects will affect each person differently. If the side effects are too severe, then something should be changed; whether it be the medication itself, or the way we cope with/manage the side effects.

There is no miracle drug out there in psychiatry that will "fix" our problems with no undesirable side effects. That is not realistic. Bottom line is this: there will always be pros and cons; it is up to us to decide what we are or aren't willing to deal with, and if the pros outweigh the cons or vice-versa.

To put it quite simply..... if you aren't satisfied with how things are, change them. Period.

[qoute]Be forewarned.

They are going to kill you. They will do it without a trace and they will do it completely legally.

When you are on your deathbed from complications or side effects of a medication you were taking you will remember the day you laughed at, made fun of, persecuted, hated, and rejected the one who came to warn you. [/quote]


I wish I was warned before psychiatry ruined 10 years of my life. But thank you

Um yes, thank you for the warning. However, I do believe there is new medication for paranoia. Try it.

Yea, not persecuting. Just mocking and insulting and condescending and pompous and arrogant and passive-aggressive and conceited.

I bet there's a million contradictions about yourself and I wonder if you are mocked and insulted enough. If this is a reflection then certainly not.
