Lou,
I'm sorry you feel that by expressing my views in this open forum I am "killing people". And one day I will wake up in torment? Hmmmmm.
Nobody is trying to "defame" you or push you off the board. But we definitley can do without the fire and brimstone. The people on this board strike me as intelligent and as having a good level of rationality. I've found we all seem to be very open minded and interested in what others have found in their experiences with these different drugs. But it doesn't seem that you are.
You refer to me as "people like you" who will "prevent (you) from telling (me) about a way that will lead (me)out of (my) misery". You have no idea what kind of person I am. First of all, I'm not miserable. And second of all, will you please finally tell us what the heck you're talking about? What exactly is the alternative you preach about? I'm listening. We're all listening.

As for me (and probably some others on this board) while finding the "right" medication(s) was very painful and often discouraging, I have found a combination of meds that seems to work for me. I also have been in therapy, hoping that "getting to the root of things" would eliminate the need for meds. But since being on meds, I've had the stability to finally face issues in my life and actually work through them.

> Sarah, your advice to all to "stick it out" will cause millions of people to die from neuroleptic malignant syndrome, suicide, and have their lives ruined from tardive diskoniesia and a plathora of other maladys that are life-ruining. If you send 10,000 swimmers across the crockidile infested waters of the Nile river, some of them will make it. Some skydivers will survive a fall when their parachute fails to open. The drugs that you take do not descriminate. Soon you will wake up in torment and find that your drugs are yor problem. This forum is about psychotropic drugs and the evils of the drugs are just as important to talk about as the psudolove that you get from them, for it will just be a tempoary experiance for you and then it will be time for you to pay the piper. You and others will want to get me off of this board for telling you the truth about the misery that you are headed for from the use of psychotropic drugs. Psychotropic drugs have been used for 5000 years and have never shown to lead anyone to anyplace except death, either physically or a living death that eats the victim's minds . The world is trying to hide the truth from the users of psychotropic drugs, and soon people like Christian, who established this post and had the courage to rebuke the evil of the drugs will be seen by the world. You can get me off this board, but you will not silence me. You can love your drugs, but some people love death. I have been on many boards in the last 5 years and have seen nothing but misery in the people that take these horrible, life-ruining drugs. The boards have thrown me off, for I have told them how they could live a majetic life without drugs. Free from the slavery of these mind-ruining concoctions of death. Perhaps this board will let me talk to the people on this board, not the "social" board,for it is the people on this board that need to hear what I have to say, not the "social" people. If what I could tell you would give you an abundant life, without drugs, would you want to hear , or would you want to silence me? There is a way that will lead you out of your misery, but I expect people like you to prevent me from telling you, even though you could have a whole new life, without drugs and be free fom the jaws of death.
