I am glad that you have found out that psychiatry most times is just smoke and mirrors. They group you into certain categorys just by the symptoms you have. In actual fact there really aren't many psychiatric disorders at all. If any for that matter. You should check out Dr. Peter Breggin at www.breggin.com or read his book called, Your Drug May Be Your Problem. Many psychiatric medications are harming you more than they are helping you. My daughter who is 5 years of age has suffered permanent brain damage from an anti-psychotic medication called Respirdal. This type of drug is a neuroleptic and does cause permanent damage to your brain. I am not suprised that you feel better. Most people don't realize that these drugs intesify the symptoms that you were taking these drugs for in the first place. Without psychiatric medications these psychiatrists would have no patients. The reason for this is because if it weren't for these drugs causing alot of these mental illness' they would not have anybody to treat. I wish we would have found this out before all the damage to her brain was done. She has Tardive Dyskinesia and it is not reversable. It is a real tragedy. More people have to start questioning their doctors about these drugs. Information is something that every patient deserves and has the right to know. Your doctor is supposed to discuss all the possible side effects of these drugs and it should be noted in your medical records that this kind of information has been discussed with you. If not your doctor may be held responsible if you were not told of these serious side effects and you end up having one. Please relay this information to anyone you know who is/has or is about to begin taking one of these medications. Tammy
