The reason Phillipa said:
"Matt major tranqilizers with lots of side effects. You don't want or need them Love Phillipa"
is because she knows him and what he's been
taking and for what, and with that knowledge
she made that statement. One thing that
we have that most psychiatrists don't have
is personal experience with both effects and side-effects of the drugs they prescribe.
The psychiatrists that learn from their patients are better for it and more help to them in general.Thorazine and Haldol are probably most
overused in the elderly population in
nursing homes, because they are cheap.
These people need these drugs least of
all but they keep them 'quiet'.
