> I've read some of his books, and the most useful point he makes, that is in line with my personal theories, is to watch out the meds you are taking have such an effect that your real personality is affected in a bad way, due to the meds, to the point that you are unaware of what is happening.

Fred,That was exactly my experiences. They call that being spellbound by meds.
A relative tried to warn me when she was alive. Sadly, I blew her off only to find she was right. I thought she was clueless about mental health issues.
It took a hearing loss caused by Remeron to see the light.
Personally, I used to think Breggin was a real quack. But now, I think he is right on target.
I still think his views on autism are wacky but heck, one isn't going to agree with someone 100%.
