I don't know what to think or do about psychiatry. If I don't take my Abilify, I'll end up in some sort of institution. If I do take it, I'm labeled and forced into the role of mental patient.
I'm sorry about your situation. The meds aren't great, the doctors aren't much better (they're ofte worse), and the whole system is fundamentally screwed up to the core.
Do you believe in God? I do, and my faith in God leads to me to believe that at some point in the not-so-distant future, all our suffering will be transformed into something beautiful, something worthwhile. God will give us, even (perhaps especially) us mental patients, beauty for ashes.
Have a good day.
