I'm a casualty of psychiatry.
before stepping into the world of psychiatry, i could just pray about thingd, hope for thr best and just go on about my day and live a pretty normal life.
now, 9 years later i feel like i don't even fit in with mentally ill people, much less mentally healthy people. my experience with psychiatry seems to be the part thats just swept under the rug. Medications have turned me into a person with no petsonality. i can't have friends. i can't get along with family. i can't experience many things about life that normal people experience.
and it doesnt matter how long i go without meds, i never revert back to my pre-medication state.i don't know what else to do except try more treatments to try improving my mental health.
and lately, I've been just short of getting knees and begging to have ECT done, knowing i could be just begging to have a treatment done that is only going to harm me even more. but this is what psychiatry is making me do, because i have no other choice. And i can't tell you I've heard.anything from God in years... he seems to have disapeared along with the rest of my life.
