F*ck Dr David CXXXX, psychiatry for f*cking up my life. Thanks very much.
I was a faily functional person until i was told by a man,who has a licence to Practice medicine-psychiatry that i had something called 'ADHD'-WTF?The treatment was Methylphenidate-Ritalin.

I'm sorry Paul.
You feel like you were more harmed than helped by the medication?
If someone is functioning well then it seems like they would avoid bringing out the 'big guns' like stims.
I hope that you can get this all worked out.

Hi Paul,
I hate to say anything for fear of saying the wrong thing.
Please don't do anything to hurt yourself.
Things can get better.I really am sorry that you feel so badly.
If you are feeling suicidal go to the hospital.Take care of yourself.

Yes, there are a lot of horrible psychiatrists out there. I'm sorry for your ordeal. I know how you feel. My former one gave me prozac, and when I called to tell them it was making me feel worse, they told me it was something I was doing wrong. I have a good psychiatrist now.

Hey, Buddy -- I know how bad it can be, and it can be very, very bad. I hope you'll keep yourself safe, though.
You remember how bad things were for me, a while back, don't you? I'm not sure I'll ever really recover from that experience. And I'm still alive, and no matter how rotten my life is in some ways, I'm still fighting to be here. I very much hope you'll stay, too.
What do you think might make you stick it out? What would it take for you to feel better about your life? Are there specific symptoms that make life unbearable right now? What can we do for you here, beyond caring about you?
Please, Paul -- It's so frightening to hear this from you. You're someone I've "known" here for a very long time, and it's frightening to feel so helpless to help you. I hope that you will keep yourself safe, and I hope you'll let us know what, if anything, we can do to help.
I wish you peace, Paul -- but peace here with us. Don't leave us.

Paul,
I know you're addicted to stimulants. I've known for a long time. Your fascination with drugs has been obvious in your posts.
You know what you need to do. You need to get off Ritalin and stay off it. You need to put yourself in an environment where you do not have access to addictive drugs. Whenever the access is easy, you're bound to relapse.
Getting off stimualants is not easy, but the withdrawal symptoms do not last for ever. You will feel crap for weeks but when you come out the other end things will be better..... and you can begin your recovery.
Take care of yourself
K
