My parents were denied the right to see me, as a minor - I was detained, strapped to a bed and naked for 3 days with a bed pan and a catheter because I refused to take the medication in the psych ward because I was having a weird reaction to it that made me feel itchy inside of my skin. My parents were denied access to their 15 year old with no reason for 13 days. I was catatonic and in renal failure when they finally won and got me out.

I do know someone in a long term ward that will constantly call and text his parents and siblings if given the chance. He has a set phone time so he isn't constantly pestering his family. However, he has had life long neurological and psychiatric disorders. These disorders have caused him to threaten his family with a machete and physically assult his mother. But even with all that, I believe he has the right to outside communication. I believe he should be able to talk to his parents as they are his legal guardians, and they should be allowed to speak to a lawyer if their son can't vocalize his woes with the facility in a cohesive manner. At the end of the day, each case is a separate human being and they should be treated as such. Of course there will be cases that fall through the cracks, abusive guardians that speak against what is best for those in their care, and genuine mistakes that happen by coincidence. However, that does not make a patient any less human. They are deserving of proper medical care, second opinions, staff that don't make them uncomfortable, safe housing, communication, informed consent, and the right to refuse mediations and procedures.

I was a social worker doing case management in a mental health agency. All of my clients were brain dead due to being pumped up on psych meds, and all of them were on three to ten different types of psych meds. That’s why I quit... billing the insurance was THE MOST IMPORTANT focus for the agency, not the clients becoming healthy, healed, independent, and fully functioning. “Billable hours, billable hours, billable hours” and meeting monthly quotas was all I ever heard about. It was disgusting. They claimed the goal was to improve client lives and get them moving forward in life, but case notes and psych charts/diagnoses and treatment plans on a lot of the clients went back 20 years for that agency. The goal was to get the clients hooked and drain the juice right out of their insurance.

My doctor tried to get me to take it for at least two weeks, but I was like, I cannot function in any capacity if I can neither think nor stay awake.

My wife had a relatively positive experience with abilify, my mom is also currently still on it and doing really well. My wife has medication resistant schizophrenia. I NEVER leave her in the care of medical professionals without me for a TON of reasons learned very much the hard way… it helped her a bit in the beginning but honestly nothing has ever completely treated her psychosis. She’s fine though, we handle it. I mean, she can’t work, but she lives a predominantly happy life at home. I also don’t personally ever force my wife to take medication. I remind her of her rescue meds when it seems like she needs them but if she wanted to stop all medications for some reason (she never wants to be unmedicated ever again, psychosis is terrifying) I wouldn’t stop her because that’s fucked up. But anyways. My mom takes it for medication resistant major depressive disorder, she works and is raising my much younger siblings and is doing pretty damn well

I had only been on it for a few months. It’s been 2 years since and my bladder has never been the same.

Geez 😢 that was very abusive of your mom to do to all of you 😢im so sorry you all went through that 😢

I was on abilify as a teen. Living with a psychotic, narcissist mother can make you pretty unhappy. Instead of doing anything about my living situation after my many therapy sessions, they medicated me heavily. It made me feel like a zombie especially in combo with the 3x daily xanax I was prescribed as well. As a kid I was not counseled on the potential side effects or withdrawal symptoms. I wanted to quit after a few months but the doctors said I could have a heart attack and die from stopping suddenly, as an otherwise healthy 16 y/o. I weaned myself off over a month and got my life back. I just wanted to feel human again, the good and bad is better than nothing at all. With my mind cleared, I threatened to take my mother to court and fight for emancipation. She let me move out at 16 1/2 to avoid everyone finding out the truth about her. After moving out, all my “mental health symptoms“ subsided entirely other than occasional anxiety from the PTSD of living with an unstable, abusive, single mother all my life. Luckily, this has been fairly easy to manage with more therapy, mindfulness exercises and natural treatments.

I’m sorry you went through that. I ended up with an abusive narcissistic perpetually cheating partner at 21. My first and only. I’m finally free. He kept hoovering me back in. Financially at times I had no other options. Now I’m living with my mother and free from him but 15 years with him and the constant gaslighting, manipulation, etc etc and him forcing me to get hooked on big pharma, I feel a lot of what the girl in this video feels.

I became a ward of the state of Idaho when I was 13. In and out of Juvi and psychiatric facilities for children. I was SA'd by my stepfather and brother for years starting at 4 years old, and wasn't believed, on top of my family being very mormon and very controlling. Of course I had a bad mental state but they refused to accept the root cause. I was put on Prozac and then Abilify. No set diagnosis, but Bi Polar and Borderline Personality Disorder were terms used often. In the last facility I was in, Northwest Children's Home, I finally met a therapist who believed me and when I met with the psychiatrist he said these exact words, "I'm taking you off Abilify. It's an anti psychotic and you're clearly NOT psychotic." I can't explain how validating those words were. Honestly, that time of my life is such a blur. I can't tell you how those medications affected me overall. I know Prozac made me homicidal, suicidal and violent, but that was before I was hospitalized. I'm 33 now and what I believe saved me was spirituality, getting far away from organized religion and my abusive family, and friendships that create a safe space for me to express my truth and fully accepting me and believing in my ability to heal. Visiting animal sanctuaries, just animals in general have been so healing. Cannabis has really helped me as well, and I don't really use it often anymore because I don't feel the need. It wasn't until 2022 that my brother gave me the full truth of what he did. Seeing my family still reacting the same way they did back then, showed me I was never the problem, it was my environment gaslighting me and controlling me. The truth will literally set you free. I accept now that I have CPTSD, and I don't believe I will always be affected by it. I believe we can truly heal from anything, if we believe we can, and dont just believe doctors advice at face value. The human body and spirit is more amazing than we realize. I will never take western medicine again. It will never heal the root cause because western medicine only treats symptoms. I'm heartbroken for this woman and her experience. I hope she finds her path to true healing. It truly is different for everyone.

4? Dear god.. and your brother? When my sister told me about what our uncle did to her as child decades later she had to beg me not to kill him. I finally realized that since i was her only friend and brother that she would be totally alone for real if i went to prison. So we told the family member that had half custody if his home left by grandparents and agreed to give the equity to her. Not though before we broke into his bedroom, stole his laptop, immediately found what we thought we would and had a sherriff there in a matter of hours. I will say this, she was a heroin addict 200lb over weight. After she told me and i got the entire family to valid what happened to her and moved her away from that town she immediately quit opiates, got a job, lost all the weight and became very skinny, got a boyfriend, broke up with him then got another one thats far more serious and now im an uncle and it was all within a couple years. I assumed she would die single and depressed. Never before have i seen as much joy and her bouncing a baby on her lap next to her love of her life. It was insane seeing that this one thing she was holding in had essentially imprisoned her and all it took to free her was her brother and mother telling her it wasnt her fault and he was a monster. Ever since i wonder how many women walk atound imprisoned by the actions of one sick monster like that and it breaks my heart. She only told me because she was so drunk she couldnt even walk. I have no idea why a victim would hold that in. She is unable to tell me why she couldnt tell us. I think she truly though it was her fault, that she brought it on herself as an 8 year old. I just wish there was some way that every little girl could be made to understand that its their right to tell an authority figure.. hearing you say you wernt belived..heart breaking. Let us pray their God does exist so that they may be reminded of their crimes every day by the laugher of demons. Jesus said, "Suffer not the little ones"

I went to a spych "hospital" once as an adult. After waiting to see the psychiatrist for hours, the first thing I tell him is, "Im not taking any of your drugs." He strait up told me "well, you're gonna be here longer." I wasn't manic or in psychosis, so luckily, I could think clearly. I buddied up with someone who could also think strait, so we talked and would make people in there laugh who were clearly having a worse time. Ha! I made fun of a nurse once, and she pulled me into a room and yelled at me not to disrespect her. If you end up in one of these hospitals, pray, find a friend, do what you have to do to "do your time," 'cause honey, you're in jail.

The psychiatric community is the best one to give any drugs to. I lost count of how many I've been on. Not one of them truly helped me. But big pharma has been slowly killing people for a while now and it's easier for them to do it through this route because the patients are already mentally sick. So we are just collateral damage to their money scheme. Legal drugs. Almost every person alive is either on legal or illegal drugs. We're constantly putting things into our bodies that is extremely harmful. Even our foods. But what's awful about the mental illness crisis is that those on meds tend to feel either numb or just worse, and the rates for su!c!de increase. Those who aren't on meds are also su!c!dal and even hom!c!dal. Mental illness is spiraling out of control and it's not going to be fixed because nobody with the resources or positions wants to fix it. There are thousands of people making money off of drugs, and most of them are running this country and a multitude of other countries as well. They don't care what's being pumped into us, as long as it's being pumped.

@@Erich91_ you as well! Truthfully, I’m with a psychiatrist who gives a damn about me more than he does about lining his pockets, and I am medicated, but he’s always given me his opinion on several different options and allowed me to do my own research and weigh pros and cons before trying anything. My medications are a little on the weird side, but treating complex PTSD, atypical ADHD and OCD with a dash of panic disorder is messy - therapy is helping and I have a wonderful set of parents and partner and 3 amazing children all there to remind me of how glad I am to have made it away from him alive. thank you.

Man I think we should all really appreciate how delicate being mentally stable is. A slight nudge at the right time can throw you into the abyss. We can walk around for eighty years with the right genetics for schizophrenia and never know it. All it takes is the right trigger. For a lot of people its psychedelics like this case, could be lack of sleep, stress, trauma even seemingly nothing. Our brains are so complex and we’re just now starting to understand whats going on up there. When it comes to consciousness they’re just not really sure. The scariest part is you think everything is fine. Your brain says you’re acting normally. Crazy people don’t know they’re crazy. Appreciate that you know the difference. Stay away from psychiatric hospitals. It will be the worst experience of your life. You have no rights, no free will. Lockdown was paradise compared to this. Stay safe have someone you can trust

Dearest Jess, thank you for sharing your experience. We had a bit of a journey with my anxious son, who had a bad reaction to a MDMA trip. He had similar symptoms to you. But the medication didn't help and once he disclosed to us about the MDMA, with his psychiatrist we agreed not to give him any more medications, except some sleeping aide. He cut sugar and all the caffeinated drinks thatvwas causing him heart palpitations. He wasn't experiencing any joy and of course his whole health declined. It took 3 years of his life to the the 4 of us, 3 pets, a good psychiatrist (eventually) a psychologist, a nutritionist, a good GP, an homeopath, an acupuncturist, a bunch of friends, well even some Latin friends arrange prayers for him in Colombia! but that boy is now a 22 yo man and it's been around a year and a half that he is himself again. He missed out in many experiences, but as he says "I still can make it up for the missing experiences, because I'm alive." I wish you every success in your journey, I send you lots of strength to you and your loved ones. I hope you can reclaimed your former life and health too❤

Same here, they put me on abilify after psychosis from the 10th biggest shooting in America last year. I didn't take the whole bottle, it felt like it just restabilized me but I had weird mental fog issues and my emotional capacity was weirdly stunted for a few months. I couldn't record any music or really work on my video games.

The side effects from risperadone and the like is absolutely insane. Im schizophrenic, but the compulsory depos had me suicidal. They dont care. This time i kept a diary as they kept me at hospital for six weeks to force the abilify crap on me. By the third day of resperidone i was a mess and couldnt function to write a sentence. They tortured me for 10 hours a few years back. Mental Health Australia even took me to the supreme court to have an order on me. They informed me that 'do no harm', doesnt apply to mental health australia. I am going to enjoy watching this sick and twisted industry come undone. Theyve had free reign for 100 years now.

I take Zoloft and it's a literal lifesaver. It's actually dangerous to go around telling people to avoid psychiatric meds because some people need them to function. People around me discouraged me from meds for years and I was on the brink of $uic*d*. There will always be people who will have bad side effects and there will always be bad medical care regardless. Some of us literally have a broken brain and need psychiatric meds.

I haven't watched this just yet, but I'm super curious and glad this video popped up. My son was prescribed abilify when he was in 6th grade. I noticed he was getting more aggressive and was even saying he wanted to off himself. I told his doctor and they INCREASED his dose. Told me that it's a mood stabilizer and it shouldn't make him like that. Well, he got worse so I slowly took him off of it. It wasn't long before the school was asking me what changes we did because he was improving.

Good job making the right call on your own observations.

I am literally crying from watching this with such horrible feelings of complete and total understanding and knowing exactly what this girl is going through because it is exactly, exactly what I went through when I was put on methadone for pain management. I’ve just been prescribed abilify but didn’t want to take it before researching it due to hearing bad things about it. This cemented it that there’s no chance I want to take something that could do the same thing to me again. That awake, catatonic, lifeless, emotionally dead shell of the person I was, is no way who I want to ever chance myself into ever again. I pray she finds her way back to herself.

I was as in and out of psych wards and baker acts due to addiction. Fortunately i dont have any psych issues or depression. Drugs are bad, but psych meds are the stuff not nightmares are made of.

But it also says something about coddle culture, and pills will fix everything mentalities. She seems to blame the drugs at every turn, but most of this can be explained by her not knowing herself and trying to retain her view of the world. Now, don't get me wrong, all of this is f-ed to the max, but she clearly had a pre-existing condition. She didn't like the introspection phase of mushrooms... Cool, most unstable people don't. I've blacked out from dropping too much blood pressure smoking pot before, too. That mixed with low blood sugar and a potent hit will make you feel crazy if you aren't grounded, but I didn't go to the hospital, I went to bed. These things are not life altering... Unless she ate a bad batch or the wrong kind of mushroom, that did not cause her underlying mental break. They just took advantage of her willingness to be helpless. My question to myself through most of the middle and later portions of the interview was, "Then why not just stop taking it...?" The Dr. left for two months, but she didn't stop taking the pills??? She scared herself into actual trauma, let this be a lesson to all the sheltered people who think they knew themselves or the world, it's not what you think it is...

@tibbar1000 The Dr in this interview does say at the end that she is classic, bi-polar, or schizo effective personality disorder. I have a friend who had a full-blown schizo personality disorder, like he sometimes full-on hallucinated. And he ate mushrooms all the time but never smoked weed sober. He said weed was the thing that brought his symptoms to the surface the worst... He did smoke when he was drunk, which now that I think about it was pretty often, and he always called it playing with fire... right before lighting up. I never understood until I did. He would begin to look at things that clearly weren't there and interact with them. He would tell us he knew they weren't there but couldn't help himself from interacting with whatever it was. Like a compulsion, he said. A friend and I shared a joint, and he just reached in and took a hit. Nobody thought anything of it. He went to the bathroom but didn't come out for like twenty minutes. Then, when he did come out, he had a football helmet on and a fake Kitana. He told us to leave... we did. An hour later, a crisis ambulance showed up. This was probably before abilify but they put him through a similar run of things. He ended up in his little hometown addicted to coke. So it does happen...

There is something going on in Michigan right now, where they're investigating the head Psychiatrist of multiple psychiatric facilities here. They found stacks of psychiatric hold forms that were pre-signed by him. He wasn't even meeting the patients to see if a hold was necessary, it was automatic. Some of these poor people were being kept there for months. They were voluntary, but every time they would go through the proper channels for release, something would "happen" with the paperwork, or they'd be waiting to see the doctor to sign off, for weeks. It took a patient somehow getting a hold of a local investigative reporter. Once the facility found out the media was contacted, they released her immediately. This is all over insurance money. They're holding people and bleeding their insurance. I guarantee if the patient doesn't have insurance, they release them ASAP. My point is, if it's happening here, it's probably happening all over the country.

I was put on Abilify for a couple of months before being switched to Lamictal. I felt like a zombie. I was useless at work, I got lost at the grocery store, my legs cramped if I didn’t move them, my back cramped and I had to lay on the floor at work, I didn’t care what my coworkers thought, my back and my legs were so painful and uncomfortable. My mind was blank, I was so scared because my work requires me to use my brain so much.

Dr. Bregin is wonderful. I heard him say it about the COVID shot

My mom was bipolar and she knew what to say so they couldn’t keep her in treatment so she was unmanaged for decades. She would have hard time finding doctors who would want to treat or they weren’t familiar with the meds so she never fully had proper care. I firmly believe the ability and chantix combo is what stopped her from breathing. She was on state insurance and the doctors didn’t care nor had time to listen to her side affect concerns. When she was on depakote she seemed more like herself then the doctor gave her a box of abilify samples and after about two weeks of 30 mg a day she was a shell of herself. No emotions none of her personality just nothing. She had suicidal ideation and doctors ignored it. She had been on it almost a year and she was gone. The night she died she kept saying she didn’t feel well and her brain felt like it was liquid. Her partner wouldn’t take her to the ER because he felt she was making it up. 6 hours later she was dead. The doctor would not authorize an autopsy or bloodwork to see what happened just blamed it on her weight. She was 5’5 and 220 lbs and had been for years so who knows the truth.

3 years from quitting 100mg of Zoloft and 3mg of abilify. I can relate to everything she has experienced. For the most part I’m healed. I still struggle with empathy and memory. When I think back to this experience, I start to cry. My heart breaks for her and others that experienced the same thing. Do not give up if you read this or watch this video. In time, prayer and getting back to life when your capable healing will happen. I’m very active in life now, working, laughing, exercising. I’m living. Michael Priebe the lovely grind.

Jess reminds me so much of myself. When I was 17, I had two psychotic episodes from smoking too much cannabis. The first one lasted two weeks and the second one was a week long. The psychosis faded in both instances and I managed to hold onto my ego, thank God. I was actually prescribed Abilify but never took it. What followed was a decade of depression, anxiety, panic attacks, PTSD from that experience, and everything in between. When I was 23, I figured out that my parents were narcissists and that I had been actually been emotionally abused and neglected all through my childhood. My own denial and repression of this meant that I never got help for the above conditions because I basically thought my suffering was normal and that there wasn't a problem. I was in serious emotional pain and wasn't allowing myself to feel it. Victims of abuse, especially narcissistic abuse, are conditioned to look to others to define their own reality and emotions, which is why I think they go to the medical profession for a cure, thinking they know what is wrong with them. After starting therapy recently and really beginning to figure out what happened have I begun the road back to myself. So many psychiatric conditions are actually just manifestations of trauma and if the victims of this trauma can have their reality validated by a therapist who understands this, healing can occur.

I was handed a lexpro script for an ear issue that they kept giving me antibiotics for and i was like I think its fungal i think its swimmers esr i had the classic symptoms but i was told no i have anxiety and given lexipro whoch i didnt take. Got some foot fungus cream and sorted it myself. But one of the antibuotics banned for use except as a chemo drug flouraquinalone gave me horrible symtoms of severe terror and some people have this permenently i only took 2 tablets. It messed me up for months after. Total terror all the time for no reason. So no way was ó taking lexipro. Christ. For a fungal ear infection. Im so glad i didnt take it now I dont ever go to a doctor ever. If i was in a car crash id be pretty worried to trust them.

Mental health treatment is still extremely barbaric compared to the other advancements that have been made in the medical field. This story is all too common. I hope it inspires other people to share their story and spread more awareness to the horrible side effects some people experience from these new anti-psychotic meds and the way they are administered. To Jess, I hope with all my heart that u continue making progress. Never give up on finding that joy in your life that was so tragically stolen from u. ❤

Recently in last couple years I was SA by social worker sent from therapy. All correlating from fb group stalking from therapist and social worker. Because I kept objecting to there bogus psychiatric diagnosis on me from past. Then when the social workers criminal mischief and other suspicious behavior didn't provoke a response from me to collaborate there false diagnosis she then tortured my pet cat when I kicked her out of my house. Social worker approached me as date/relationship from fb dating and I didn't learn they (therapist and social worker) were working in my medical records until later when judge brought it up. Now I'm being prevented from investigation and further retaliated against because I keep talking about it. Bowen center is getting all kinds of grants, praise, and awards for what they did to me.

There was a father who literally carried his daughter out of a facility. He loudly shouted at the staff about the mistreatment and abuse that was going on. Although I remember that man as a hero, we all had to watch this girl get carried away to safety as we were left behind locked doors being tortured. The scars those facilities left on my mind and soul will never go away. You surely learn a thing or two about evil and how sick people can be in those places, but they don't help at all. Its just torture.

As some who works at a psychiatric facility the whole industry needs reform due to how overworked and understaffed the hospital is. We cannot give the patients who NEED help are kept in the system for months and sometimes years from kids to the elderly. The elderly are often just geriatric and in the wrong place.

Last time I had it was a couple years ago. I had surgery to remove the right side of my thyroid. That surgery went pretty well. Unfortunately, during the surgery they send a specimen of to get a quick check to find out if it was cancerous. It came back clear so they did not remove the left thyroid. Later that week after a closer look at the thyroid, they found cancer in the part they took out. So two weeks later I went under to have the left side removed also. When I was in recovery they had a problem getting my blood pressure in check. I ended up with akathisia. I was up all night pacing the halls. The nurses must of thought I was nuts. They wanted to give me some anti nausea medication and/or tramadol. I was just felt like I should not take anything and ride it out. Later I found that the anti nausea medication they wanted to give me more of has a listed side eff3ct of akathisia. I would try to sit down, but I just couldn’t. I felt compelled to move. I am extremely fortunate that it let up in the morning and a couple days later I was OK. About 10 years ago I had akathisia for about 2 months which i realize now was related to a long term use of prescribed Ativan.

I went to an outpatient center because my job was stressful and they were on the brink of terminating me for any small infraction, a coworker even said he heard HR saying they were going to go over my work with a fine tooth comb so I took a family medical leave and ended up in the outpatient center. They were trying to give us all meds and a lot of people declined. I remember my nurse and the guy who led the outpatient clinic mocked us because we declined meds they said in a mocking voice “My family member/friend said I shouldn’t take meds because we don’t know what they’ll do to me.” They acted like we were ignorant but we knew better and they must have heard that so much that it really got under their skin, enough for them to repeat it back to us.

I took medical leave when there were problems at work but my doctor warned me not to go too long or else. I imagine he meant they would think I was the problem.

I was prescribed 10 mg of ability when I was in second grade due to misbehaving and certain anger issues, and I remember my mom saying I was like a zombie, I don't remember most of my childhood during that time, like I remember more things all the way back in 1st grade than I do from 2nd-9th grade when I was on that medication. I was slowly lowered the dosage over my life and was mostly on 5 mg every night. I was never diagnosed with bipolar or schizophrenia, only adhd later in life and even then I was on this high ish dose for such a long time for my age range and I cannot imagine how much that has effected me in the long term of my early development while under the effect of the drug. It was always a struggle for me to get off of the drug during my middle school years because every time I got in trouble while taking a break on the medication they would always blame the behavior on not being on the medication and not that I was a literal child still trying to learn consequences to my actions and it was only until high school that I finally convinced my parents to get me off of it after my new physiatrist was shocked I had been taking this for so long and that it was very odd given my diagnosis of adhd. My entire life felt so numb during that whole time and while it did help control my actions, it controlled EVERYTHING, my thoughts, feelings, it felt like a distant disassociation and, distant to everything and everyone and think that compounded with my behaviors with the loneliness and isolation I felt during that time. Now nearly 5 years after being off of the medication I finally feel alive, I feel emotions like I never did in my childhood and everything feels so, REAL. Its weird to say but most of my childhood feels like a different distant person that no longer exists, and barely existed to begin with. I feel free. Of course I have my biases and my specific circumstances of being medicated from such an early age, but especially with these sorts of medications and I hope its changed a lot since then but I it should be under very specific and truly necessary circumstances to prescribe such medications in early development with therapy and non medicated empathetic treatments being the first line rather than immediately going to medication with therapy afterwards such as in my case.

Thank you for bringing up this topic because the tendency to push off-label antipsychotics is honestly so scary. People now take them for anxiety, sleep problems, depression (!), managing mood swings and I have a feeling like some psychiatrists see them as a "safer" alternative to benzos but the long term ramifications of using antipsychotics are brutal.. Diabetes, depression, weight gain, movement disorders and literal shrinking of the brain...

i saw a psychiatrist once. i said i have heavy anxiety, trouble concentrating and committing to tasks and trouble sleeping. he didnt ask "do you get all your daily nutritional requirements met?" ... didnt bother to ask about the environment i lived in... he just prescribed like 6 drugs to me lol. damphetamine, clonazepam, seroquel, and a couple others i cant remember atm. one was a reallllly expensive anti depressant. at least he tested my metabolism first to see if i would be able to utilize the drugs correctly, which is why he said he prescribed the special anti depressant. because my body wouldnt metabolize others correctly and would result in dangerous outcomes very quickly. needless to say, i only took the first two as directed for two months to see if they'd have any substantial impact on my life, and they did help a little bit, but my mental health wasnt the cause of my problems, it was the situation i had been born into, just like MOST people who get labelled as "mentally ill/disordered".. pretty much all of us are just people who werent born well off and who are simply not considered human in eurocentric culture/economy so there are purposefully impossible to achieve expectations we are forced to navigate on our own. i didnt understand the absolute necessity of daily nutrition until i was like 30 years old. turns out i had been severely starving my body for my entire life before that, and due to my only income opportunities paying less than 1/10 the cost of being alive in america, i would never have the possibility of adequately fueling the cells that make up my body. the problem with eurocentric healthcare (and culture in general) is that it dehumanizes everyone who is not well off, and only roughly 2% of the entire human species has enough wealth to be considered well off. so doctors will often ignore and/or refuse to account for real world causes to health issues, because they are culturally conditioned to pretend those things dont exist or that those who face them arent human beings and should be treated like things to experiment on and torture for fun. you'll likely never meet a well off eurocentric who even has the remote capacity to care about the well being of anyone who is not well off and definitely not care about anyone who isnt clearly a european loyalist..

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a teenager then bipolar 1 with depression along with the ADHD. I was a guinea pig for years on meds. Thank goodness I never had to be hospitalized but I stopped taking any of the meds they gave me and smoked medical marijuana and it worked. It was unfortunate that I came down with CHS and can no longer have the THC. So no I use my cognitive skills from years of therapy. But now my 21 yo daughter had an episode but this also happened when she did mushrooms at 16. After that happened it took about 2 months for her to be back to her normal self until this episode and she went to an urgent care and the doctor saw her for less than 2 mins and tried putting her on Prozac and no she didn't take it. I worked with my daughter with the cognitive skills I was taught and she is doing great now. I didn't want her to go through the circle of meds and crazy thoughts that these doctors like to put in your head. She now knows the signs of it and knows cognitive awareness is her best chance at working through it and having me, someone that understands and can help her through the pig pong head and safe space dark room feelings without all the drugs. We are working on cleansing our bodies of toxins and evening our our hormones and vitamin levels to have the best chance at this not happening anymore. Please don't let your children on the crazy meds because there are better holistic ways. A holistic chiropractor has actually helped me feel better than I have in 25 years and I'm 48. Its a matter of keeping your insides even and healthy. Deworming and deparasiting and eating healthy and cleansing your body of all the toxins, the heavy metals in your body that the government allows in our food and water. Holistic doctors aren't crazy. Pharmaceutical companies have wanted you to believe this for years so they can make money and doctors play along to get that bonus check for the newest prescribed pills pushed through the FDA.

I’m sorry you had to go through that.

I was on abilify among lots of other meds as an adolescent after early encounters with the system. My doctors were all pill pushers. I have never felt like a complete person and I struggle trying to find insight into myself and other people. My life feels like a carnival ride. I have been incarcerated in psych centers and in state prison from a young age. I have a problem with authority and I don't get along well with others after a short time because its too draining to keep appearances when I'm struggling with my own demons. Despite my attempts at self-discovery there is an empty, missing part of me that eludes understanding. I have never really been treated well by people but it is probably deserved because my thinking is that you get out what you put into the world and I have mostly brought forth negativity and suffering. I have the overwhelming feeling that I do not want to experience the struggle of existence ever again. I have to walk a fine line between wanting revenge and overcoming myself, but I don't think I am disciplined enough to do either. My life feels like A Clockwork Orange. I am in my 20s but I feel 100. I am burned out and I have little desire to see or hear anything. Thanks

Abilify was sued. It was linked to addiction. Google the lawsuit.

This system needs a serious reboot. They basically diagnosed her as bipolar from one incident, that is disgusting and they should be held criminally liable if she has been harmed! Everybody shows signs of this that or the other sometimes that does not make a mental illness! It took them years to figure out I was bipolar lol. I take no psych meds now and use marijuana medically because it does work good for me. I went through that corrupt pill system and am done with it, they care more about profits than your mental health!

Yes, the system is very quick to slap a diagnosis and medicate. It doesn't take much curiosity, care, or empathy to do so. Any monkey can label and prescribe. But to sit and listen to a person's story and find out what's actually going on from all sides and come up with creative and comprehensive care is real help. Totally agree about the reboot! We need major reboot.

@@NeseretBemient you basically won the lottery if you can find ANY level of healthcare "professional" who will acknowledge the human body has daily nutritional requirements that if not met will lead to a cascade of severe problems that will effect every aspect of your life and well being. they have to ignore that because if they didnt, they'd have to testify in court against employers who pay people under the cost of living for causing measurable physical/financial damage to countless peoples lives and they'd have to testify against the government officials who think its ok to do that to most of the species too. its a crime against humanity in every conceivable way. they are just going with the flow of oppression to avoid having to take responsibility for their actions causing so much harm to untold amounts of innocent/vulnerable human beings.

You shouldn't do drugs if you have a family history of mental illness. I wish LSD could be prescribed because it let me let go of my anger around being abused as a child. I was such an angry person before taking it. That was 8 ish years ago.. It improved my mental health overnight, and It hasn't gone away.

I thought Abilify was the best drug! When I was first divorced and crying nonstop, it snapped me out of that really well. But it has side-effects of causing process addictions: sex, shopping, gambling. So I got all of those. I wasted a lot of money and my self worth. I had been on the highest dose. I have been off it for about 3 years. I am no longer feeling the emotional sting of the divorce, but the feelings of guilt and remorse over the shopping, sex, alcohol, and gambling have taken its place . I am in recovery yet again, but making progress.

So glad you are here and getting better!🎉 However, not everyone is the same. I’ve been *psychotically* suicidal since age 3, and now I’m going on 30 with 15 failed attempts I wish worked. My suicidal thoughts will never leave me (or people like me). It’s false hope to tell people the thoughts will leave. Instead, it’s better to tell one that it’s ok to have harmful thoughts-just don’t act on them. I only “got better” after a psychologist explained this to me. 6 years attempt-free, but think of it daily. It’s ok to have thoughts, but never ok to act on them.

@sapphirelane1714 Acute akathisa made me suicidal. I'm so glad you're still here, and you're so right. Thinking and doing are 2 different things. It's not false hope, peple do and can make it to the other side of medication hell. Medication induced suicide. it does and can get better. That's the hope I'm offering to people, because we all need some hope.

You have been absolutely cognizant and articulate in this interview.

I was told not to pull the emergency string in the bathroom unless it was an emergency (I was having a panic attack and was incredibly dizzy) and so I asked one of the nurses to wait either in or outside the bathroom incase I passed out and she said ‘no you’re too old for that’ (insinuating my request was “childish”) and then I did in fact pass out and nobody came to help. I was also told I was going to have to stay for four extra days because “they don’t want to do paperwork on Saturdays” so I requested a patient advocate and an AMA sheet and they let me go when they realized I was well enough to call out their bullshit.

So glad I am seeing this tonight, my doctor's appointment is tomorrow. I won't argue with him, but I will not take it..I am 64 and no drug involved

Jess, I hope you read this and know we are cheering you on! Your story brought tears to my eyes. Years ago I had my own drug injury , but escaped with minimal harm. Even though you don't feel anything - We see your beautiful heart, intelligence and wisdom shining through. Don't let the evil drug destroy your fighting spirit. Wishing you all the strength, resilience and peace needed to heal!

I have a friend that lives in a nursing home because he was on respiradone for many years. It ruined is life.

Jess, thank you for sharing your story - what a harrowing experience. My heart goes out to you in hopes that you find solace soon.

Such a great interview. This young lady has suffered greatly but I can tell her mind is healing. She is doing better than she thinks. Keep reading, doing mind puzzles. Your brain is a muscle and yours is being restored. Praise Jesus. Hang in there and keep moving forward.

Not a muscle, but it always wants to return to baseline. It may take years, but without physical alterations, it will heal.

Took abilify and went into psychosis. I also saw black shadow people and was terrified. It was the scariest thing I ever went through.

This was my story 19 years ago. Keep moving forward. You will get through it.

Everyone needs to watch this and hear her story. This could e easily been my story, I just waited it out and let the drugs take its course. It definitely freaked me out but I had experienced with drugs for years. I feel for this girl man and I pray God restores her back 💯%. If you read this, reach out to God and he will heal body mind and soul ❤

Hmmmm my ex took this med. He went from being locked in responsible to overspending on his credit cards $30,000. Then he took $40,000. out of his IRA. He defaulted on his student loans. Could not keep a job. Then suicidal.

I spent all of my savings in one month and I drove across my entire state every single week for absolutely no reason other than feeling restless and cause it was fun. I completely lost my mind on these drugs! Lost my savings and put almost 15k miles on my car in 3 months. Most of the time i would close my eyes while driving as well in an attempt to off myself. These medicines are poison.

So glad that Jess mentioned Angie Peacock as someone who's been helping her through this horrific experience. Having been through so much herself, Angie is a gift to anyone who's looking for a guide who gives hope through the healing process from psychiatric drug and treatment harm. Jess, thank you so much for sharing your story. Time is a great healer. You will get better in time. You're a really special, beautiful woman. Your story will lead to greater awareness and positive change for countless people. Stay strong and God bless!

I had a friend who was a gymnast with amazing dexterity, strength, energy, and topped off with a very nice, fit body. Six months taking this poison and he became unrecognizable: ballooned up and weighed about 60 lbs heavier! I made it a point to avoid this poison and inform others of the dangers. Shame on “doctors” who just dismiss struggling patients with more poison - y’all are really helping people. Right.
