Yeah this forum is scary as shit but surprisingly positive compared to the antipsychiatry sub on Reddit. Still it is really hard to be around constantly suicidal people.

As of right now I only check this sub to see if there are more recovery stories.

Good luck.

There was this guy on there who kept commenting on people’s posts telling people it never gets any better and no one will ever recover and then it was pointed out by someone that he had only been off the drugs for a couple months after having been on them for years. There’s multiple people like that and it is really a cesspool of negativity.

Some people respond and give hope but it’s few and far between.
 
Guys, I don’t understand.

When I was out on antipsychotics I originally refused and asked to be put on lithium instead, which is what I was using before.

My doctor refused to put me back on lithium like I requested because it was “too dangerous” and would destroy my thyroid. I understood and accepted this complication about lithium and it didn’t bother me because of the levothyroxine I’d take to level out my thyroid.

So she forced me on antipsychotics… which I told her I didn’t want to because they could give me tardive dyskinesia… and I got it…

In what world is hypothyroidism more dangerous than tardive dyskinesia?! In what world is irreversible brain damage more acceptable than potentially reversible damage to your thyroid, which is 100% treatable with pills anyway?

I’m stunned by psychiatry. That’s all for today, folks.
