prozac/fluoxitine makes you agressive depressed tearful homocidal suicidal etcetera. you can feel all these things within the space of a few minutes of the drug taking affect. other drugs can make you dangerous fact, staff practice put down/pin down because they hate and descriminate against patients whom they consider a problem or risk to them, meaning their job. there is no actual test to prove mental illness only the opinion of drug pushers for eli lilly novartis glaxo etcetera

Thanks ItsABitMadTed for uploading. It is so frustrating to watch as I can see how the interviewers and the general public will find it hard to grasp the concept which we know to be true. How can we explain clearly about diagnoses being an invention and 'medication' not actually being medication as the public would understand it and defending yourself against coercion. It is difficult.

Thanks for uploading this, ItsABitMadTed. I shall continue to assert that where I am protected by privilege, John Hunt is dogged by prejudice. This is a psychosocial issue. All bio-psychiatry does is re-traumatise people and further damage them. Much love, Gráinne Xxx

Well done, Grainne and John for standing up, asserting the truth about the mythical /medical model. Society's naive acceptance and ignorance of psychiatry is a tough nut to crack but more of us are seeing the truth and speaking out. Mental distress and human responses to trauma are medicalised and worsened by psychotropic medication - survivors who reject the model and get help to deal with the trauma recover yet those maintained in hospital or on treatment orders remain stuck in illness.

There is no good answer. It's very hard for family members to accept the reality of their loved one's psychosis.

In my case, the anti-psychotics allows my husband to live at home. Without them he'd be institutionalized, in prison, or we'd both be dead.

There's no good answer and there is no happy ending.
