RE: If You Are Struggling with a Mental Illness, Do Yourself a Favor and Seek Professional Help!

in #life5 years ago

I am totally with you on this one. For one, the western medicine approach often uses the numbing way to make a patient less active, hyper or sensitive. That's in a way turning the patient into a vegetable state by drugging them. It's not exactly for curing. And it's very true that most patients don't realize they are ill. Some people thought depression is a normal way of life.

you say this so well, I have seen this remark over and over again in the groups I am in. I do not have this problem and have never had the medications. But SO MANY people in the groups say they wish they could feel things again. The medication has them floating in some way and they want to stop. But they can't because it is so hard to get off them with many side effects. It's a big mess!

I notice that they tend to sleep a lot though unwillingly. The side effects I've read about are scary. They could be serious than the mental issue itself.
