What we need is Pharma control..
I agree with the Pharma question to a point. What we are ignoring the elephant in the room. What about the access to marijuana and the effects on psychosis in certain individuals?
I am not aware of any psychotropic effects of marijuana. I will say that I am not expert and haven't smoked since high school. I know the stuff that it out now is for more potent, but I have been stupid high before and all I could do was lay on the floor. Hard to imagine natural unadulterated pot causing psychotropic effects
There has been a couple studies recently talking about long term use can certain individuals can increase schizophrenia and bipolar disorder symptoms. But it's mainly people with a predisposition of the mental illness in their family or use with other drugs as well
I know there is a correlation between mental illness and narcotics use, however I think it is still debated whether there is causation or a likelihood of self-medication. It may simply be a chicken before the egg argument. It is harder to be certain because there may be examples of both cases of one preceding the other. Either way, I think narcotic abuse is simply dumb.
The fact this information is suppressed is equally criminal
SSRIs for the kill. Been saying this since I visited Columbine the days after the attack when the memorials were building and people were mourning. I coincidentally golfed across the road from there the day prior.
Creepy.
I think it's not the med as much as it is related to the "therapist'...
A properly diagnosed person with the correct medication for the diagnosis is going to be more sane than your average normal person. That's if they continue to take their medication on time with no skips.
You are far too trusting of the psychiatric industrial complex. There is no such thing as appropriate meds and no such thing as a proper diagnosis, most of the time its guesswork and allopathy.
Plus they are not very bright people at all, psychiatry is just something that provides an easy way to a consultancy status
