I'm right there with ya. I recently got off SSRI meds after over two decades of abuse by the medical system. I got chewed up, spit out, and now I'm a wreck that has to rebuild his life and hope that the lasting side effects eventually fade.
I would be lost right now if it weren't for my loving mother and family. I know a lot of people are struggling with similar problems and they don't have a support system. I just wanted to reach out to these folks and let them know that they're not alone.
Things are rough right now, but we will get through this together! We were chosen for this battle, that's why we have the sharpest swords and the thickest armor.
I love all of you beautiful humans! God bless every single one of you!
Sadly, I live in the sticks and the best treatment I can currently get is therapy sessions and appointments to see a psych.
My county doesn't have a city in it lmao, it's nothing but small towns off 200-5000 people. Mental health services are incredibly lacking here.
That being said, thank you so much for this wonderful reply and the knowledge contained within. I hope if another frog is dealing with these issues that they can explore these treatment options.
I'm sorry to hear that. Please be aware that I'm referring to counseling licensure rather than psychology or psychiatry licensure.
