Ugh, and people wonder why I don't like doctors. I've only ever been to one that didn't act like I was too stupid to understand how my own body worked and that was at USA Gymnastics, which has its own issues.

I thought I was pretty clear about what I was arguing about.

There’s lots of people who have anosognosia, paranoia, and other symptoms which make getting medical care incredibly hard. It’s not easy to struggle with psychosis and have someone trying desperately to convince you that the medical professionals that you have access to are cruel and untrustworthy. I can’t possibly be the only mentally ill person here so I’m not just saying this for my own sake or because of my own relationship with Tommy.

I went without my medication until he showed up because I didn’t trust any of the other medical professionals even though there’s no logical reason for that. The half life on most other medication isn’t that good and most people aren’t going to be lucky enough to have their own personal doctor show up in the nick of time. It’s shady to inspire fear about the staff, especially from a comfortable position of not needing to be medicated to function.

	I am glad you have the help you need, but I hardly call what she said fear mongering for mentioning some people were dissuaded by what some might call “mild” effects. Commercials for medication provoke more fear. (Reply to this) (Parent)
