What experience changed your perspective on self medication?
Antidepressants, antianxiety, and especially antipsychotics drugs are horrible, and I feel they should be banned. They turned me into a person who felt nothing. The side effects were terrible too: weight gain, dizziness, lightheadedness, etc. One really upsetting aspect of it was that the doctor laughed at me when I complained of the side effects and how they made me feel. I really got the feeling he thought that I was a crazy woman who couldn’t possibly know what she was feeling. It turned me against the entire field of mental health.
