It's not ok to diagnose people and prOscribe medications.

I don't think we're as divided on this issue as we may seem to be. Let me clarify that I believe these drugs have their uses, but as a person trying to enter the mental health field, I have serious concerns about the side effects about the drugs I will be giving to my patients. I absolutely agree that antipsychotics are useful for acute psychosis. I'm much more worried about their safety being used long term as a mantienence medication with regards to EPS and metabolic side effects.

Oh yeah for sure if it’s for any other use, I would be concerned about that too. Any time I see something like Geodon prescribed to someone who has no current or history of delusions or hallucinations I’m immediately asking staff why this person is on something like Geodon

You shouldn’t see zyprexa, Geodon, risperidone, or Halodol prescribed for anything other than acute psychosis once you are out in the field

The one you might see frequently prescribed to adults who don’t have psychosis is seroquel. That seems to be a one size fits all medications that may very well be dangerously (considering it is indeed an antipsychotic) overprescribed

Just to prep you on what to expect for adult patients

As a kid i saw small black creatures behind a table in the den. They terrorized me at night popping out from the shadows.

When I was four a thought entered my mind one particular day "One day your daddy's gonna die."

Well, now he's dead.

I was four.

I was driving home from the local store back in early 2017 and a thought came to me that scared me to death "Your mama is going to die."
A few months later she developed heart failure and hurt for 23 days and died.

Every fucking bad thought that comes into a mind isn't mental 'illness' its just God Almighty talking.
Every good thought too.

didn't find any rage

You should illustrate this for the plebs so we can feel bored together. I thought those were like rep grinds for mounts and stuff.

Admittedly I'm too busy talking about drugs and 911 and aliens and biblical prophecy to really get classic wow, I am interested though!

I'm really enjoying proscriber btw.

A lot of the posts being made here are confusing.

I sorta want to ask my doctor for some anxiety meds. Maybe something for sleep, too!

The days followed by the nights without sleep are the absolute worst lol.

My posts are crisp, concise, well orchestrated, and to the fucking point.
If you want a good night's sleep drink a 6pack.

Do a little research into benzo withdrawal if you haven't. I've seen that first-hand and it's bad.. One of the few withdrawals that can kill you. It's a great short term drug, but dear god that withdrawal is awful if you form a habit. Takes forever to get back to normal (if you do).

Another issue I have with psych meds is there isn't nearly enough research or support for people weaning off this stuff, should intolerable side effects happen. My ex boyfriend had problems getting his script filled once and the world was spinning while he was driving. Fun stuff. Doctors simply aren't informed most of the time from what I've seen. Fuck effexor.
