I am on the fence about Mental drugs, I'm starting to wonder if they do more harm then good. I do believe that some people that are severely mentally ill might need to have medication for a short term. to get over the psychotic hump. But to be drugged up forever? I do not think that is good nor is it a permanent fix. These people many times are secretly dealing with a dark secret, Something they have never fully dealt with. Such as a good Friend of mine. He was molested by his blood uncle over and over again from the time he was 7 years old till he was 13 years old. He never received counseling or a support group for it. He has had to deal with this awful memories alone all of his life. No one to turn to to listen or to care to help him get some help. can you Imogen living like that?
I was rapped when I was 12 by 7 men. I managed to try to keep the secret as long as I could. until my older sister pointed out the bruises between my thighs to my parents. I was scoffed at and called a whore. I never had sex before that. And was not having a wanted sexual relationship with anyone. The whole sex thing made me physically ill to even think of how could a woman want to have sex with anyone. My mother was so embarrassed of me she honestly thought I was having sex with a guy because I wanted it. and she sent me away to live with my older sister. One night after 3 months my mother came to visit me. My sister and mom sat down at the dinning room table and just dropped a bomb on me with questions. I was not allowed to get up and leave the table until I told them what I was doing back then. I start crying uncontrollably and the bean just spilt all over without my control. I felt allot better after I finally got it off my chest. My sister called police. They came and took a report. We went to trial I was offered Victim Witness services for counseling. My mom made me go. I went every week 2 times a week for a year. then every other week one time a week for 7 years of my life. I'm so glad I got help. I was lucky I had people who cared. I never went mentally ill. I had slight depression off and on all my life. But i have been threw allot of things that has resulted in that.
sadly my friend never got help. He very mentally ill not by his own hands.
I have offered to get him counseling and he feel so embarrassed about the whole thing that he refuses to get help. He is now in his later 20's and is always going to be a victim. He is a prisoner in his own body and mind. To scared to let someone in to help. The psych meds drug him up so badly all his life has managed to come to his a comatose like state of sleeping. I never see him smile. He has no hope left. And he is still a baby. He is to young for this kind of life. He has gotten off the meds 1 time before and felt empty. He really needs Jesus. And good people who care for him around him. I hope and pray soon something good happens to him.
I do not think Mental health dugs can take away the dark seed like abuse or neglect has caused. That has to be brough out and dealt with. Or things will never get better. I personally know this from mine and many other peoples personal exsperances. Councelling is the way to go. That and church. Some kind of spirtualness. And loveing family and frineds who can support you and love you. Not people who are judgemental or gossipers.
This is just my thoughts. :)

Please before you put false charges and start pointing the finger and acuseing a person. get educated about Psychotic Disorders. POLICE NEED TO PAY ATTENCHEN TO THIS! NOT ALL PEOPLE ARE DANGERIOUS WHOM ARE PSYCHOTIC. LIKE MY HUSBAND SOME ARE JUST TRYING TO FIGUER OUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. AND WALK AROUND IN A DAZE AND TALK TO THEMSELFS AND DO STRANGE THINGS. If provoked could be vilont, Do not taunt, hit or or act mean towards some whom is having a Psychotic episode. They may take it as a threat and feel the need to protect themselfs. IF YOU GET HIT. MORE THE LIKELY YOU WERE DOING SOMETHING TO SCARE THE PERSON SUCH AS BEING ABUSEIVE YOURSELF. PSYCOTIC PEOPLE ARE NOT BAD OR SOME KIND OF MURDERS ETC. They are people just like us caught in a dream state. If you love someone whom is ill make sure they take thier meds dayly, or they could go to jail and be sent to prison just because the cops dont know how to deal with a mentally ill person. The cops belive that the person is acting strange because they feel like it. THAT COULDNT BE FATHER FROM THE TRUTH!!!!! SOMEONE NEEDS TO TEACH THE COPS ABOUT PSYCOTIC EPISODES! TO MANY MENTALLY ILL PEOPLE ARE GOING TO JAIL , ONLY BECAUSE THE COPS ARE UNDER EDUCATED ABOUT MENTAL ILLNESS.
