I think the difference is you are saying what they should do and I am saying what they will most likely do. I agree with you...they should not be doing this to other humans. Psychiatrists are really weird doctors...their history is actually built on the premise that inducing a second illness in a MI individual can cure them. They gave people malaria, electroshock, insulin coma in an attempt to make them even more sick to cure them. The antipsychotics were actually developed due to their tendency to promote Parkinson's and patients were monitored and their dose was actually increased until they had enough symptoms of the disease. Haldol was actually considered the best at this phenotype because it is a strong D2 blocker so it's use became dominant because it suppressed movement thinking etc...it was just a bonus that patients became sedated and restrained the idea was actually to make them twice as sick! The problem is they haven't made any advances since that time...there is no science to back psychiatry...
