by all the things we are doing now...we have many problems that have to do with our own behavior....we are not living healthy lifestyles...
if someone has a serious depression we need to know what is causing this depression...
I don't believe we all need antidepressants...I take an antidepressant and I see a psychiatrist because I was put on the antidepressant a long time ago because I was told it was for a lifetime....for me that was a mistake...I cannot speak for you...but I can speak for me..times have changed...I want to be on the very best bus...I personally believe psychiatry has gone downhill...I saw it with my own eyes...I saw it as a psychiatrist and as a patient and as someone who was a very sick puppy...

little turtle,
i am having huge panic attacks.also having problems of concentration - finding it difficult to read the newspaper or a story book.have to force myself to do these.need emotional support.
prior to this i had to be hospitalized under a new doctor due to my anger outbursts. had developed akathasia as a side-effect to anti-psychotics. now i have come back home and am seeing my old doc. the anger is gone and he told me not to take risperidal - so the akathasia is almost gone too. now i am taking 50 mg x 2 of amisulphride and 2mg x 2 of trihexyphenidyl to counter the leftover akathasia. but new problems like panic attacks have emerged.need help.
