This is my second post still feeling miserable. I've been fooled to think that psychiatrists are there to help but really are just there playing the game. Was looking for a decent doctor for almost ten years prescribing tranquilizers to sleep and whatever placebo medication that does nothing. It makes sense to keep a patient sick to keep getting paid as opposed to giving patients what they need but by doing that, they will see one less patient to receive income from.

Sorry everyone I don't mean to be such a downer, I used to be a nice guy but that got me nothing and nowhere not that I was looking to get anything out of it. I've come to realize that there is no help, the only kind of help there is is self-help.

I hope this qualifies as my 4th post so I can get a faster reply in a chatroom so maybe all five of my threads will be reviewed and approved over the weekend. I used to workout everyday for almost a year but I got burned out mentally by exercising by myself.

Hello Deuce: Typically new posts are reviewed more quickly than over the weekend. It appears most, if not all, of yours are already up. Obviously this 4th one is. Otherwise, I wouldn't be replying to it. I'm no longer on psych med's & I don't see a therapist. I still have a psychiatrist, but I only see him a couple of times a year, just to keep my foot in the door, as they say. I pretty-much agree with you. The only real help is self-help.

Hi Deuce,
I'm sorry that you feel that way! I really hope that you are able to find some more hope in the future through your passions or whatever you may find works for you.
You are not alone in this struggle, my friend.
Keep fighting!

hi, what also helped me in the past is next to selfhelp some understanding from people around. so actually friendship can do some good. but well that was in the past. at this point my problems are very difficult and friendship is very difficult to build up and maintain.
