The amount of pill-pushing by psychiatrists towards uninformed mental patients leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. In my experience (for what it's worth) in any other health domain, be it treatment of diabetes or just the fucking abominable diet pills, people get an honest and on an "equal footing" consultation. You can probably imagine already where I'm going with this. Waaaaay too many times psychiatrists flatly ignore the concerns and requests of tangible information about the psychotropic drugs they're so fucking eager to dump on mental patients, and why should they? They're crazy, they're not competent to take any decisions, pfffft. Damn assholes.
