Big Pharm is messing up my life
#21
RE: Big Pharm is messing up my life
Yeah, your problem is that you have a shit doctor. Unfortunately, the mental health world is full of them. The hallmark of a good doctor is one that listens to their patients, especially about how medications affect them. The reality of seeking treatment for mental health is that you have to shop around to find a doctor that works for you. There's no single agreed upon method to treat mental issues, so the doctors are going to vary quite a bit in their approach.

And unfortunately, as Min. pointed out, there is quite the relationship between the docs and the pharm. companies. If you have a doctor pushing a drug on you without listening to your input, that's a red flag that you have a doctor with money on the mind and not your best interests.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
