Forums that hold anti psychiatry views

I think I stumbled across another mental illness forum that possibly is anti psychiatry.

Does anyone know of these forums?

Can you name them?

Don’t really feel comfortable visiting there anymore.

I’ve found this website to be the most pro-med pro-psychiatry forum I’ve stumbled across.

I don’t remember all the names of the various other websites I’ve visited.

Yeah this is what I like about this forum, it is very much pro med.

Not sure if I’ll go back to the other forum.

I was actually very disappointed.

In general I am pro-med because my current meds work. But I have had some bad experiences so I can understand why some people are anti-med, especially if they have had nothing but bad experiences, side effects and ineffectiveness.

I’m anti-olanzapine but I am pro-lurasidone.

Yeah I’ve had plenty of bad experiences with different meds.

The cocktail I’m on now seems to be working.

I am also pro-med because no-meds was NOT working out for me in a big, ugly way. I know a human who IMHO desperately needs to be evaluated and perhaps medicated (I’m not a Doctor) but takes a stance of “I’m fine, I just get like this sometimes, I’m not taking any meds, f*ck off”. It’s difficult because I see this person suffering needlessly, and they could be getting some relief. Anti-med as a display of personal fortitude.

Yeah, me too. Although my clonazepam seems to be losing effectiveness for sleep. I’m down to about 6 hours a night. I used to be getting 8. So I may have to find something else and taper off that in a few months. We’ll see what happens, I can’t sleep without some sort of pill.

Oof. Klonopin (Clonazepam) became a monster for me. Same story you’ve probably heard a million times, used as directed…then not. Then more not. My idiot shrink at that time gave me a script for 100, refillable ANY TIME. And that was that. Miserable detox, and no more benzos for me.
