Ok so I mean this in the most respectful way possible but I feel like it’s gonna come out standoffish. What have I done that’s been disrespectful? Like I want to improve and not hurt anybody or make anyone feel bad. But tbh a couple people have said I’m rude and disrespectful but idk what I’ve done? I genuinely just don’t know and am very confused?
Below is a link to a brief description of the differences between a psychiatrist and psychologist in the United States. This may well be different in other countries.
Note that either a psychiatrist or a psychologist can diagnose mentally illnesses. Since medication is the treatment of choice for schizophrenia, typically treatment is guided by a psychiatrist.

“Because of their medical training, psychiatrists can prescribe medication – probably the most commonly known distinction between the two fields. But a few states allow psychologists to prescribe a limited number of psychiatric medications if they’ve taken a course in psychopharmacology.”
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/schizophrenia/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20354449
“A psychiatrist experienced in treating schizophrenia usually guides treatment. The treatment team also may include a psychologist, social worker, psychiatric nurse and possibly a case manager to coordinate care. The full-team approach may be available in clinics with expertise in schizophrenia treatment.”

You come on pretty strong for someone with so many issues. Most schizophrenics aren’t like that. I wouldn’t push it too far. I’m understanding these days but show some respect to someone older than you. Seriously.

@Noise, this conversation is an example. He tried to end it several replies ago, but you seem to be unable to walk away from a conversation without securing 100% approval.

Getting into an argument with another forum member on a “How to Become a Better Forum Member” thread is likely not going to be helpful in achieving the goal of becoming a better forum member.

Sometimes you gotta know when to take a deep breath and step away from the thread.
