Using virtual reality

Here is an article I found for my project. I think it is a good start. My project is to see if virtual reality can cut the use of psychotropic drugs.

Wow, sounds good man. Is this for school?

Yeah it is for a school project in hopes to reduce anxiety and depression. I think the goal is to reduce psychotropic drug use.

It is evidence-based with goals of cutting psychotropic drug use for the elderly.i think the ultimate goal of any psychiatrist is to use the most effective dose with as low as a dose possible.

If this project is implemented at my place it can have huge ramifications because the elderly are more susceptible to side effects.

you’re talking like you’re delusional…virtual reality isn’t for schizophrenics to replace meds…it won’t work !! you’re reaching for straws…

Please read the article it is mainly for those with anxiety disorders. I never said it will eliminate drugs just possibly reduce them.

Virtual reality is a trigger for me because when I was delusional I thought I was trapped inside a computer world…like in the Matrix but that movie hadn’t even come out when i was ill…no, go away with this thread.

It’s not about the matrix it is using virtual reality to desensitize people to their environment. Didn’t mean to trigger you.

@moderators if this is triggering please close it.

@Ninjastar, @Moonbeam, @anon9798425 was it a bad idea to mention this article? I just wanted to post something educational.
