Long time no see. I'm on psychiatric medication, but it doesn't seem to be working at all.
I gain weight, my daily rhythm is disrupted, my appetite increases, my head feels foggy, and I feel like it only has negative effects.
It's true that I receive disability pension, so I think I have to endure the negative effects, but I think the problem is that psychiatrists often don't try to change the prescription even when the side effects are severe.
Also, in the first place, psychiatrists themselves simply examine and prescribe according to manuals, but they themselves are not aware of the negative effects of psychiatric drugs.
I think there is.
In any case, I would like to see better mental health care.
