Yes, it must be very difficult to know it all.
Unfortunately in the case of the mentally ill,
especially those of us that are symptomatic
these biased opinions can cause great harm.
We need to make choices for ourselves. We also
need to know what is available with just the facts.
It is not a friggin sporting event where one is
better than another and criticizing one treatment
or industry over another makes an individual a
smart person, knowledgable person or for that matter a source of information.
Please for all those that wish to advise the
mentally ill on something you have never experiences leave your biases in your head.
We don't need to be influenced by scare tactics,
we do need treatment, and we need to have the
freedom and choice to make those decisions.
Ultimately, we are always responsible for our
actions, and that includes choice of treatment
or not.
When someone like Antigen makes biased comments
and influences an unstable person to make a
decision based on a bias, instead of facts,
then it is the mental person who pays the price
and has to live with it. Not Antigen and those
like here.
So please, drop the biased statemtents, I/we
don't want to be hurt any more than the damage
the illness has already done.
