Antipsychotics Exposed: Shocking Truths Behind Psychiatric Drugs

In this video, we explore the truth about psychiatric drugs, specifically antipsychotics, and their potential dangers to both the brain and overall health. We examine how these drugs can damage liver, thyroid, and skin cells, leading to a variety of health problems. Furthermore, we discuss how antipsychotics affect the frontal lobes of the brain, causing patients to become indifferent and unable to recognize the negative effects of the medication. We also delve into how these drugs are considered the most toxic of all psychiatric drugs, with powerful sedative effects that can knock down a person with just one dose. Additionally, we address how long-term use of psychiatric drugs can result in a deteriorating quality of life, often without the patient being aware of the decline. While medical professionals may remain oblivious to the damage being caused, family members and loved ones often recognize the negative effects of psychiatric drugs on the patient. Watch this video to learn more about the potential risks associated with antipsychotic drugs and whether they are really safe for use.

In my experience, psychiatric drugs made me a lot sicker. I was 15 was prescribed zoloft and zyprexa after being diagnosed with OCD, depression and Asperger's syndrome. I remember my doctor telling me that I'm going to become well, the irony.. After 2 months on the drugs i attempted suicide and was hospitalised for 3 months, was forced to take a cocktail of high-dose psych drugs (snri & mood stabilizer, atypical antidepressant and antipsychotic). They gave me a ton of terrible side effects and made me a mindless zombie, i couldn't even process what was happening around me. Leaving the hospital, i had more severe anxiety and was prescribed a different, higher-dose antipsychotic that made me even sicker. Seeing the outcome of taking the drugs, i quit them cold turkey without knowing abt the withdrawal symptoms i was going to experience. Withdrawal symptoms or medication changes came hand in hand with relapses, more hospitalizations and missing school. A few hospitalizatuons later i had general and social anxiety so severe that i stopped going to school entirely and developed agoraphobia overtime and after a benzo withdrawal, psychosis. Only now i realize how my doctor's 'therapy' destroyed me. Everything got worse. I started with 3 diagnoses and ended up with agoraphobia, social phobia, generalized anxiety and severe psychosis, as well as lack of motivation and apathy and worse brain fog. I can't even work. The only reason I'm not giving up is bcu I finally understand what happened and have found the courage and some level of strength to keep going even though I've got my whole life to fix after what has happened. I hope that every person who got worse or whose life was ruined, like mine, after going to a psychiatrist gets well soon. - After 5 years on psych drugs i can confirm what millions of people who have also been medicated say: Psych drugs can & truly do destroy lives.

The psychaitrist lied saying I threatened to kill people that because I didn't show up I'm mentally incompetent and a bunch of other shit. Legit perjury. I wasnt even woken up for the court date that day so the fact they said im mentally incompetent for not showing up blows my mind. Theews no alarm clocks at a fucking psych ward.

I catch myself endlessly staring out the window in a trance

[@samstits8982]

At this point I feel like people would be better medicated for psych conditions with morphine or some shit just to pacify them. I took abilify because they told me I had a somatic pain disorder. I felt like I could stare out the window all day watching birds. Turns out I just got fibromyalgia very young lol. They have me on adderall now to combat brain fog. Il never know if it was the meds or not. I always think about the movie meet the Robinson s when I’m feeling down about it. Keep moving forward.

I know Buspar (Buspirone) isn't an anti-psych, but I only took it for 1 week and I was extremely apathetic afterwards. I couldn't even cry or show sympathy (I did try, though it was extremely hard) to my girlfriend at the time who was processing trauma and going through a lot :/ That was the moment I started questioning if medication was right for me, and threw that shit in the trash

I know everyone in the comment section is saying they had a negative experience but what about the people that have newly been diagnosed with schizophernia like my sister. One night she just switches and we have been losing her eversince. She runs, screams and talks loudly to herself. She has lost everthing in life. We have to find her under bridges 😭. How in the world do you help a person like this without medication? Its not possible. What you guys are saying is unrealistic. We are afraid we will find her in the worse senario 😭😭

If you have bipolar than they will help you if prescribed well by a good doctor. If the drugs for bipolar are given to a person with ought this condition then that will temper with the brain in a bad way.

Diet, nutrition, good psychotherapy, have good ppl around you. Find a holistic psychiatrist if you can. Don't just stop the drugs as its very dangerous, it would have to be done slowly.

[@chris-hz1pc]

For my own context who is the man talking?

[@chris-hz1pc]

I have answered my own question. For anyone wondering it is Dr Peter Breggin, MD, psychiatrist

[@1990ftcu]

I’m not against what this psychiatrist is saying. But if you try to reach out to him or anyone who practices what he believes, you barley get any response. They can speak the truth about these drugs because their patients have enough money to provide to them due to the fact that they aren’t insurance based. Most psychiatrists like him don’t follow the governing rules that health insurance require. So that leaves no solutions for people who want the help bht don’t have the income

[@user-sc1es4wz4g]

I spend the whole day at home watching you tube. My mind is blank and I have no motivation to do anything. I also developed degenerative disk disease in my spine. I'm 2 inches shorter. I gained 100 lbs. Unfortunately I'm schizophrenic. And without the meds I'm not on earth. Whats the alternative. Be completely insane or be somewhat normal.

[@MagicalJuJuBee]

Maybe switch medications? I have bipolar depression and had to switch a couple times.

[@active96]

There's a movie out there that might help you out with an answer, A beautiful mind

[@TeresavanLieshout]

Write a book.

[@AliKwj]

Switch meds, lower dosage and practice meditation, make mindfulness a habit. Don’t cut it off cold turkey, people sharing such videos are as dangerous as what they post. They are not aware of the consequences of convincing people getting off their medications, I suspect. Switch meds or lower dosage with meditation is my advice to you. The ones who say write a book or watch a movie need to turn it down a bit, you’re kinda clueless, and I say that in the most respectful way.

[@active96]

@@AliKwj since you are aware of so many things why not say what it does to quit cold turkey? I've done it and got my life back.. took several months just to get most of the damage those meds did out, they warned me that i would go psychotic and so much crap but till this day the psychiatrist couldn't even tell. If anything i learned that psychology is not a science and those meds benefit the doctors far more than they benefitted me.. if anything it ruined parts of me and made me have to start my life again with a very little wish to do so. If there is so many people complaining about antipsychotics all over the internet maybe there is a reason for it, you know?

But we're told drugs are the only answer and it isn't always true. It can be treated with diet, nutrition, lifestyle and the right support. No one should be forced to take these drugs long term, it shortens lifespan and causes so many side effects.

Benn on drugs, over 15 of them, for over 20 years. Body cooked brain who knows, liver probably looks like hamburgers and like her said my thyroid idk it's gotta be pretty shot up because I act like someone with a thyroid deficiency. Worst drug is definitely Seroquel. Parents keep your kids off drugs regardless what doctors say. I'd say if it's schizophrenia, meds probably are the best option but if it's bipolar and ocs and add meds are not what you wanna do you gotta learn tricks and use common sense you gotta do a lot of talking and think better ways of dealing with emotions and stop yourself in the moment and chill out just breathe man it works more than you wanna believe it does. These meds they all fuck you up worse than your mind does I swear it

[@Hithere-dc2qx]

Even for schizophrenia these meds are not the best option. Especially considering the dopamine super sensitivity psychosis one can experience upon stopping their meds
