Make patient friendly changes to the M.H.Allow patients control of their betterments,& alternatives to psychiatric drugs

Created by T.S. on August 20, 2014

I was diagnosed schitzophrenic after a year homeless at age 18 because I talked of a violent encounter with law enforcement as I tried to turn in information of odd foreigners before 09/11/2001. I'm sure that a positive difference should have been made yet to no avail I have tried describing my concerns just to feel alienated by stares of confusion. The drugs I was given left me feeling froze in the mind, Like I tried to read a paragraph yet had to reread the same sentence 3 times to interpret it.
I have a degree as a pharmacy technician & I know that Tardive Dyskinesia is what some friends I found were coping with.I'd rather see them talking well and learning new things even if that's only beginners life skills.
The mh system needs a lot of differences for people to benefit from using it.
