How is it funny? You’re being hurtful and mean and jump on my throat for expressing something I lived through. I’m not launghing. I’m sad

And none of this is my fucking fault. Remember when i said “sorry that happened to you” and tried to find a middle ground and you kept attacking me for no reason?

Unlike you, i’m not trying to hurt anybody’s feeling. You deeply hurt mine though, and you clearly don’t care. I tried to be nice to you and you kept being hurtful.

You’re just a mean person buddy. Nothing to do with pills or mental disease.

no ofc not. I go on lemmy to fucking relax not take your sarcasm. I had to carry an suicidal SO to the psychward, where the fucking guy told me "I’m only handling pure psychiatric cases (aka so i can prescribe pills), then the day afterward I found her unconscious and I had to carry her to the emergency. Fuck you for defending psychiatrists and all the people that suffered because of them.

Yeah my grandma couldn’t keep her key for the life of her. It makes me sad to think she spent her whole life not knowing what was happening to her.

Maybe we could give benzos for free so the woman can bare sexism.

Maybe we could give benzos to women so they can bare their shitty housewife life.

Ah wait, we’re already doing that lmao

Did that occur to you that medication isn’t for everybody? I’ve been prescribed pills and I felt terrible.

There’s nothing to be misconstructed. https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/193nmt1/142_million_in_undisclosed_conflicts_of_interest/

It’s the truth.

That with that kind of defeatism the US would still live under jim crow laws.

That’s not what i said. I’m fully aware ADHD meds allows some people to simply function, even regardless of the environment.

That being said, it’d be naive to think pharma companies aren’t bribing psychiatrists on a daily basis. Medicalizing neurodivergence is problematic in its own right.

Come on buddy we’re all friends here, don’t sarcasm me, please :)

Well i’m very good at my job because i hate bad interface. I’m “sucessful”. Going to the bank is still extremely stressful for me. I don’t think it’s a superpower. These conditions are charzcterized by spikey profile with disabilities in some stuff and exceptional abilities in other

Yeah if you wanna go to work, just sit on the back of the bus, grandma

And the rest of that cohort will blindly oblige as big pharma’s paying for their holiday. I have no trust in psychiatrists tbh

Yes and no. I knew a guy that was biking and had an accident. He lost his legs. He because an athlete, did sailing and climbed mountain and stuff. He still couldn’t use a normal bike. Do you get what I mean? You can do self-help as much as you want but you can’t ask a blind person to look at the sky.

Or more like you can ask, but you’ll probably get a blank stare.

Sorry for the bad joke

Or maybe it’s time to understand that mental issues aren’t as clearcut as viruses that you can test in a lab. As long as we don’t understand the fine grain of how the whole brain work (and so far we only have ideas about it, not the whole story), the yes/no diagnostic will stay a dead end imo.

Sorry to hear you have trouble though, I hope you still lives ok <3 good luck!

We all know the medical system is flawed and adopts a paternalist / validist approach to neurodiversity (not to mention straight up corruption by big pharma). I don’t want to fetishize self-diagnostic, but if I went to my doctor to say “I’m depressed”, nobody will doubt my experience, so why would it be any difference for neurodivergence.

Yup. They burned my grandma’s city to hide the looting.

His blood is like 80% fat, how can he even survive
