FAO MODERATORS

I consulted a 'normal' working in the care sector.

He said there was nothing in my original post warranting its removal and to assume its disappearance resultant from an errant spam filter..

I repost it here based on that assessment..

Hi,


I'm Karl Piza [nom de plume/guerre].

I've diagnoses of aspergers, schizophrenia and bipolar1. Though I believe the NHS woefully/dangerously ignorant.

A friend who is a psychiatrist agrees [at least about the ignorance] and thinks I am autistic with episodic stress-induced psychosis [not having schizophrenia or bipolar1].

I believe the psychoses [very late onset] are medical injury [super-sensitivity psychosis] from long-term inappropriate prescribing of neuroleptics [more appropriate name for 'anti-psychotics’] for a diagnosis of anxiety prior to my aspergers diagnosis.

I have been diagnosed with cirrhosis and have chronic pain since 'anti-depressant' withdrawal [also a misnomer/marketing terminology].

I am almost completely against psychiatry [as it currently operates though I greatly admire the work of Drs. Joanna Moncrieff and David Healy] and prefer being screamed at by voices from the moment I wake to lying in bed doing nothing with no feelings, creativity or drive. 


I was assessed by social services as requiring a bungalow, a P.A. and all professionals supporting me to have specialised autism training. That was five years ago. None of it happened. I have intense dislike for the tories' 14 years of devastation and decimation, and have little faith in 'tory-lite’.


I like music [esp. opera], cruciverbalism, cats, walking and youtube.


I have many difficulties with speech, self-care, executive function and independent living [a nonsense anyway.. INTER-dependence is crucial, the hallmark of our species/survival and failure to achieve it is why many of the socially inept can rightfully consider themselves disabled.. though this also requires a disabling environment] .

I have spent long periods struggling not to talk loudly/[near]constantly, even when alone and also had two [approx.] 3 month periods where I never spoke at all.

I have been drugged against my will and sectioned a number of times [and to large degree reasonably so - though I believe we should and must move away from the medical/pathological model asap]


I am enthusiastic about the benefits of singing and the creative arts in general.


I apologise if I fail to respond, I am struggling [unreasonably so, for reasons already stated or implied] and I have tired myself [and tend to excel in doing so]!


I look forward to reading more of others posts, ending this one, and am cognisant of/discomforted by all the 'I's herein despite this being my introduction.


Best wishes and..

Howdy Doody!


Karl


My introductory post and other contributions have been removed AGAIN.. no explanation/communication.. so so far I feel fully shamed/weird.. hope is overrated.. sure to disappoint..

A brief look shows interest according to my female friend..

Regardless. Mods are volunteers, and this service is totally free.

A brief look shows the income is £99,142,000, but the expenditure is £123,043,000

Mods may be volunteers but NAS is a business which took in over £99million in 2023, inclusing £78m from government contracts. It employs just under 2500 paid staff (five of whom were paid over £100k) [Charity Commission Annual Return 20223] 

Hi, I'm sorry you had this experience, I had similar and also struggling to fall asleep afterwards, thinking what I've done wrong. My post reappeared 3-4 days later and I've got a notification that my appeal has been accepted. I haven't sent any appeal but its OK. Yes, mods are volunteers and I'm grateful to them for the work they do to keep the space safe, this is the only space I feel fully myself without shame or being told that I'm weird because here im not. I hope your issue has been resolved or explained to you and that you can enjoy being here.

That'll be the Sz Dx.. who said that?! 

Yes.. I know you're me but you're freaking me out! And it's way past your bed time!

WAHAY.. [I'm back].. PIZA KAKE

Hi.. yes it's me.. Karl Piza.. mods have now removed my surname despite my clearly stating it's a made-up name [see profile].. plus.. now I can't log back in.. oh what a strange place..

It appears that your profile has been pulled down by a moderator. They are all powerful and follow the principle of "never explain, never apologise".  The site also uses bots which seem to have some "peculiarities".

Thanks Mark. I don't like ham in my bag.

Thanks. I am known to be both impatient and in-patient.

Mods are volunteers. Please be patient.

It's a common problem. Probably nothing you've done wrong, don't worry about it.

Mind you, it doesn't help that sometimes the moderators do remove posts when the rules haven't been broken.

In your case, it's likely just an over-active spam filter though.

I think it is only visible by visiting my profile.

Ah, it seems to have vanished again.

Thank you for restoring my post.
