Legalised Drug pushers !

4 YEARs of Primary pill taking containment in lieu of an Autism diagnosis.

Approx, 4 years ago I crashed and burned by uncontrolled life changing stresses with anxiety and depression referred to psychiatrist by the GP,, given pills, pill and more pills and false diagnosis of OCD, social phobia within a mental health setting which was full of psychopaths, druggies and alcoholics, the type of people mostly likely to affect my state of mind. So, I refused to take anymore pills (after 4 years of pill popping as a good patient) but as nothing was changing in my state of being I had enough of pills, so I got referred to a psychologist who highlighted that I was continuing on the observate signs of the Autism Spectrum, so for 4 years of my life was a waste going around a system which is not designed for autism aspergers diagnosis,, because only children have autism,, is that not right NAS. NO ! but you would think it so. Anyway, long story short adult autism clinical staff do a hour assessment and confirm the psychologists opinion. So in reality the GP and two different psychiatrists missed my condition.. BECAUSE SIMPLY THEY ARE JUST PILL PUSHERS, legalised drug dealers.

And NAS you wonder why those with Adult Autism are pissed off ! There you go. See why !

  • I suspect this has happened to thousands of people, and the problem is once they start taking those pill then can turn into zombies or never get out of the cycle - I was also misdiagnosed for decades and offered pills, in fact every time you go to the doctor then think a pill is the answer - I don't know exactly how the system works but I am sure its open to abuse - why else to drug companies pay for doctors golf holidays ! It is just like legalised drug pushing like you say.

    I am relieved that I had the wisdom to say no to drugs - although I tried them once and I felt like my eyes were popping out, I worry for those who have been taking drugs long term as I think there chances of recovery diminishes the longer they have taken the drugs.

    I am glad you had the wisdom to stop the drugs, I wondered if I could sue someone for this as someone has to be responsible for misdiagnosis for all those years, its almost as if they don't really give a £$%$, anyone who thinks or behaves differently from the norm must have a learning disability or be mentally ill so just pump them full of pills and let them rot - its cheaper and more convenient that way.

    Saw this post, you prob not on discussions nnymore. My son stuck in pill system for 13 years. pills are stopped now, but stopping them has scrambled his mind. Trying to come out of it, reading comments like yours of recovering diminishes if on a long time doesn't fill me with the hope I need right now.

    Be nice for someone to say he will come back, one person has said that, but for someone like me who in despair I need more rays of hope.
