what do the NHS care if they prescribe medication that makes people suicidal?

pewpewmcdrew

Just a bunch of overpaid idiots dishing out medication then collecting a paypacket.

Risperidone made me self harm. It made me suicidal which me in a psychiatric ward. I had nightmares which kept waking me up. Worst time of my entire life. And I didn't even need it to begin with I'm not schizophrenic or anything.

But who gives a ****. As far as the NHS are concerned the more medication they can prescribe the more money they make. Making money is clearly more important than anything else.

Do psychiatrists get commission? Do they get a higher paypacket the more medication they prescribe? That's all it's about. I could very easily not be here typing this.

    Unfortunately there are not enough monitoring safeguards in an overstretched system.

    If you look at the data sheets for any psychoactive drugs you will see increased suicide risk is common early on or early during dose increases. It says you should seek help if you feel that way.

    Try getting help at 3:30pm on a Sunday in small town England...

    If you want to complain you go via patient services in the health trust you were in...but it's generally a system that I would not recommend unless you have an advocate to work with you.
