What Abuses Have You Suffered at the Hands of a Psychiatrist or Psychologist?
Question by 52Perceptions: What abuses have you suffered at the hands of a psychiatrist or psychologist?
Please tell me any abuses you have suffered including drugs you have been told to take that actually harmed you, false labels they gave you and so on. Did they tell you the bad effects of the drugs they were prescribing? Did they tell you the “disorders” are invented and then voted on at their annual conference? Whatever it is, I would like to know.
Martell…oh, no, its not a thesis. I really wanted to get some idea of just what kind of response I would get to this question. Thanks for your answer.
[= …Well, actually I don’t have one…they are not good for the health. After all they claim they cannot cure anyone of anything.
Bill…for a top contributor you didn’t contribute much. You could have saved wear and tear on your keyboard.

Answer by Martell
My question to you, is why are you interviewing people re this question. I am answering, because long ago, I was in therapy in Berkeley, when my psychiatrist said he could no longer see me professionally in the Berkeley Mental Health Agency, but could see me on a personal basis. I was so depressed, I said yes, and he basically raped me. It took me 3 months before I could stop this “relationship”. Drugs had no part of the abuse. I can’t support your thesis. But I do believe that there needs to be more transparency in treatment in general.
