Anti Psychiatry

Introduction

Dec 11, 2006 note - I started this file in September but never posted it. I am going to post it now unfinished because I want people to begin to think about these things if they haven't already.

Original Introduction

When I met Ocean in Europe in June of 2006 she told me she had read several anti-psychiatry websites. This reminded me of an old friend of mine, Steve Brewer who had also told me a little about this movement. But that was many years ago and I had forgotten about it. When I got back to Argentina I did some googling and found a few things. I am sure there is much more but I want to start posting some of what I found. In the meantime, I encourage you to do your own searches for more anti-psychiatry sites. If you find some that you like, please let me know.

Writing from a teen

i cant fucking stop thinking about the mental hospital. god everything is replaying like exactley the same as it happened in my mind. over and over and over. i cant get it to stop.

maybe my obsessive exercising and calorie counting will stop it. and ill probably regret writing this later. but whatever. right now im not going to erase it cuz i really dont give a shit. im too busy thinking about j. and l. and those halls and that room.. agh. im just too busy thinking about all of it to think about anything else.

that fucking place did 10 times more harm to me than good. no, it actually did no good. it just made me anxious, scared, sick, and even more suicidal than i was before i fucking got in there.

those god damn "doctors" made me feel like shit.
