Do you have any?


I have OCD, anxiety and have been diagnosed with both and also with depression and ADHD but I don't believe I am depressed and I am not sure if I feel I am ADHD.


How about you?

Any psychiatrist can squeeze some kind of disorder out of anybody just to prescribe them pills to make the drug industry money.:bored:

But I do have a lot of anxiety diagnosed by Dr. Siekadellyk.

The only thing I've ever been diagnosed with professionally is depression. I took anti-depressants for 1 day, said fuck those and kept smoking weed and taking psychedelics.

I feel better these days, but the depression is kind of always there. I think it stems from my steady disappointment in reality. Some of us don't enjoy swallowing the bitter pill, but I'm as happy as someone like me can be.

Just living my life without letting it get me down is good medicine enough, and I thank weed for allowing me to do it.

A doc and a psych are two different things... you know that right?
a doc cant prescribe you those kinds of pills because hes not a mental health expert, you need to have a psych diagnose and prescribe them to you. But docs can refer you to a psych if need be however.

Ive been diagnosed with severe depression, mild bipolar disorder, and ADD

I feel like a completely normal person tho, dont feel depressed at all, although I dont think being depressed on occasion means you have "depression"

I do believe stuff like adderall helps me work more efficiantly, but shit it does the same thing to everybody, not like your immune to it if you dont have "ADD"

I personally think 90% or more of shit people are diagnosed with is bullshit but I do know those "disorders" exist

Im done with docs thinkin pills are the key to fix anything wrong with people, im better off without them... ive been through that system over again and ill just self medicate to make myself feel better if need be, I know my limits now and how I feel and react to certain things.



also why are you taking atropine and Hyoscyamine?

For IBD/IBS which is what the diphen is for too. Diphen is a opiate but doesn't cause any or much opiate like effect unless you take a shit load so they put atropine in it to kill anyone who tries to get high and also those alkaloids help with IBD/IBS but so does weed but apparently that is bad. :lol:
Thanks for the love, bro :hug:

Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that is a sedative in higher doses acting as a deleriant, its in a bunch of OTC drugs that ive seen kids eat like candy to trip out.

What dose of the presciption atrop/hyosc do you take for that... those are some extremely powerful drugs. I dont think its possible to get any higher than you could off those...

You know about Datura right?
one of the main plants where those alkaloids come from...

Im severely bi-polar.

Well, 'bi-polar' is tossed around a lot by the psych people these days
there are many different 'levels' of the 'disorder'

regardless what you wanna call it I have a severe mood disorder thats a fact

and no drug has ever helped me deal with these crazy emotions :nonono:

I have no diagnosed mental disorders.
I'm never really depressed and I'm pretty good at controlling anxiety, when I was younger I had some anxiety that would get kind of bad, but I think all these years of smoking large amounts of sativa at once gave me practice at controlling anxiety and now I have no problems with it :shrug:

Stopped being a little shit when dad smacked me hard enough, and I thank him for it.

Well actually any medical doctor can prescribe psychiatric medication it's just better to see a psychiatrist, not required. Or better still, a psychologist or therapist who typically don't have script privileges. Some locations may allow psychologists script privileges but it's not an area they focus on.

/IANAMental Health Professional... I just grew up with two of them.

As for me, I have a very minor autism spectrum disorder and a type two bipolar disorder.

Also someone said something about how almost anyone can be stretched into a mental health diagnosis - you're only half right about the motivation. It's true that a lot o doctors rely on medication too heavily but the explosion in mental health diagnoses isn't all about money, it's more the fact that we didn't previously understand mental health well enough to categorize and treat it effectively. Also most people refused to seek help because of the "crazy person" stigma attached to therapy. It's really only in the last fifty years or so that psychology has become a useful science. We're all crazy, it's just how you deal with it that matters. :grin:

It's not us man, down with current days medical studies, they fail! Believe in yourself should be the only presciption, meh.

I took Concerta for a couple years but bailed on it because I like food too much and I was such a workaholic when I was prescribed these that I would literally choose working over lunch...

Now Cannabis cures all.  I rarely even take Ibuprofen or anything like that unless it's one of my "chronic" migraines.  No pun intended

Ive been told by my doc he cannot prescribe anything like risperidol or xanax long term because he does not specialize in mental health... therefore he would not prescribe shorterm without justification from a psych because that would be kinda pointless without correct evaluation,,
also this is just my experience im sure its not the same everywhere in the world./

Well yeah, that's the responsible thing to do on his part. Especially if he's in an area with a practicing psychiatrist or two. But it's not uncommon for GPs to feel like they're capable of overseeing a patient with a less serious diagnosis.

They won't tell you what you "have" because they dont want to label you as something.

Usually if someone thinks they "have" something, they will act like they do have it. And then it usually doesnt get better, and sometimes even gets worse.

There are a couple reasons off the top of my head why they might be reluctant to weigh in on that. They might just not feel comfortable making a categorical diagnosis yet, while the DSM is fairly mutable it does have at least one or two rigid requirements for making each diagnosis. They could just want to try to understand what you're thinking better before deciding if a diagnosis is appropriate.

They might also be worried that having a diagnosis could effect your way of thinking. "That's okay, I'm not supposed to be able to do that, I'm sick." isn't generally a healthy point of view. And even when you try not to it's tempting to blame things on a diagnosis and disassociate the action from yourself. (Edit: err, yeah, what Mr Kite said :wink: )

To everyone in this thread:
A good psychiatrist wont tell you what you have unless you specifically ask.




:thumbup: True story.



Yeah that is true in my experience also...
and even then they never gave a straight answer
they like to keep you in limbo for some reason
I hate the mind games they "try" to play with you...



They won't tell you what you "have" because they dont want to label you as something.

Usually if someone thinks they "have" something, they will act like they do have it. And then it usually doesnt get better, and sometimes even gets worse.



I do have anxiety... that is real, I just needed a confirmation for a script,
she did in fact say she believes I have bipolar fairly quick, but I had to ask and it wasnt set in stone... (which is understandable due to the reason you said)... but what the hell other reason was I there for besides to get a diagnosis?

It may be true but no seroquel (which she prescribe under the diagnosis bipolar depression) or any antipsychotic shit like that is going to fix that like weed or a benzo could calm down the nerves and thats from experience in taking those damn hell pills...
I was pretty much just a rat in an experiment to her.
she would quickly write out a script for any of a list of antipsychs I chose I wanted to take:lol: but not a bonzo.
and those messed me up more than any Kpin did.

They are for sure diagnosing you, but they might not say what you have. She gave you medicine right? So she has made a diagnosis.

Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that is a sedative in higher doses acting as a deleriant, its in a bunch of OTC drugs that ive seen kids eat like candy to trip out.

What dose of the presciption atrop/hyosc do you take for that... those are some extremely powerful drugs. I dont think its possible to get any higher than you could off those...

You know about Datura right?
one of the main plants where those alkaloids come from...
:highasfuck:
Fucking completely insane experience.
It goes beyond tripping.



I am not talking about Diphenydramine I am talking about diphenoxylate, google it!  :biggrin:
and Yes I am very aware of datura. The dose is like 0.125mg or something.

Its a waste of my damn time,
she doesnt even really know what these meds are doing in the brain fully and she gave me a script like the second time I saw her, then changes it a few weeks after because whatever reason... and I went along with it just to see, but at least tell me why you are giving me these scripts
Ive realized they dont know what the hell is going on at least any one that ive been to,
those pills made Everything worse and she refused to give me even a low dose of Kpin which I know already helped.

-now this was years ago and I only went cuz my doctor was bitching that I was smokin weed n shit to help calm down (which it did for the most part) so he sent to a psych... :nonono: now if smokin a joint wasnt such a horrible devilish thing to some people, none of that would have happened.

people are people/ people are different/ everybody is fucked up in some way/ woopdeedoo! Im done with that shit. Ill self medicate thank you very much.

:rofl:
I yelled at her to take me off everything and Im done with her and all these people trying to say theres something wrong with me and weed is not going to help anything and only pills will help and she called an ambulance and they threw me in a psychiatric facility for like a month or so,
Total One flew over the cuckoos nest experience except without the elctro shock and lobotomy's lol,
if you havent heard of that story, you should check it out because its a totally real experience.

So I stay as far away from them as possible cuz that shit was not cool at all. Its like worse than jail in some ways imo.
once you get in the systems loop its an eternity before you get out, it makes you fucked up if your not already.
I didnt need that shit, I wasnt crazy I was fine before I was told to go to these people instead of resorting to myself to help any manic type phases that I would go through
But they feed you moar pills and Room me with some dood that couldnt sleep with the lights off because there were wolves in the corner, or sitting in the corner for hours at night saying hes going to kill me...
fuckin crazy shit.
:nonono::facepalm::nonono::facepalm:
Thats over now, and I wont even go near a conselour anymore.
I trusted them and they ruined me for that while.
Fuck the system.
as soon as I was out and off the pills and all that bullshit I was content with my life and need no more people telling me whats what.
Im fine with my consistent weed shmoakadge.
only then will I :feelsgoodman:

:lol:I wish I could throw her in that damn hell hole.

I have moar crazy lol stories of the people in there
the one guy I was roomed with just before I left stayed up all night stealing all the liquids in the facility he could get like shampoo, condition, toothpaste... etc he would mix them together and smear it in a certain way all over the walls everywhere saying that when the sun comes up in the morning it would shine through the window and light the mixture on fire so the place would get burned down so we could get out.

I was:rofl:

If you didnt eat the pills they gave you you were not allowed to leave your room at all for the day, just sit there with a blank room and a caged window.
they didnt even have containers for anything like soap n stuff/ no pencils or notebooks, or anything at all because people would try to kill themselves or hurt other people with the edges of stuff...
people would be freaking out all the time and they would just tackle them down strap them up lock them in a room and make them take 2mg's ativan every couple hours till they stopped...
they never tell you when or if your getting out of there until the day it happens
I did not deserve what I went through.
Im far over it now and just laugh my ass off sharing stories and warning people for all to hear that are pretty much setting themselves up for that so they can see it coming and prevent going through that...
it all did nothing what so ever
All because they thought they knew what was best for me.

That is some shit Doc. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is one of my all time favorite books.

I'm glad you made it out of there with yourself intact and without being a pharm zombie.

My ex's dad went into a facility in the 70's because they thought something was wrong with him (In truth he had been dosed with a shot glass of liquid LSD at a party :nonono:)

He endured shock therapy as well as being drugged his whole young adult life. The guy he is today reflects it I think.

I think we really hit on something with the use of LSD for therapy in the 60's, and it's depressing in itself that our government made the move to make yet another one of the most beautiful medicines known to man illegal.

Psychology/Psychiatry has been off track IMO, and people are suffering as a result. So much for helping the sick and making this world a better place to live.

Okay.
I don't take atropine or hyoscyamine everyday.
Diphen/Atrop, which is that opiate and atropine, is something you take when you have lots of diahrea and you take 2 to start and one more with every bowel movement.
Hysocamine you just take when you feel you need it, every few hours.

niteowl,
I finished reading your journal entry My Path. I found it very interesting and helpful to me and have a few questions.
One of which is, what kind of meditation did you practice?
by the way, peace and love to you and I hope everything works out great for you! :hug:

thugh I am of the opinion that over-diagnoses is a very eal issue in psychiatric medicine, there is also the fact that our understanding of the brain and how it chemically functions has increased tenfold in as many years. 

So of course new conditions are going to be diagnosed and better treatment developed.  The same goes for any physiological dysfunction

Nothing organized or taught in any way.

I just took the basic idea of meditating and went with it.

Social anxiety can be a crippling anxiety disorder, medication helps the people who have it to the extreme. Although I do agree that doctors are prescribing the wrong people medicine.

Also, I'm diagnosed with ADD but I dont think I have it...

I've done the same sort of form before and I really dig it too. Very deep meditation. How do you intertwine the meditation with your life or learn from the experience?

I mainly use meditation now to help relax and maintain focus.

I don't use that posted method much anymore TBH

I can meditate during a drive into town or while sitting at the computer :laugh:

Meditating is mainly a state of mind I try to maintain
I only 'consciously meditate' when Im in an anxious/agitated state now

I'm fucking nuts too. I think most adults are. Whatever. I have crippling fucking anxiety. And then I get too drunk to overcompensate for my anxiety and I wake up hungover. I smoke weed to self medicate what is probably depression, but if you don't have these problems you're not fucking paying attention.

It blows that the world is fucked up and there's nothing we can do about it. So we do drugs to cope. People who don't are in denial, self obsessed or too dumb to know better. Such is life.

Pills will not heal you from an unhealthy environment . I was locked in a psych ward told I was crazy and was drugged .told them they were the crazy ones and that I was a healer .experiencing that really tought me a lot.really when it comes down to it its your thoughts that create your reality but ultamatly come from the enviornment and all these ideas of ADD PTSD are just another bad idea going further away from reality and not addressing the core problem .now growing some true organics outdoors is healing the earth and in return healing you lol.

How do you guys think meditatation and Kratom go together? I had a great experience meditating on 10g Bali yesterday, way better than any of my sober attemts meditating ever, and was asking myself if I did this on the regular if it might have an impact on my sober life making me more chill.

His most striking stat, which comes from a study that cited the National Center for Health Statistics, is that of the 120,000 gun-related deaths between 2001 to 2010 in the US, fewer than 5% were caused by people with mental illness.

Mental illness takes hold of almost one in five American adults. In 2013, nearly 44 million adults were diagnosed with a mental illness, including 10 million with a serious mental illness, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health.
