Prescribed Harm

29 Jul

My God do I sound like a broken record

What does it take for me to have my freedom?

People making decisions for me at 41 seriously angers me

When everyone around me is telling me to remain calm

The wrath is blue, red, green and purple

The anger is in no way a symptom

At what point does somebody else’s opinion lead over my own?

When protesting something like weapons and war naked once

Maybe I should have made the protest more clear

What are you focusing on?

Prescribed Harm and Anti Psychiatry is a growing movement

With the likes of James Davies, Richard P. Bentall and Joanna Moncrieff

What does it take to highlight the system is failing the patients?

A patient having been sectioned from the age of twelve

A patient who has self harm marks all over her face and body

Crying out for someone to talk to

Yet all they want to do is medicate her

And that is not what she wants, screams and violently abhors it 

She is only 21 years of age

Is in care with her two year old child having been taken away from her

Another girl going to A&E due to self harming with a razor

I or they haven’t been offered any time with the psychologist

The absence of any alternative is blatant and desolated 

I was medicated at the age of 17 having not slept for eight days

What does it take to take on Big Pharma and win?

When will they and the FDA take responsibility for their crimes?

The damage done is costing the NHS so much more in the long run

Instead of early intervention of therapy and healing which is so desperately needed

Which Princess Catherine champions

How do I lead when they won’t interview me?

What does it take for my voice to be heard?

What are you all so afraid of?

The discrimination, stigma, the unknown?

Lose the fear, wipe away the absence of a tear

Fight with all of your might

And write with never ending plight until

You are listened to and your voice is heard

As you are not alone

And can speak for the patients with articulation and composure

Lead as you always do and always have done

Find your fellow patients who align with your thinking

No, I am not a doctor and do not have a medical degree

But I would like you to take what you prescribe for one month

Section yourself for the same period of time

And actually put yourself in the shoes of the vulnerable patients

You are so clearly not treating in any way

Just endlessly prescribing harm

And creating ill health

What has the western model of medicine really come to?

A list of side effects

Why is there such a lack of knowledge when it comes to nutrition?

Why is the focus on something that is so clearly flawed?

The list of side effects are right in front of you

Why as a doctor would you therefore prescribe without treating your patients?

So you are striking due to pay?

Are you even doctors?

Do you, ‘First Do No Harm’?

Question yourselves, challenge yourselves

You might have a medical degree under your belt 

But that does not make you a good doctor

It means you can retain information amongst other practices

Involved in getting your degree

I congratulate you on getting it

But where would you be without your nurses?

Seriously, how on earth would you cope?

If you are not in the field of psychiatry

Do you not think you have a moral duty as a doctor to get involved?

When you know it simply isn’t right?

Please do get involved

And help me change this dire system

Because we are talking about our youth

A generation in crisis, a mental health system in crisis

I do not and never will think medication is the answer

Long term, alternatives are cheaper

I have been prescribed since the age of 17:

Olanzapine, Risperidone, Abilify, Lamotrigine, Paliperidone, Procyclidine, Lurasidone, Haloperidol, Paliperidone again

With a list of side effects as long as my arm

Having been taken off Paliperidone in 2017 due to Prolactin levels being 2123 ng/mL (normal range 102-496 ng/mL) and then prescribed it again in 2025

How wrong could it go? How negligent could they be?
They do not even see me, they just prescribe

And you wonder why I do not think they are doctors

What happened to not prescribing what you are not willing to take?

What happened to doctors actually treating patients?

What happened to our health?

Overweight bodies riddled with serious trauma that needs addressing

When the system itself is causing severe trauma

And you ask me to stay calm

When all I want to do is scream 

I have been wrongfully sectioned from 1.5.25

Put on a section 135 due to walking down the street naked

And a past life theory of Mary Magdalene

When there were no grounds to section me on 1.5.25

I was of sound mind, sane, composed and articulate to a concerning degree

Ask the Police, please do involve the police

What do I do on this Holy Grail if you will not join forces and help me?

Afraid to follow the leader?

When the leader strides through with assertion 

So used to following the crowd

I will if you will mentality

It is something that needs all of your attention

For your children, their friends and your fellow human beings

Turning a blind eye

Is like looking at starvation and walking away

I’m alright Jack because it’s not affecting me

When does one take responsibility for something that clearly isn’t right

Or just!

JUSTICE MATTERS

Rainbow Prophecy Warriors exist around the world

Get involved

No need for likes but attention and engagement, yes please

I need all of the help I can get!

Protest, march, gather together and always know

Nothing changes without the likes of Rosa Parks

So be HER!
