So people say, if you just complied with & worked with your psychiatrists, why would you have problems? And if you did, just file a complaint or even take them to court maybe?

Here's why that doesn't work. (a thread)

Suppose I just want note that I was noncompliant with medications removed from that hospital record. Well, that will be challenged by the ruling of human rights dept at mh ctr, which favored the psychiatrist's denial that she cold stopped meds.

That's only part of the fight.

Then I have to bring in this psychiatrist's poly-drugging of me for 3 years that led to worse bipolar symptoms, desires to self-harm, and greatly increased psych hospitalizations, as I continued to comply with her recommended treatments.

I'd have to go through documentation on all those records for all those incidents, which we all know contain more twisted notes about how difficult of a patient I was.

And it would rip at both my character and my soul.

And, I'd be largely fighting a statewide mental health system, beginning with my local mh ctr, under a community services board (CSB), which is under state dept of behavioral health, which is funded by SAMHSA.

Big, huge, complicated organizations for little me to be up against.

And, I'd be up against all kinds of official record notes like this⏬, so how would I come out? Probably not well on any level.
