Question by .: Why would a drug rehab center put a 16 year old boy on antidepressants and antipsychotics without?
diagnosing him with depression or any mental disorder, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder? They are administering these drugs to him for aggressiveness and behavioral problems. Since when have antipsychotics been used in adolescents for aggressive behavior? Is this ethical? Is this the 21st century version of electroshock therapy and lobotomy? Why is a drug rehab facility taking someone off of street drugs and putting him on pharmaceutical drugs?

Let’s forget about the moral issues here. I’m sure people who have drug addictions do this, but I’m wondering if anyone out there has had a valid medical condition where the pain is so overwhelming that they can’t function – and their regular doctor refuses to prescribe anything that helps.
Would you consider trying to find a doctor you knew would give you the meds without question?
I’m starting to understand why someone might do this. I have severe pelvic pain from endometriosis, PCOS and ovarian cysts. I’ve had multiple surgeries, but nothing even dulls the pain. I was having a severe headache (which is common during my cycle) and saw one of those urgent care doctors. He gave me 15 pills of this medicine, and after 10 years of constant suffering, I finally felt relief. I looked it up and ti was a narcotic though. My doc says I just have to live with the pain, but I don’t agree. I was taking 30 advil a day and still was in great pain. Anyone else out there feel the same way?
How do you convince a male doctor that your female problems are causing sever pain when he has no comprehension of what you’re going through?
I felt absolutely no side effect from this pain medicine, other than a little bit of dry mouth and dry eyes. It made me a little tired, but nothing tremendous. I didn’t feel loopy and don’t feel the need to take them needlessly. What’s the big deal with helping people stop feeling pain?
I’m 27 and want children. Hysterectomies are not proven to stop the endo – so I wouldn’t consider one anyway.
I feel like these jerky male docs think this pain is all in my head, but I’m so nauseated from the pain, on top of being completely immobile from it. I’ve tried breathing exercises and meditation just so I can get out of bed in the morning. My doc says my birth control will start working, I’ve taken them for 4 years with no help. He put me on 3 month cycles so now I have breakthrough bleeding for a good 6 weeks out of each cycle – meaning MORE pain. I’m starting to think there are no doctors who understand this.

Tom Gosinski, a former employee of the medical-aid charity Cindy McCain used as personal supplier of Percocet and Vicodin, is speaking out publicly for the first time.
…
He says he can’t buy the official McCain camp line that Cindy’s drug abuse was kept from her husband, he saw and heard too much for any of their stories to make sense — like the time Cindy was allegedly taken to the hospital after an overdose and John rushed in to berate the doctors and nurses there before moving Cindy to their secluded Sedona ranch. Then there were the Hensley family interventions and the fact that Cindy’s drug abuse came to be something of an open secret among employees of the charity.

Everyone always says AA meetings etc. They mean nothing to me because I don’t believe in God. I was in rehab for 3 months and that is all they preach out of too, is the “big book” AA. It totally turns me off, I drank every weekend on my passes away. I just wonder does anyone know of any way to quit an addiction without hawing to refer to God or a Higher Power or anything? There has to be a way. Help
This is not a religious question, so please if all you have to say is about God or something please refrain. I have nothing against other peoples beliefs, to each their own, I just dont personally believe, and never will so please don’t try to convert me, or call me the devil, or say I’m going to hell. I am very comfortable with my beliefs, and am quite content with them. I am not ignorant on religion either, I have read the bible”s” more than once. I did my research and have chosen not to believe. Thank you.

My mom has cirrhosis and diabetes related to alcoholism. She has now been sober for five years, but did not attend AA, or receive any special counseling.

My problem is that my mom lies to me and my brother about her medical problems. She lives alone and needs monitoring for low blood sugar (from the diabetes) and confusion and encephalopathy (from the cirrhosis). Despite that she is in some very real danger, and that we have had numerous discussions/ fights, she is once again hiding very serious symptoms.

Is there a specific mental health condition in which patients repeatedly lie about ONE SPECIFIC thing, despite how it negatively affects their lives?

In this case, my mother could suffer coma and even death. Also, I have cut her out of my life in the past, and threatened to do so again; she is very attached to me and does not want this.

So why does she keep lying?

I’m going to try to make this as short as possible. The very abridged version is:

My sons father was a crackhead (I didn’t know till after I got out of the relationship) and suicidal. While down in Florida he was in a rehab home and found out at 30 that he was adopted. This put him over the edge. 6 months later he swallowed too many pills, and OD’ed. That was 4 years ago today. There were so many secrets in the house that he grew up in that I feel were just steps taking him closer to his problems and I don’t want to have to secrets in my house. But I never told my son that his father killed himself, though he does know everything else, that his father was an addict and had attempted suicide before, taking too many pills killed him. He’s 11. Would you ever tell your child this truth or just let him put the pieces together, because he will one day. I just don’t want him being mad at me when he does.

Please no judgments about my choices or his father. Thank you very much.
Like I said, that was a vert abridge version. he didn’t attempt suicide until after he was put on antidepressents. There has been many studies done that shows the connection between these drugs and suicide in a lot of people.
He got the news from me the same day I got the news. I would never have kept that a secret. The secret is that his father committed suicide.

I have experienced both. A few years i was a drug and alcohol abuser. I didn’t do it every single day but it was on my mind constantly. When i get fully sober i replaced drugs and alcohol with pornograhy and massage parlors and other unhealth sexual activitys. I am now trying to kick those vices. It certainly feels like addiction. I have been nervous since i have stopped these activites. Its all my mind can think about. I have tired a thousand times to stop but i always go back. I don’t even know how to talk to women without thinking of sex. I truely need help. Last night i installed a porn filter on my computer and blocked certain channels on the tv. Has this helped anyone else who has been sexually addicted. Any tips for me???
