Its been a while since I took my last Abilify. I feel great. Not "manic" great, just...human. I can think more clearly. My eyes are brighter. The thoughts that the neuroleptic were holding back about my painful past, especially the abuse I received at the hands of many "mental health professionals." I can hanle it though. Its cool.
I don't want to sound all angry and anti-psychiatry, but there's a lot of abusive BS that goes on in the name of "mental health," and I think I'm just about done. I've said this before, I know; I guess we'll just have to see how this goes. I'm praying for the strength to just carry on without the (surprisingly dulling) tranquilizer. I hate being drugged up into docility, patted on the head, and being told "good patient. Now take your pills every single day."
My brain is fried all to hell anyway, so I figure that by now, whatever could have been done, has been done. Time to cut the BS and just live. Unfortunately, I'll still have to play the mental patient game--keep up with appointments so I can stay in vocational rehab. Oh well. At least this way the system will be working for me, not against me.
