Who's ever had to deal with your run-of-the-mill psychiatrist knows this is true. They guess dosages, a dash of lexapro, a smidgeon of zyprexa, a pinch of xanax and let's see if the desired effects are there. Oh and remember that there's been no conclusive evidence about any permanent side effects like sexual dysfunction and penile atrophy /s.
My father's psychiatrist even did a reset protocol, where she cut all medication for a few days and started over with new meds, she just didn't have a clue at what was happening.
- DantesKite 5y agoMost psychiatric drugs should be banned. They're far too dangerous and have destroyed many lives.

The withdrawal symptoms from that are awful. Some psychiatrist don't seem to think that the meds they prescribe can have withdrawal symptoms when you stop.
