Guest guest Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I don't have many nightmares or dreams , since quitting ssris and the rest of the viruses/diseases in pill form. They were constant for 27 years of taking them though. Nobody is more sorry than I am, for being a part of the ugly mess. I am glad though , I learned how to finally deal with them , and know in some ways , how and what it is they do to control us. Even after getting away from them , on anti sites, they were still trying to get me to go Get Professional Help. Learning how to lie to psych , is a difficult task. The ability to double speak , double speak, and act like its not happening while the person is making you sick, is difficult if not impossible . Someone says well they are just dumb, someone else says, no way these are smart psychs. Then the ones who believe they help others, are so many. You realize, the worst trouble of getting through to the public, are those who believe psych is helping them , when it is hurting them terrible. Its the neutral of truth. The dox are a god send to the nuroleptic users, who are in terrible T/D and change their meds to ssris. Then the chemical blackmail . God doc please , don't put me back on nuroleptic , I want something a little less hurting. Problem is , the courts require the nuroleptic, and don't give a dam about the ssris in many cases. They want the corrections . Halal is a corrector, same as the other nuroleptics. Anti depressants, or ssris, or maos, are happy pills compared. So what happens is , the dox are worshiped for being miracle workers away from the correctors . When you feel as though psych has buried you alive from nurotoxins, or half your system is burning , while the other half is freezing, and the shaking is so bad, ssris are a very welcome feeling of good , compared. Later on though we all know the cost, so the psychs must continue to pull the switcharoo. They are playing us as suckers , with allergic Parkinson's adverse reactions. The psychs are toying with us , nothing more. Playing a human game of experimentation, and power using pills like cheese for rats. Addiction is their hook, comeon , the first ones free. Like the $100.00 dollar bottle of a 30 days supply of lipator. They hook you with the sample packs, then later , you are spending at least $1200.00 bucks a year. Whats needed to deal with that ? Another expensive addiction or possible surgery. How much can you spend per month? I could have made thousands of dollars selling the ssris I threw away on the illegal black market . I'm glad I didn't get anybody else hooked to them. If I took a nuroleptic , and it didn't cause me T/D no matter how much I took, and if ssris caused me terrible T/D the dox would never use nuroleptic on me because T/D is the disciplinary action. Ive seen it done too. A person isn't affected by nuroleptic so they change it so they are sick. You know , your experience in lock up , was done purposely to install fear in you. The courts love that. Its a better correction than prison. I was given valproic acid for stroke. the pain in my right brain was incredible, I begged the doc to give me something else. The med was increased. If I had said, " It makes me feel good, I would like more " the doc would have decreased the dose, or put me on something else. That's why they say, never tell the dox insulin makes you feel good, the DEA will not allow any injections to make anyone feel good. We must say , the insulin makes us feel normal. Psychs chemically torment for corrections. That is their job. The nightmares are an added attraction, they all love to hear you have . That way they get the " job well done " by the judges, same as the goons who beat us to death. The judge places the order, the dox execute that order by telling the goons to work us over. " You will correct on the meds, or we will give you shock, or lobotomy. If you still do not correct, we will keep you here for life, or just kill you , so you aren't a burden on your family. You have hurt their feelings enough. " I'm sure this is just one of the many sayings, the dox give us from their office while on the back wards of living hell. Hey, these are doctors, how can we say this about them. These are medicines , they are good , a boon to man kind. Ja right. Get in the box now please, we don't want to hurt you. You are going to be put to sleep now. Well you know you need it, now. GET IN THAT BOX, OR WE WILL RIP YOU APART. You know you need to go ...... you are sick........... You say NO !!! OK have it your way, we will hit you again and again and again until you say yes , then when you say yes, you will be hit over and over again and again, just in case. For the good of society and all concerned. Its your fault now GET IN THAT BOX. Yes its quite a living nightmare. Nightmares in sleep , are relief from hell in life. The dox know this too, so we are put on edge from meds that wont allow our rem sleep. ____ knows why so many commit suicide so very much. Peace to all of them, free from the living hell given by the courts, the dox and their support system. It isnt a sin to be weak in that system, being strong only attracts more abuse from psych, just to see how much we can stand, before we break. Where to break after that is a good question???? snicker Nobody knows but us too. Mental emotional and physical scars only an insane psych would poke prod and rip apart to see what we would do . One word that scares them more than anything else .

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Yup! you are not the first nor are you alone. It happened to me after the unit repeatedly fired. Having no way to know it was a malfunction at the time, I assumed the shocks were necessary and that the unit was unable to correct the heart problem. The later diagnosis was in conjunction with depression which is also not uncommon for our group. If you want specifics, or more details, email me directly at eagan@...

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Hi Lynn, This is my "specialty". I have had my AICD for 4+ years now. When I first got it after a sudden cardiac arrest I was dealing with the PTSD/Depression issues. After a year of no incidents and adjusting to the major changes in my life things got a little easier. Then I began to get my shocks and was in and out of the hospital every 3-4 months for about 2 years. Of course that kicked everything up a notch mentally. My last shocks were over 2 years ago now and the last incident included 10 shock in 15 minutes. After that I really hit the PTSD symptoms hard but I have to say that with time it will get better for you. I'm sure I never would have agreed with that in the past!!!

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Dear Lynn, What a wise person getting help. What you have been through is a harrowing experience to body, mind and soul.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 I can relate... I've had my ICD for 10 years. It unfortunately malfunctioned last summer and repeatedly fired inappropriately for 2 hours, with the first 7 shocks in 10 minutes. They've supposedly fixed it, but it's showing signs of the same problem again. But I'm assured any worry on my part is " just overreacting " . (I'd like some of whatever my docs are smoking...) Meanwhile I'm waiting for the thing to start going off again by mistake, and I'm back to sleeping with the lights on, a little agoraphobic, stuff like that... sigh. There's a lot of good articles on the Internet on why therapy is a good idea -- PTSD seems to be fairly common. The therapy is a good idea -- especially if the therapists understand about ICDs. I think it can really help a lot. Good luck -- let us know how you're doing. - Roxe > > Has anyone here gotten PTSD as a result of their medical experiences? > I've just been diagnosed with it and am entering therapy. > > Lynn S. > > ------ > Mama, homeschooler, writer, activist, spinner & knitter > http://www.siprelle.com > > NOTICE: The National Security Agency may have read this email without > warning, warrant, or notice. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Lynn What a terrible experience. I am so sorry you had to go through that. But you are taking care of yourself. I have suffered from depression before all of my heart problems surfaced. Been on meds for it for some time now. So far I have not had the experiences you have and if I did I am sure my meds for depression would have increased. Take care and here for you anytime Toni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 > But I'm assured > any worry on my part is " just overreacting " . (I'd like some of > whatever my docs are smoking...) Indeed! My doctors at least are taking it seriously; they're the ones who diagnosed the PTSD. The counselor I've got is also an RN, which is nice if only that I don't have to explain everything to her; she already knows what I'm talking about. The first appointment was harrowing. I didn't know I could cry that hard--I mean, WAILING. I was 16 days in hospital, mostly in the CICU, with a 3-day return trip a couple of weeks later when a blood clot formed on my new ICD leads. And in that time...well, you guys know what I went through, you've been through similar yourself. The worst was when I was moved from the CICU to the monitored floor against doctor's orders, I began having severe and different chest pain, I repeatedly called for help, and no one came. And then I died. That got their attentions, the bastards. They got to me within five seconds and had me back in 30 seconds, so I didn't suffer permanent damage. Except to my psyche, apparently. The downside of the counseling is that, 2 days later, I'm still wiped out. Limp dishrag. But I'm told it gets better...

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Boy do I relate to that.....it takes a while for the benefits of therapy to be realized but then one day you look at where you were before it and where you are now and see the change. A good therapist will tell you that what you are experiencing is normal for the process. Hang in there and keep talking on here. It helps!

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Roxe, I would not want to be in your shoes right now. I know how scary it can be. I am not sure how long you have been reading things on here but in the past people have discussed using a large magnet for these kinds of problems to stop the firings. I have yet to buy one myself but did consider it after the 10 shocks I had in a row over 2 years ago....mine was not even appropriate and wasn't the first time that I had an inappropriate shock. Do you live alone? I got to the point where I had a mini fridge and microwave in my room after my shocks so that when I was alone in the day I could stay in bed if my heart was acting up. The movement would set it off but if I stayed still it would clear up after a while. My meds needed to be changed in order to stop the a-fib symptoms at the time. Take care of yourself and talk here if you need to get support. I can relate... I've had my ICD for 10 years. It unfortunately malfunctioned last summer and repeatedly fired inappropriately for 2 hours, with the first 7 shocks in 10 minutes.
