But this bloke looks at all the drugs and then works out what's best to do, and then she gets better and better and then when she is finished seeing him the drugs end up going up more and more and then start the anxiety attacks and then I take her to see him and he does the same thing again and she gets better.

Mum was that bad we thought we would have to put her in the loony bin. she did not even know what we were saying and this doctor said the drugs she is on could kill a horse.

Some of these doctors must be just handing out pills like who knows what and people are as high as a kite off there rocker that they have lost the plot.

I think there is a underlying cause in such that can trigger this as well and they can't handle things, so it's like a switch that is triggered to set it off, they can not control it and some have worse anxiety than others.

A mate was prescribed the wrong drug once by a idiot doctor and he got that bad he thought he had lost the plot and he could not look at the front door for fear that he would walk out across the highway to the beach and get run over for sure he said and he went to a mental health woman and he said she was just a joke.

they are a joke well all of the psychiatrists ive been appointed to through government funding, which is a good reason to just leave that point there as beggars cant be choosers right? but 20mins every second month to prescribe me drugs just wasn't what i (ill be so cocky to say most of us) need to keep some hope in moving forward. ill admit that , as you mentioned about your mother, being doped up seemingly killed the suffering inside , or should i say masked the suffering, but the point here is THIS IS THE ONLY WAY, VENTING WITH THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY ASKING THOSE WHO DONT TO PLEASE TRY, BECAUSE THEY JUST DONT REALISE HOW MUCH A SINGLE WORD CAN TRIGGER AND DANGERS THAT COME WITH TRIGGERS, IF YOU ARE IN PUBLIC AND SEE A PERSON HAVING A "PSYCHO" EITHER LET THEM BE OR ASK IF THERE IS ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP, BUT GETTING ON YOUR HIGH HORSE AND ADDING INSULT TO INJURY BY SAYING SOMETHING NEGATIVE OR AGGRESSIVE TO A MENTALLY ILL PERSON, MEANS YOU ARE EITHER, LIKE MOST, IGNORANT OR PSYCHOPATHIC YOURSELF OR A VERY GOOD FIGHTER WHICH PUTS IN THE PRIOR CATORGORY, I THINK SO, AS IT IS ALWAYS ONLY MY OPINION I SPEAK OF. CALMING A SITUATION BY REMOVING A THREAT AND OFFERING A BACKDOOR (METAPHOR OR NOT) IS THE PLACE TO START IF YOU WISH TO HELP, AGAIN MY OPINION I AM NOT PROFESSIONAL BUT I KNOW WHAT 50 YEARS OF ANXIETY HAS DONE TO ME. TALK PEOPLE TALK TO THE PERSON YOU CONNECT WITH AT THE TIME AS THEY TOO WILL HAVE AND NEED TIME TO VENT AND MAY NOT BE THERE FOR YOU ALL THE TIME, SO DONT EXPECT ANYTHING FROM ANYONE AND THAT RIDS ONE TRIGGER TO START WITH. ok caps lock off , breathing in through thev nose out through the mouth, ahhh .

It's nothing people say to her that sets it off, people can be as nasty as they like to her and it will not bother my mum and she will just disregard them. but it's the amount of drugs that she is on that makes her not know where she is at and that brings it on.
She has had freak out days that I remember when I was a kid, I think it had to do with being a little kid in the war and walking around over dead body's every where and money problems could bring it on, I think when my dad would get ripped off badly or others went bankrupt on him and that happened a lot.

I try to understand people but they will never open right up and let you know the full truth, because they think you will not understand or some other crap.
I know a few people through my years who have problems and I do listen to them and try to understand.

I have a mate that I always gave him leeway because I understand him and other mates of mine hate him and say don't bring that c--t around us any more, he does get on my goat as well, but people should try to be understanding.

Another mate got on drugs and all the problems with him because of that and he said that the drugs the gov gave him were the worst, so he would not take them because they freaked him right out and I could go on about all that.

Another mate up the road was locked up in wally world twice and he is good to talk to about such things because he has been through it all, I learnt a lot from him.

The thing is that most people do not know anything about such things, I even had a deaf bloke come over to 30 of us having smoko, non of them had a clue what to do, I was the only one who knew how to talk to him and deal with him as to what he came over for.
