Lol, antipsychiatry is not to be against mental health services or against psychiatry but it is against how psychiatry works within capitalism, if you would take the time to read any book regarding the subject you would not be spreading FUD just because of what you think of the name (which often times when it comes to philosophy/psychology or other scientific terms the answer is not so obvious).
Besides this, no one is going to do that, and if someone would even manage to do that it would cost a fortune, and anyway Reddit server admins could bring it back in no time if they see it was taken down by force.
thansk for the reply. I think the attitude is still grossly misguided and will get people hurt, killed, or in severe distress without an internally acceptable solution. Think what you like, just as I will. and lets agree to disagree.
It’s not so much a matter of disagreeing. The fact that psychiatry as well as psychology is not about healing patients nowadays, or the fact that capitalism creates sick individuals to feed these people into the psychiatry meat grinder and does not address this as a political issue is something that’s you can’t argue. Antipsychiatry is not against people being medicated, but it is against creating psychological damaging material conditions, then trying to fix this with drugs while not improving the material conditions and also worsening it because of the price of the drugs and the consult with the specialist.
If there are people in that community advocating against the use of medication for the sake of it, you should report the community because that’s not what the subject is about.
All that aside these people are brigading me and I feel like they won’t stop til I hurt myself. Disagreements aside, seeking to harm others is wrong, yes?
Sure, that’s why I said that last thing. The community should be about something, but with Reddit one never knows, it could end up being whatever else. If they’re harassing you that’s bullshit, but that’s not what anti psychiatry is about, you should report those people to either the sub’s mods or Reddit’s mods.
