[TW: Psychiatric medication, use of the ableist C-slur]

I have problems with this because of the radical views of psychiatry.

Sadly saying mental illness are physical is the argument used to force or coerce people to take dangerous drugs they don’t want or don’t need and not providing any other kind of care, not giving necessary information or alternatives to medication, framing mental illness as physical illness, the current view of main psychiatry, is very dangerous and I was forced on drugs that harmed me and I didn’t want because of it.
