Having fought the death of my career and facing all the negative voices and idiot questions about my current occupation , I’ve been forced to deal with the past again with my mother. My mother has been diagnosed with an under active thyroid. I calculated that her thyroid could not be working to the tune of as much as 80 %. This would explain her desperate behavior. We subjected my poor mother to the psychiatric industry and she received her due label because , you know , psychiatrists are God. My mother tried to take her own life about a year and a half ago and the stupid psychiatrist saw it fit to give my mother a cancer test because of her color. Instead of testing her thyroid. And this thing , drives a 1.2 million rand Mercedes. She didn’t listen to my mother when she pleaded with her to give her something for her constipation. Instead four days later I had to rush my mother to hospital because she needed an emergency procedure to relieve her of her constipation. My mother had stomach pains for 8 hours with no body listening to her. And all this could have been avoided but she treated my mother as if she were a school principal .
Anyway back to the point. My mother was afraid of said psychiatrist so I took her to another. This one gave her three heavy hitting drugs viz. prozac , clopixol and purata. Is he insane ? and all this because my mother needed a motivation for continued chronic medication from the medical aid ( another bunch of idiots ) . My mother reacted to the prozac and so I placed her on her previous medication for a month. After that month my mother looked like death warmed up, literally ! This stupid psychiatrist gave my mother a speech about giving her problems to God. This in and of itself isn’t bad but coming from a person who thinks he’s God is not good.
Why didn’t any of these baboons note that the real reason why my mother is complaining about constipation is because she’s really constipated. The cure isn’t to give my mother movicol – a type of laxitive – but to diagnose her with an underactive thyroid. So they send my mother home with a few more drugs and a few more labels.
It was only when I grabbed the bull by the horns and started investigating myself that I came to the conclusion that my mother is not psychotic but suffering from an under active thyroid. In the first week of her being booked into a mental clinic they only sent someone to speak to her after one week. This is a complete botch up and I am thinking of the kind of action I need to take so that these bastards have a hard time practicing.
I can safely say if it wasn’t for me my mother would be dead now , because I’ve wrestled her condition for two years now . And then they think that booking my mother into an asylum is going to make her better. My official opinion is that psychiatrists suck ! they wrecked my career also with a misdiagnosed thyroid issue and sent me home with a bunch of labels.
