Re: Are You “Psychologically Competent” to Own a Weapon?
I may ruffle some feathers here and maybe even sound like a Scientologist in the process (I am most decidedly NOT), but the mental health industry is fraught with corruption, abuse, and incompetence. Psychiatrists have the highest suicide rate of any advanced profession, and they prescribe "modern" anti-depressants like Pez regardless of whether or not they may be misdiagnosing someone. Talk therapy used to be the gateway to healing the mentally ill, and now it's these SSRI pills that by their manufacturers' own admission can aggravate suicidal tendencies and psychosis. I have lost a couple of friends to suicide who complained to me that these medications were making them feel worse. When I urged them to see the doctor regarding a tapering program, they both told me that the doctor said to keep taking them, prescribed even more, and advised them it would just take time to work...and then threw something like Xanax or Klonopin into the mix.
