1950 to present antipsychotics whose severe side effects are written off as crazy talk.

I have taken an antipsychotic for insomnia at different times. Can you elaborate on what you're saying? It isn't clear to me. Severe side effects, however, have been extremely clear at different times. Are you saying those are downplayed to the point of gaslighting?

Today lack of insight or "anosognosia" was protested in massachusetts https://www.madinamerica.com/2023/08/fighting-outpatient-commitment-in-massachusetts/ September last year I was told by pro-perjury republican suffolk, new york judge I was not fit to decide. Whether to be assaulted with risperdal, haldol causing Nystagmus eye spasms blatantly against the Quran which northwell banned twice. Alaska Supreme Court acknowledges least restrictive (Olmstead) treatment must be tried first.

I never hallucinated nor self harmed and haven't defended my exes and dog for 3 years during no probable cause, sans investigation false arrests. For peacefully protesting the "delusion" I was invited 5 years ago twice on 90 Day Fiance by a Doomsday Preppers producer. Free charity 125 page lithography Google and 100 page quack Law books don't make me qualified, but a doctor silently passing by the hallway counts as an evaluation www.dropbox.com/sh/p4hbeqa7e74j4lk/AAAl2RN_pmlCDoeg9MXHVe4Ca?dl=0

thorazine, the first antipsychotic, was injected "in emergencies" of talking about fish, crickets, Jesus into an alabama senior citizen who felt safer in the worst state. nassau university medical center pharmacist said she was at the maximum dose but co-workers demanded increase. chemical restraint is illegal everywhere, these are not meant for falling asleep which "pacing" or benadryl, Ativan can help.

neuroleptic malignancy syndrome resulted in May 24, 2020 death perhaps a heart attack, multiple women there stopping menstruation, diabetes, sometimes did not cure the few who hallucinated; kidney, liver damage. Politely asking for FDA label printout and discussing experiences with peers gets your freedom of association revoked in contradiction of state patients' Bill of Rights. $25 billion/year False Claims Act defrauded from 25 million Americans.

The side effects have been well known for a long time. I can see pharma companies downplaying them, but in modern times the risks are well understood. Do you have an example?
