My experience with mental health was actually the contrary.
I found I was actually being harassed and coerced over the need for mental care.
The need stemmed from my report the harassment to authority.
So to anyone who is considering therapy or seeking clarity over a mental health issue; also be aware of your rights.
You also have the right to disagree.
I just don't think people should be pushed or manipulated to get help when something like a lawyer would actually have been more helpful.

I actually feel the same way about my current situation. I used to see a psychotherapist for some years and when I got back home from abroad she just left me with a phrase: now you should find a psychiatrist and another psychotherapist.

That made me feel like I would have needed meds also during the past years when I received only her support, and the time abroad was only a waste of time.

I feel worthless today, I refuse to see a psychiatrist and they actually track anything I do anyway as I'm some sort of criminal or something. I don't find it fair and I don't know how to exercise my rights since I got no money either.
