Hi Mystery,
Yes, the suffering and misdiagnosis from mental illness all the way to these pathogen based infections causing what they call auto-immune saying our bodie's attacking itself, when in fact symptoms are caused byinfection etc and bugs......
.....the misdiagnosis is so completely mainstream. You have been thru much to much. My heart goes out to you and everyone else that has had to blindly find their way to get answers. Being led on the wrong roads by supposed "highly educated." We're here, were getting healthy!! And what a way to learn.
15 years is too long. And many, like you, like me, we realize in hindsight that we've had the bugs a long time. I'm sorry. And I understand. We understand.
Email me and I'll give you the info you need that can help you get ahead with looking into a case. The attorney and doc expert witness used that "win" many cases period against big pharma and docs, know what we know about
benzos. They've both uncovered much of the hidden clinical trial info on some of the benzos. If you google attorney Michael Mosher in Texas and Dr. Peter Breggin they work together a lot when they go at the pharma co's and docs. And win. Contrary to what people think, people do get UN-diagnosed. Therefore a disorder or condition written down is proven false, if they were prescribed thru a shrink. A condition etc, can be then attributed to other factors as to why a person behaved a certain way etc. Tolerance not being recognized by the prescriber, did hold weight for one person to win.
A woman that sued her doc used Mosher, and had been on Ativan.
I understand your paragraph 2. I'm on disability for the "physicality of my head and body symptoms" and being sick physically the first year coming off the drug. I had a med research doctor at UBC that and teaches about
meds, acknowledges side effects from some, and has a non pharma group that writes about
efficacy of drugs that is manipulated on some meds by the big pharma, the power of marketing from big pharma, and how this affects mainstream prescribing. He confirmed many get physical side effects from being on benzos and upon discontinuation.
I got lucky so mine has nothing to do with psychological/disorders, nothing like that on my form. It's classified as an iatrogenic illness - cns & brain trauma injury. (All of which broke my immune and started this deal for me.) I am shocked I got disability, I found the right research doc. I HATE the many like yourself have to say, you have mental illness ONLY because mainstream dropped the ball, not honoring pathogen causatives.
It's no way to live regardless, I can't wait to get healthy, get off disability and get my life back!! The socio-economic hits for many of us are simply..........hard to put into words.
I understand the losses you've been thru as well. I'm very sorry about
your mom. And her scenario, THAT is accepted thru our system and familiar to the general public; so you get no support or understanding as a result of it. Yes, this can be insidious and is much of the time. I wish you had more familial support and again, this a very real part of both of these deals which separates and isolates people due to all the hidden info so families listen to the doctors, not the "victoms". I have a great deal of empathy for you. I quite simply do.
I no longer post on benzo forums but have members contact me because of my posts there.
I'm a horse girl too. We didn't have the money to go as far as you did. I'll bet you'd love to get back at that. Many, many of the warmblood breeds are simply amazing animals. So beautiful and poetry in motion. 2 world championships? You gave me goosebumps. Growing up in Canada, I grew up watching Ian Miller on Big Ben. Now and then I still watch eventing on TV Good for you! You must of been one heck, one heck of an Equestrian! You still are with your resume. No forgetting how to do that.
I can't wait for you to one day, get back at it. xoxoxoxo
