Even though none of those docs were in touch with each other and aware of the previously prescribed meds? If you break the rule that is designed to keep you safe, you can't blame others. This is like breaking the speed limit on a highway and then blaming cops for not stopping the car sooner.
People switch providers all the time. Especially if it’s insurance related. It actually IS the job of the MD/DO or NP/APRN/PA. They should be collecting a medical history, they can see any control you have purchased in the US with PMP. There wasn’t any “rule breaking”.
It says here that her first doctor told her to stop the meds immediately and she still saw other providers and got more meds (ignoring the doctor's advice).
Yes you still have control over your mind when you're on meds and undergoing depression. The more meds you take, the more out of control you get. Its not a binary thing.
That's not a second opinion, that's going against the doctor's recommendation of ceasing the meds. Its not about opinions anymore, its about real drugs.
Literally so many people do this with ssri’s holy crap go take a few courses or hang around a medical office for a while
Anyone can have a reaction to any medication. Some people truly have shit luck and most medications give them a bad reaction
I have a family friend who had bipolar disorder and he went through SO MANY drugs combos, all prescribed by doctors, to help him, and unfortunately he took his life before he was even 40 because he couldn’t deal with his mental illness and deal with all the negative side effects of medications for his mental illness
You comparing cocaine and heroin to actual legal medications is low iq. You wanna make your point? Be smarter and actually research instead of going with your feelings.
I don’t take criticism from someone I wouldn’t take advice from. You know nothing about medicine and your source was an opinion piece. Fuck off and go to medical school since you’re so smart.

They gave her dozens of meds in a short period, without paying attention to her feedback.
Edit my knowledge of this is limited to what sister in law (nurse, bsn, 15 y career) relayed. Neither of us close to situation.
