My Psychiatric Nurse came today

He's a wonderful humanitarian and I have only praise for him. But even he thinks that with the click of a finger you should suddenly be well again. Put on a grin. Race around like a "Blue Arse" and pretend that life is "Wonderful" even though everyone condescends and mocks. Life is not fair but I would hazard a guess that most psychiatric patients are here only because they are too cowardly to commit suicide and not because they actually "WANT" to be here. I think if you gave Psychiatric Patients the option of Euthanasia there would be a very long Que and perhaps we might be forced to address the reasons why psychiatric patients were lining up for an OUT!
As it is we judge them and condemn them and tolerate them in Society only in as much as it proves to be a cost cutting exercise to keep them OUT of Asylum. Psychiatrists have license to pour any amount of poisonous drugs into their patients and are seldom pulled up by the law unless it actually KILLS them. The same Psychiatrist that said "We take Suicide very seriously" would not offer more than a "Grunt" when I said hello when in Hospital if I wasn't in Consultation. They know I'm MAD and I know I'm mad and the bush telegraph works so well that I was almost denied the opportunity of staying at the Cancer Lodge because I'm notoriously despised and yet I'm shoved out into the community to drive my poor guileless partner mad with my Depression and Insanity. I feel BURIED ALIVE and yet Euthanasia is NOT an Option. HELL started for me with my first breakdown and won't end until I die and yet people can't understand Suicide and won't allow Euthanasia.
