Hi all,
I'm new to this forum. I'd like to introduce myself. I'm 40 years of age, female. My interests include music (any genre), reading a great novel, watching comedy, Restuaranting, and learning new things. I suffer from depression and anxiety. Depression feels very lonely for me. I'd like to reach out for some support. Thank you.

Hey monkey_magic,
They switched my antidepressants and drugged me without my knowledge. That's a 5-year imprisonment term and they shouldn't be immune from this penalty. They didn't tell me of the 'diagnosis' because it was bogus. I rang up the hospital to find out and they never told me. They kept coming around to my place of residence just to harass me. That was pretty much it. No care or treatment was given. I later found out that my medical records were forged at a local doctor's clinic. My data at a pharmacy was compromised to create a 'psychological history'. I still don't know to this day, why they even came to me. They will not release my medical record. They damaged my property and claimed a police officer was involved. There was no ambulance nor officers involved. They hacked into my devices and accounts. They tried to get me on the NDIS. I reported all of these. No investigation was undertaken. I was never on a compulsory order for anything. I got set-up by my family and the organisation.
I'm sorry to hear what you went through. It is disturbing. For me, it was the most fearful experience of my life. They threatened to take me to hospital and "shove pills down my throat" if I didn't comply with them. No blood tests were taken, no cat scans either. They forced me to talk about irrelevant things that I didn't want to talk about. They humiliated me and made me cry. There was no diagnosis. They made it up. My mother said that I deserved it. We're generally not being heard because of the inequality in the balance of power. This is wrong. Our voices should be heard.
It's tough, I know and they do hurt people. I didn't know the extent until I experienced it for myself. They cause more harm and damage to people and, to people with pre-existing disorders such as major depression. I will try to advocate against their practices, it's unfair. Please reach out whenever you feel it's too much and I'll do the same. xx

now to you blueberry: apparently the psychologist my gp has referred to is excellent as I googled her and despite her not having a website like with some how they list their qualifications ect ect ect she does have some really good reviews but can you really trust the reviews on google I’m not to sure you can. But I got a really excellent gp who I’ve been a patient of at the practice of for at least 10 years so she knows me very well. And if there’s anything that my gp she would question or she didn’t think was right she would be right on it and sort it out that I know or would try stopping it. And if say the psychologist referred me to a psychiatrist and they wanted wanted to prescribe me something that she didn’t agree with or anything like that she would let them know and I trust my gp’s option fully as she’s never done wrong by me and some things she’s asked for my opinion on what I want to do or happen which I think that’s great and very very rare for a gp to do.

Hey mocha delight,
You're blessed to have someone like that. I would need to trust one first in order to build up the relation with one. I just need the courage to go see one. Eventually, I'm going to have to. This will take some time though.
Thanks for checking in. I hope you're enjoying your evening xx

Sending U strength at this time. I've read more of your story on other threads but thought I'd post on yours.
I have felt like you do and it's destabilizing.
I also want justice but don't know if I'll get it. It's great that you've got support here and can lean on us.
You don't have to do this alone. I too felt alone until I found so many others going through similar issues. I found some support groups on FB and have personally messaged others going through the same thing with mental health. It really validated my experience. I hope you too feel validated. It's very real. I've grappled with the injustice myself.
You are such a survivor because here you are gathering evidence and speaking up. It helps me too knowing others are fighting back. X
