I came across this very interesting video that it mind blowing! A few weeks ago I was watching a vid here in Canada... It's a young lawyer explaining a new Bill being past on natural products. He mentioned a company in Calgary Alt. that used natural products to treat bipolar and was helping alot of people. They felt better and did not want to go back to big pharma prescriptions. Some had even planned their suicide if they had to go back. Very sad but moving on..... I found this video however it's in french but the people talking are in english. The video is called The invention of Diseases The more and more I feel to get back to natural products in healing (no matter what it would be).

I know this may be a very touching subject for some, as some may have taken precriptions to help them. It may have indeed helped them. I have no intent to discredit anybody for their choice, but many of us have been labeled as DOP and told to seek help.
I often wondered myself... of course I'm depressed at times... why wouldn't I be... I'm suffering from morgellons! It's human nature to feel this way. All this being said... We have our good days and bad days and we have a place to talk to someone who's going through the same suffering.
So I'd like to share another similiar video just to inform you how the system works if you were to go down this path. On the other hand, it may help you.

I saw a private psychiatrist, my choice, I sort help myself and I was prepared to be labelled with whatever and I was prepared to take whatever pill if it meant I would feel better. I knew I wasn't well, I knew most of my issues were physical, however I had an open mind and was never too proud to say "this could be psychiatric"...I took the antidepressants and antipsychotics prior to the classic Morgellons symptoms. I believe the high dose Lexapro and Seroquel that was given to me free by my then Private Psychiatrist (working for the Mental Health Research Institute of Victoria back then) and I believe I was a "clinical trial" patient. I was also given Abilify for a brief period and this was before FDA said it could be given to patients. I was one very willing guinea pig because I wanted to be well because I knew there was something wrong with me. I am not a typical "DOP" patient because I was NOT resistant to treatment. The psychiatric drugs almost killed me. I am not poo pooing all psychiatric medication as these days I am on Endep antidepressant. This was MY choice and I asked my GP to prescribe to me. I would like to see each and every psychiatrist that prescribes psychiatric medication to FIRST try this drug on themselves. I suggest they have Depo and oral. Psychiatrists need to feel the hell these drugs will create in a person that doesn't need them. itchin

Thankyou itchin for replying... I wonder now that the CDC labeled us as dellusional..I'm hoping new people that get this don't think that something is wrong with them emotionally. It is rough the first year of having morgellons and you will get all kinds of emotions. When I first got this and went to my first dermatologist appt.. I was anxious, nervous and feeling a little depressed. He looked at me, didn't see anything and probably thought ....this person needs help . Well things have settled down and I'm feeling as normal as I can for having M. Time and understanding is what I needed, that's what helped me. ;D
