Mental health diagnoses: U.S

I am a client of psychiatrists, pharmacists, and the pharmaceutical industry. I was diagnosed with schizophrenia, which remains poorly understood in research. When searching online, there is no documentation on a cure, indicating that none exists. Therefore, doctors seem unable to offer solutions for alleviating this condition.

I cannot help but notice how the medical industry profits from treating vulnerable patients who have limited rights and hope for recovery. In the U.S., it appears common to quickly label individuals with mental illnesses as a way to undermine their experiences and credibility. Phrases like "oh, she's a psycho" are prevalent in everyday language, leading to furthr stigmatization of those diagnosed.

Why is this practice so widespread? The theory of the mind associated with schizophrenia is not well-researched for potential cures. It seems that the U.S., despite being relatively new as a country, has developed a medical system focused on financial gain from patients who are ill and ideally remain so to ensure ongoing business.

More doctors should speak out against this profit-driven industry and address how they exploit their power over sick individuals. Instead of offering hope for improvement or cure, the message often seems to be "take medication for life" while charging for it. I feel that my experiences and symptoms have not been adequately explained or understood by medical professionals.

Does the Bible mention mental illness as a disease Jesus cured? I'm unsure, but there is clearly a need for reform in how diagnoses are assigned and trusted relationships are misused to make money from patients until they die. This approach takes advantage of those who are already vulnerable.
