Can we talk about how psychiatry has a pattern of using treatments for mental illnesses and disorders that cause brain damage and then labeling the direct effects of that damage as "healing"

#antipsychiatry #antipsych #medical abuse #anti psych #text #my stuff #examples include: ECT/electroconvulsive therapy 'rewiring the brain' being seen as positive/healing despite causing memory problems #and other issues #but when disorders like depression rewire your brain it's labeled as brain damage. lmao #insulin shock treatment and lobotomies #forcibly drugging people until they have actual neurological damage #antipsychotics decreasing grey matter in patients who take them long term #mental health treatment being incredibly traumatic by nature #btw trauma can literally give you brain damage #and so on
