Hey everyone. I am reaching out for support.
I have been chatting on here, respectfully and happily.
Yesterday I tweeted that there are many narcissists/psychopaths/predators in the psychiatric and psychology community based on my PhD research.
The responses from mental health professionals have been nothing short of abusive. I feel judged, character-assassinated, misunderstood, humiliated, disrespected. I feel physically sick.
I am stunned at the maliciousness and demeaning nature of the group bullying from mental health professionals. I am really, really distressed.
Have a look at all the retweet comments on the post below.
For any psychiatrists and psychologists who might like to actually read my work before further attacking me, here is a link…
I replied:
If you ever needed the equivalent or better (and without the wait) of a peer review of your work, it was just handed you on a silver platter!
So, well done for being over the target, that’s when you cop the flack! You stand with giants in the field who tried to clean it up..
…Dr Peter Breggin and Dr Thomas Szasz being two that come to mind.
As to immediate help for you personally, take a walk and look at things till you feel better. The only power anti-social personalities have is the power to enturbulate. Disempower them!
