This is really what I have to say about the treatment in the old British asylums. The deal breaker for me was the horrendous side effects caused by the administering of medication by injection. I have tried to show what akathisia meant to me and others.
6. The Wikipedia definition of akathisia includes
reference to ‘inner restlessness’ which is manifested
in an inability to sit still or to remain motionless.
Derived from the Greek for ‘not to sit’ or ‘without
sitting’, akathisia is a ‘side effect’ of some typical
antipsychotic medications, particularly when given
by injection.
7. Get Well Soon :-
One thing for certain for some of
the patients in the old National
Health Service asylums in the
UK, was that
they weren’t about to get well
any time soon...
