One month's stay in psychiatry means she is on medication, this is the fact, unfortunately. I hardly imagine a psychiatrist not giving medication to his patients having committed a suicidal act. I'm not an advocate of psychotropic drugs, but in any case, there is no drug having no side effects. The psychiatrists know that, and they follow their patients closely, it’s not difficult to do that if they are hospitalized. So, being carefully monitored by psychiatrists, I think Paris does not suffer much for the devastating effects of antidepressants. Psychiatrists should know the dose that suits each of their patients. I'm not very worried about, because Paris is surely treated by very good psychiatrists.
True. In the hospital the first thing they do is put you on the drug to "stabalize" you. Yes and the drugs do have side effects. Some of them get bad acne, some get shakes, some reaction time is dulled, some seem to be ok. I said this before, but this psychiatrist told me he takes the psychotropic drugs himself. He said he would have his dinner, then take the latest pill, and monitor his experience/behavior/emotions. He did this to see what effect it would have on his patients. I told this story to my class while I was in grad school, and some of the students felt the dr. was a drug addict because he was taking pills when he did not have a disorder. I guess it is a matter of perception. To me he was brave and showed he cared about his patients, but I think he forgot that the effects he might have may not be the same for others. However, I guess his general reaction to the drugs is the key, and maybe "most" of the patients would feel the way he did after they took the particular pill.
You are so right about the source issue. To me the most reliable source would be Debbie, but she only makes little comments and spend her time posting photos. All the other paid sources are suspect because their stories vary and contradict each other.
I am sadder about Paris' situation than the current trial. I just feel her situation was handled wrong from the beginning. I cannot get over the fact that she was hospitalized for a month and is now not in the loving care of a "family." Then Jermaine's comment make me feel there is some idea that her issues are not serious or important. In fact, even when Paris get's over this situation and is back in society again, I will still remember this as an injustice that could have been prevented. Even if Paris comes out later in life and say it was the best place for her, I will still see this as an injustice that could have been handled differently, if a child had loving parents.
Isn't it sad that Paris has a mom, several aunts/uncles, Diana Ross, plus the loving friends that the adults in her circle have, and no one was able to give this child a loving place to stay for some months? How could that be? No one could say, "my kids are now grown, so let her come to me and I will devote my time to her care." So I say shame on all the adults in that family, because they failed that child.
I remember as a child my dad took in a severe alcoholic with all his psychological problems to live in our home because his family kicked him out. You would hear this man screaming in the night when he got those crazy nightmares. The first time I heard this crazyness in the middle of the night, I was scared out of my wits. His hand was always shaking. My dad was not related to him but took him in. My dad also took in a teen boy who the family kicked out too, and interestingly enough the kid behaved at our house. It seems that we need a little more caring people around now.
(To be honest, I even felt sympathy to this man.)
