Mary Maddox , Ireland : survivor of psychiatric abuse

I was 52 when I finally managed to become free from prescription, psychotropic drugs. I was on lithium, Sermontil and Largactil very longterm. I was on tons of psychotropic drugs before then. Like most people labelled by psychiatry, I was a guinea pig. Guinea pigs or any other animals should not the treated this way either. I know other people labelled by psychiatry have had even more horrific journeys. I share mine because most of them are kept hidden. I also know that FaceBook and many other powerful media platforms don’t help but In spite of this I do find support and solidarity. It is better to do something no matter how little it may seem than nothing a all! This picture was taken at my 60th birthday party not long before our first grandchild, Lexie was born! She, Annalise and Harry have filled my life with joy. Thankfully I lived to be free to be part of their precious lives.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
