Oceanside Treatment Center Recovery Resources, Inc They threw me out of Alcohol Rehab/Detox for refusing and speaking out against Psychiatric Medication as a lesson to the other clients. Internet
I went to this place for Alcohol Rehabilitation my drinking was way over the top, out of control ! I had been there 4 years ago and I wasnt paying attention but they have this quackery called "Dual Diagnosis" and they gave me some shrink label during the process of detoxification from alcohol and a drug called Xanax I had been getting for sleep from a doctor of psychiatry.
abdominal pains, aching, agoraphobia, anxiety, blurred vision, body vibrations, changes in perception, feeling of unreality, flu-like symptoms, hair loss, heart palpitations, insomnia, loss of balance, , nightmares, panic attacks, paranoia, persistent & unpleasant memories, severe headaches, shaking, short term memory loss, sound & light sensitivity, unusually sensitive, fear.
4 years ago these clowns gave me Zyprexa !
They had given me a psyciatric label of some sort during this process of withdrawal and wanted me to take dangerous shrink pills again.
look at this paste directly from there website:
Multiple diseases often co-exist in a single client. Co-existing disorders, commonly termed Dual Diagnosis, can be identified during the evaluation process. It is important to address any and all ailments that can cause difficulty for clients in treatment so that strong and permanent sobriety can be achieved and maintained.
Professional clinicians with experience in Dual Diagnosis at Oceanside Treatment Center will design treatment programs to address these conditions. For example, many clients present with both an alcohol and drug abuse problem; some clients may well have mental health issues that have been unaddressed and overshadowed by addiction. Specialized and personalized treatment modalities will be designed by experienced clinicians to identify and manage these issues during the clients' Alcohol and Drug Treatment program.
"Dual Diagnosis, can be identified during the evaluation process" They say on there site
During the process of drug and alcohol withdrawl ?
Look at just the xanax withdrawl symptoms ! I see half a dozen psyciatric labels in that list alone.
This is what is called disease mongering. "overshadowed by addiction"
They threw me out of ocean side treatment center for refusing pscyiatric drugs 3 weeks into my recovery. I told them I want sobriety not psyciatry. Im in the "Professional clinicians" office asking "why should I take this seraquel?" I hate the way it makes me feel. These professional clowns "stephen gumley" and lynda keep returning my question with a question in responce, That conversation diversion thing . I stood my ground and asked "what, if I dont take shrink pills I have to leave"? They said "med complience" , wait what ? We think you may have a chemical imbalace.
It would go againt everything I belive and put toxic shrink pills in my body and call it sobriety. I let them though me out
oceanside treatment center is a joke run by clowns . I didnt get a refund thats crazy.
Psychiatric disorders are not medical diseases. There are no lab tests, brain scans, X-rays or chemical imbalance tests that can verify any mental disorder is a physical condition. This is not to say that people do not get depressed, or that people cant experience emotional or mental duress, but psychiatry has repackaged these emotions and behaviors as disease in order to sell drugs. This is a brilliant marketing campaign, but it is not science.

Dual Diagnosis Disease ? Update by author
Disease mongering is a pejorative term for the practice of widening the diagnostic boundaries of illnesses, and promoting public awareness of such, in order to expand the markets for those who sell and deliver treatments, which may include pharmaceutical companies, physicians, and other professional or consumer organizations.

Psychiatric protection form.

There is no more fundamental human right than the right to bodily integrity. A hallmark of most legal systems is that innocent people are protected from anything happening to their own body without their consent. According to an article in the DePaul Journal of Health Care Law: "True consent to what happens to one's self is the informed exercise of choice, and that entails an opportunity to evaluate knowledgeably the options available and the risks attendant upon each."

To make this story more clear, 4 years ago they gave me and others Zyprexa "for anxiety" and I expirienced major Zobification and most of the side effects so I had the expirience of neuroleptic withdrawal syndrome when I quit that evil s**t.
When I went back in Dec 2010 after a relaps on alcohol. I wanted nothing to do with and had every right to refuse neuroleptics and any shrink drugs, I even wrote neuroleptics on my drug allergy list... the 1st day ! These clowns didn't think neuroleptic withdrawal syndrome is an allergy or the possibility of tardive dyskinisa was an important concern to me. "Med complience" and a chance to send a lesson to the others was more important.
1st post sloppy unfinnished but you get the idea , no go back and edit button on this thing.
Thrown out, no refund
