You really shouldn’t be trusting a degree mill NP or even a PA, MD, or DO who’s never actually worked in psychiatry for any significant length of time give you psychoactive drugs. This is how you find out you have the bipolar gene this whole time and end up psychotically log rolling down my unit hall covered in mayo and vomit because the guy in your bathroom mirror said if you don’t he’ll put it in your butt while you’re sleeping. Also these medications have some very real and dangerous side effects, even the non-narcotics! Lamictal can just cause your entire skin to fall off you if they increase it too quickly and clozaril can just make your body forget how to make white blood cells for a bit, except unlike the lamictal doing it at initiation, clozaril can just randomly fuck you at any time. I understand that not enough of these professionals are available due to inadequate med school seats but this is not the best solution to that problem.
