"It is unacceptable that millions of people are victims of doctors irresponsibly prescribing meds and ruining lives. This is the modern day equivalent of committing someone to a mental institution."
The goal of the balto bunny project is to educate, support, and INSPIRE. Most doctors are reckless in prescribing anti-depressants, and it is not acceptable. Many many people have committed suicide, been pushed over the edge to commit crimes, and no one has ever healed depression by taking medication. The balto bunny project is a call to action, to spread the word that depression is curable, these medications are dangerous, and to demand a protocol be created for treating depression, beyond writing prescriptions and a 15-minute office visit every few months for more drugs.
The community on this site will feature a robust social network for people tired of battling depression, on medication and losing hope, and in all stages of detox (even just considering it). It will be a supportive, educational, and inspirational environment that I hope will be a stepping stone in many lives towards healing.
As a group, we will have a powerful voice that cannot be ignored. I belive we can change the way depression is viewed and treated. In the future I hope to create treatment centers for people who were as sick as I was, to come and get well and learn to put their pieces back together and build a beautiful life worth living.
If I can save people from going through what I went through- suffering from depression for so many many many years and living in a nightmare of medications that made me sicker, it will make it all worth it. That was my life, the only one I have. Those are years I can never have back. Instead, I can only hope to give them to someone else.
