As a hospice nurse, I find these videos very helpful. Haldol is a go-to for terminal agitation for many of my patients & sometimes it's the difference between a peaceful passing & the patient & family being stressed out in the process.

Imagine you go into a mental health hospital and there are more diagnosed with schizophrenia but on M4 modulator enhancers as in gen 4 antipsychotics. Many could be busy and less troubled.

I have been forced medication for about 15 years now and I have gynecomastia.

It's the antipsychotics and I've noticed the doctors are helping other people with their problems but not me.
I have big problems now due to the medicine I have to take.

I hope there's a proper way for me because I could go after someone and hurt them for what they did to me.
I might do so.
I have non-lethal which I could basically go after someone.
They say I'm severely sick and have been forcing me medicines for about 15 years now.

Hey, we can talk about this because this isn't fair.
