Reverse Psychiatry

A common manipulation technique that involves medicating a patient resulting in undesirable outcomes in order to make them see that their shitty existence pre medication wasn't so bad Afterall.
Note: this is the main and often only modality of treatment used by private psychiatrists.

I went to get some help for my mental health. Man, it was a disaster, the medication made me dizzy, I put on weight and I'm pretty sure I started having micro-strokes too. Thankfully the Psychiatrist was just using reverse Psychiatry on me, I feel so much better now that I'm off my meds and the whole experience really helped my appreciate my shitty life.
