Summary:
Use of psychotropic medications has increased dramatically in this generation. Illnesses once thought hopeless and untreatable have been brought under control, and the people with these illnesses have been allowed to live healthy, productive lives. Bearing witness to the positive and negative aspects of psychotropic medications, and often faced with the brunt of day-to-day questions about these drugs are the case managers, social workers, psychologists, counselors, nurses, aides and other front line mental health care staff.
