Abstract
A brief autoethnographic commentary that describes the harms of a pervasive emphasis on medications and medication adherence in the treatment of schizophrenia, including within "best practice" early psychosis programs. The narrative emphasizes the extent to which, in spite of endless rhetoric of person-centered, recovery-oriented care, the reality remains that medication-centric treatment tends to dominate clinical services and programs, fueling the objectification and alienation of service users, and ultimately, in all too many cases, disengagement. The author's personal experiences are provided as an illustration of the potentially devastating impacts that a narrow and rigid focus on medications (and medicalized clinical relationships) can have.
