Seem to not like to acknowledge personality disorders in formal legal definitions. Poses the question are they like medical people whom harbour stigma to this group,? It's well documented across the UK Inc Scotland medical community have a terrible attitude and dismissive outlook to this mental disorder. So the Commission causing me concern.

I was starved for 3 days and forced to take an overdose of unsuitable medication under no act of law. The welfare commission refuse to investigate the false doctors reports that could endanger my life. They have little care for the human rights of patients. *Edit* 4years on I’m still in pain and am once again being threatened with the same drugs that almost killed me.... Thankfully I contacted Headway who were willing to bypass my doctors and send me to appropriate specialists. Now none of the 24-30 doctors that accused me of being mentally ill will talk to me. Unfortunately diffuse anoxic anoxia doesn’t show up on MRI scans, the only real evidence of it would be if someone was dumb enough to give me antipsychotics or benzodiazepines. If only there was some sort of “commission” that had a legal duty to look after the “welfare” of the “mentally” incapacitated? Who under act of law had a duty to “report any matter of general interest or concern as respects the welfare of any persons who have a mental disorder” to the appropriate people, like say reporting the assault by unlawful drugging of patient to Police Scotland, or the falsifying of medical records a criminal offence under S.318 MHA
