Psychiatry News
Not Good.
You may not have
heard, but the news about psychiatry these days is not good news.
A broad coalition
of psychiatrists, mental health practitioners, doctors, and victims of
psychotropic medication have begun to weave together a broad tapestry of
protest against psychiatric malpractice and pharmaceutical greed.
This site will
help guide you across that tapestry now so widely available on the
internet.
It is not a
pretty picture, but one reason it is so hard to accept is that it runs up
against years of marketing to the public – you and I, in other words –
about the “value” of mental health treatment.
Forty percent of
all advertising dollars spent on TV are pharmaceutical dollars. Drug
companies not only promote their wares to you and me -- while minimizing
their side effects -- but they also fund the majority of research done by
psychiatrists into mental “diseases” that are then medicated by the same
dangerous drugs these pharmaceutical companies produce. |
But they need the
MD behind the psychiatrist’s signature to get these drugs into the hands
and mouths of you, me and our children.
Action
required by FDA
The broad protest
against the production and prescription of these sometimes lethal
medications has finally prompted the U.S. Federal Drug Administration to
take action by increasing the severity of warnings on labels and by
removing some of these drugs altogether from the marketplace.
These
psychotropic drugs also have "side effects"? In fact, seventy-five percent
of all recent shooting sprees such as the one at Columbine High School
were carried out by men and women on or just coming off these psychotropic
drugs.
Hard to believe,
I know
Why? Because all
of this is being done in the name of help. You and I have in our minds the
idea that help is good, and psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry
both take advantage of that core belief of ours. Just watch a TV
commercial for Prozac. Is there any doubt from the slick presentation that
this product will do anything but help us? |
When the side
effects are “confusion,” “extreme anger,” “suicide,” or a even a lethal
shooting spree, that isn’t help.
But don’t take my
word for it.
Click on any of
the sites listed on this site and see for yourself.
Some of what
you’ll read and see is obvious. Some of it is less obvious and, at first
appearance, harsh, regardless if the site is sponsored by a psychiatrist,
a victim of psychiatry, an alternative health practitioner, a religious
practitioner, or a parent concerned for the welfare of their children.
They all say the
same thing.
Why?
Take a look.
Then you’ll have
your own answer to that question.
