When they tortured me in a psychiatric hospital in 2005 I watched “One flew over the cuckoo’s nest”, only to conclude that this movie is like a walk in the park compared to what I’m seeing here.
Psychiatric drugs in fact cause severe damage to the brain, while the political prisoners in fact have no energy and aren’t able to concentrate on any task more difficult than tying shoelaces. When you see psychiatric patients/victims walking with a lack of coordination, balance and blurred eyes, this is really caused by the drugs.
There are no "side effects" of psychiatric drugs; these adverse effects are THE effect. There is not one psychiatric drug with positive effects in the long term.
INVENTING MENTAL DISORDERS
It’s really easy to invent psychiatric diseases; this is mainly done by the American DSM.
Lisa Cosgrove concludes that most members of the DSM IV and DSM V panels are financially tied to the pharmaceutical industry (100% for the section that decides on psychosis related disorders):
http://behaviorismandmentalhealth.co...DSM-IV-COI.pdf
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...ed.1001190.pdf
So now the pharmaceutical industry can even describe the effects of the drugs as the result of a mental disorder. Because all the psychiatric treatments do harm, all the “scientific research” on psychiatric drugs (or ECT) are manipulated. It’s the pharmaceutical industry that finances and decides on the “research”.
Most “scientific” trials for psychiatric drugs aren’t even properly controlled with a placebo, with the argument that a proper placebo controlled trial would be unethical.
ADHD - RITALIN
With the invention of ADHD, psychiatrists are now experimenting on healthy children. People with AD(H)D do not have problems with concentration when they are not bored, which leads to the conclusion that the children that are sentenced to ADHD do not suffer from any mental disease, but something is wrong with the (boring) state education.
The story of ADHD is that some children (coincidently mostly boys of the lower classes) suffer from a chemical imbalance in their brain (that usually miraculously stops in adulthood), causing concentration problems and makes them hyperactive. They do not diagnose ADHD by measuring this chemical imbalance of the brain, but by studying behaviour. How ridiculous the story really is, becomes apparent when the lack of attention can also lead to exact opposite – really quiet behaviour - ADD (mostly girls of the lower classes). So psychiatrists can choose at will which (poor) kids are sentenced to AD(H)D.
You might know the tale that only children with ADHD improve on Ritalin (but others get hyperactive). According to L. Alan Sroufe, professor emeritus at the University of Minnesota’s Institute of Child Development, Methylphenidate (Ritalin) was given to radar operators in World War II to help them focus on boring, repetitive tasks (is this an accurate description for school?): http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/29/op...term.html?_r=0
If children refuse a little too hard to get brainwashed, they “need” psychiatric treatment. In the USA schools are stimulated to sentence kids to AD(H)D by a child find bonus, and additional money for each schoolchild with AD(H)D: http://www.rense.com/general4/addd.htm
In Massachusetts 60% of the orphans and in Texas between 31% and 42% of the foster children are on psychiatric drugs: http://www.texastribune.org/2013/01/...ed-high-doses/
Ritalin is similar to amphetamine, a highly addictive hallucinative drug. Because kids get hooked, they could even say that Ritalin is beneficial (so they get their drugs). Quitting Ritalin leads to withdrawal effects, which is used as an argument for Ritalin (look what happens without Ritalin!). Nadine Lambert concludes Ritalin leads to drugs abuse: http://www.berkeley.edu/news/berkele...2/ritalin.html
It is well known that using amphetamines leads to extreme and aggressive (hyperactive) behaviour; because of Ritalin more people will suffer from attention disorders and hyperactivity. A list of (side) effects of Ritalin – aggression, psychosis, depression, bad results at school, stomach ache, headache, seizures, coma and insomnia: http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/...ethsummary.pdf
The MTA study compared different kind of treatments, including a large group that got no drugs, for 579 children diagnosed with ADHD according to DSM and ran for years. In the first 14 months the hyperactive behaviour of the children with ADHD notably “improved”, but from 3 years on the group on Ritalin was just as hyperactive as the group without (drugs). After 8 years: 70% of the group didn’t show hyperactive symptoms (independent of treatment), so why did they give them drugs in the first place? After 6 years the group that got no drugs showed less: 1) depressions or anxiety disorders (4.3% compared to more than 16.4%) and 2) psychotic or manic disorders (0.9% compared to more than 2.0%). Another conclusion is that the group with ADHD was less successful than a control group. See Molina et al The MTA at 8 Years: … ADHD in a Multisite Study (2009): http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...hms-271449.pdf
Over the years some retired psychologists put their reputation on the line by revealing that ADHD is a prime example of a fictitious disease, for example: Leon Eisenberg (who played a part in inventing ADHD) and Jerome Kagan (of Harvard University). Here an interview with Kagan: http://www.spiegel.de/international/...-a-847500.html
MANIC/PSYCHOTIC/SCHIZOPHRENIA - ANTIPSYCHOTICS
Giving millions of children hallucinative drugs like Ritalin is like a time bomb leading to a large increase in psychosis related illnesses (according to the DSM these are also caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain ... using drugs of course creates a chemical imbalance), so now they need antipsychotics (before you know it everybody is on a cocktail of psychiatric drugs).
Some experts describe antipsychotics as a chemical lobotomy. If your (future) work is the treatment of psychotic patients you should read the scientific reports referenced by Robert Whitaker: http://psychrights.org/Litigation/WhitakerAffidavit.pdf
1) Psychiatry in the “developed” world is worse than (the lack of treatment) in the third world - Leff et al The international pilot study of schizophrenia: … (1992): http://psychrights.org/research/Dige...icity/who1.pdf
2) Antipsychotics (Haldol, Risperdal (Risperidon) and Zyprexa (Olanzapine)) frustrate the recovery of people with mental problems -Lehtinen et al Two-year outcome in first-episode psychosis … (2000): http://psychrights.org/Research/Dige...integrated.pdf
3) Antipsychotics have terrible (side) effects like shrinking of the brain - Gur et al Subcortical MRI volumes in neuroleptic-naive … (1998): http://psychrights.org/Research/Dige...ubcortical.pdf
4) Because of antipsychotics patients die younger (murder by prescription): Waddington et al Mortality in schizophrenia (1998): http://psychrights.org/research/Dige...lity(1998).PDF
PARKINSON & ALZHEIMER – FULL CIRCLE
One of the main effects of antipsychotics is Parkinson, so before you know it, the patients need anti-Parkinson drugs like Akineton (Biperiden). Akineton is also an addictive hallucinative drug leading to dementia (cognitive impairment) making the treatment full circle. Where the madness began by prescribing the addictive hallucinative drug Ritalin to children, the madness ends (or continues) with addictive hallucinative drugs for Parkinson.
In a recent study by Loyola Medicine and Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine in the journal Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics they concluded that anti-Parkinson agents in more than 1 out of 7 cases leads to impulse disorders, like gambling, compulsive buying and sex addiction: https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...0405161348.htm
Here's an example of the terrible effects of Akineton – addiction, dementia and not being able even to perform the simplest tasks - Espi Martinez et al Biperiden Dependence: Case Report and Literature Review (2012): http://downloads.hindawi.com/journal...012/949256.pdf
All of these drugs affect the short term memory (cognitive impairment), so the victims of psychiatry get Alzheimer’s disease. Now the rich (psychiatrists) say mental diseases are hereditary and the lower classes are inferior because they suffer more from psychiatry.
ANTIDEPRESSANTS - PROZAC
I only wanted information on the most popular antidepressant Prozac (Fluoxetine), but found information on other antidepressants as well. Prozac is a Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) and for 94% Fluoride, Fluoride is a highly toxic chemical waste from the production of aluminium (and other metals). The Nazis experimented with Fluoride to discover that their slave labourers in concentration camps became docile.
The following story by psychiatrist Peter R. Breggin is based on scientific reports: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-pet...b_1077185.html
The following report shows that receptors in the brain of rats diminish because of Prozac. Wamsley et al - Receptor alterations... (1987): http://static1.1.sqspcdn.com/static/...DyxtuxA%2BM%3D0
This can explain the effect of Prozac. When receptors are blocked, your brain is effectively blocked (coincidently antipsychotics also block receptors in the brain). The first few days this could result in blocking of all bad (depressed) thoughts and the first few days the (depressed) patient/victim could suddenly get euphoric. Of course not noticing things will result in apathy (docile). Because of missing stimulation they will get depressed and some start behaving extreme to try to get some kind of stimulation. This agitated hyperactivity is called manic, and the DSM has invented the manic depression label.
The following literature review concludes that most patients stop taking antidepressants (because it doesn’t help). For Prozac the dropout rate was 40 to 54%. Andrews et al - Blue again: perturbational effects of antidepressants... (2011): http://static1.1.sqspcdn.com/static/...tOlJ16rddQY%3D
Prozac causes: suicidal and homicidal behaviour, impotence, anxiety, insomnia, akathisia, birth defects and withdrawal effects. The next study shows that long term antidepressants usage results in: Depression, Tardive Dyskinesia and Tardive Dysphoria. Any idea what psychopaths prescribe drugs that induce depression for depression? Mallakh et al – Tardive dysphoria: The role of long term antidepressant use... (2011): http://static1.1.sqspcdn.com/static/...dqYCLNbqJQc%3D
The following literature review shows that even on short term antidepressants are not better than placebo (these studies were even manipulated by the pharmaceutical industry). Kirsch - Initial Severity and Antidepressant Benefits... (2008): http://journals.plos.org/plosmedicin...ed.0050045.PDF
SUICIDAL AND HOMOCIDAL BECAUSE OF THE DRUGS
Regularly we hear in the news about some psychiatric patient that has committed murder. They never mention the fact that most of these psychiatric patients in question have become homicidal because of the prescribed psychiatric drugs.
The manufacturer of Prozac (Ely Lilly) knew already in 1978 of these adverse effects of Prozac. In 1988 an intern report of Ely Lilly showed that 38% of the users of Prozac suffered from “reactions”. Not only are studies of the psychiatric drugs manipulated, but also judicial trials: http://ssristories.org/deadliest-mar...illy-suicides/
The following article explains how this works, including at least 35 school shootings with 79 killed (including the 1999 Columbine high school) and at least 25 other acts of violence with 251 dead (including the airplane crash on March 24, 2015 in France that killed 150): https://www.cchrint.org/2012/07/20/t...hotropic-drug/
The actual number of violence related to psychiatric drugs is much higher: between 2004 and 2012, there have been 14,773 reports to the U.S. FDA about psychiatric drugs causing violence. The FDA estimates that less than 1% of all serious events are reported.
Here´s some scientific looking evidence to proof that psychiatric drugs cause violence. The following report shows that from 484 evaluable drugs, 31 cause violence, these 31 drugs accounted for 1527 out of 1937 cases of violence (79%): Varenicline (place 1), Fluoxetine (Prozac, place 2), Paroxetine (3), Amphetamines, Mefloquine, Atomoxetine, Triazolam, Fluvoxamine, Venlafaxine, Desvenlafaxine, Montelukast, Sertraline, Zolpidem, Escitalopram, Sodium oxybate, Citalopram, Aripiprazole, Oxycodone, Bupropion, Ziprasidone, Methylphenidate (Ritalin), Mirtazapine, Gabapentin, Levetiracetam, Diazepam, Alprazolam, Duloxetine, Clonazepam, Interferon alfa, Risperidone (Risperdal), Quetiapine (place 31). See Moore et al, Prescription Drugs Associated with Reports of Violence Towards Others (2010): http://journals.plos.org/plosone/art...l.pone.0015337
One of the drugs that make patients/victims homicidal is Wellbutrin (also known as Bupropion and Zyban), although it´s not even in the top 31 drugs of Moore et al.
Here´s the connected story about how GlaxoSmithKline settled a law suit for 3 billion dollar regarding the illegal promotion of the drugs Advair, Avandia, Paxil and Wellbutrin in situations that were not approved by the FDA. GlaxoSmithKline paid TV-doctor Dr. Drew Pinsky (of “Lifechangers” and “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew”) $275,000 in 1999 to advertise Wellbutrin on his shows: http://www.thedailybeast.com/article...epressant.html.
ECT - ELECTROSHOCKS
Not so long ago I found out that even these days psychiatric patients get tortured with ElectroConvulsive Therapy (ECT). It is known that ECT causes memory loss and confusion, which apparently is the desired effect.
Here’s a literature review on ECT Read and Bentall “The effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy” (2010): http://www.mindfreedom.org/kb/mental...ad-bentall.pdf
LOBOTOMIES
There are even now psychiatrists that want to reinstate lobotomies in all its glory.
In the mid-19th century they already stopped performing lobotomies (surgery to remove part of the brain), because it only had negative effects. In the 1940s this was reason to reinstate lobotomies in all its glory (using an ice-pick for the operation). The Nobel Prize committee awarded António Egas Moniz in 1949 for perfecting the art of lobotomies.
By the late 1970s, the practice of lobotomy had generally ceased (on mental patients), but have returned under a new name, lobectomy, which is only used to treat epilepsy (and other seizure disorders). Here’s a good story on the history (and present practice) of lobotomies: http://www.wired.com/2011/03/lobotomy-history/
EXAMPLES
In the Rosenhan experiment in 1972 8 mentally sane pseudo patients complained about voices in their head and were admitted to institutions. They behaved “normal” but the only way they could escape from the claws of psychiatry was to admit they were sick and take the medicine (which they dumped in the toilet). They eventually escaped with the remarkable diagnosis “schizophrenia in remission”; one of them was locked up for 52 days.
In 1943 Ezra Pound was sentenced for treason for his support of fascism in the 1930’s and 1940’s while living in Italy. Instead of standing trial, he was declared insane and locked up in St Elizabeth’s hospital from 1945 until 1958. Pound was called a terrible traitor to the USA (“worse than Hitler” according to Arthur Miller), fascist, anti-Semite and insane (he wanted the usurping banks stopped). Judge two of his papers for yourself: http://vho.org/aaargh/fran/livres8/PoundCausesofWar.pdf
Nobel Prize winner Ernest Hemingway, a protégé of Ezra Pound, committed suicide in 1961 because they tortured him with ECT.
One of the few horrible examples that’s reasonably described is Garth Daniels: http://www.madinamerica.com/2016/05/...garth_daniels/
THE FUTURE - NEUROSCIENCE
For many years psychiatrist keeps telling that horrendous practices are a thing of the past.
There are plans to use new high tech neuroscience to treat psychiatric patients (with electroshocks) much more efficiently, while technology could also be used to diagnose mental disease. If everything goes according to plan, the new psychiatric patients/victims can be found without some human psychiatrist that might actually try to help a psychiatric victim: https://www.theguardian.com/science/...chiatric-drugs
PSYCHIATRY TO CONTROL THE WHOLE POPULATION
Because of psychiatry the number of psychiatric victims is steadily rising. Robert Whitaker describes that at the beginning of the 20th century less than 2 out 1000 Americans were mentally ill; by 1955 this had jumped to 3.38 per 1000, while in 2003 this was 19.7 per 1000. The number of mentally ill Americans has dramatically increased from 3.7 in 1987 to 5.7 million in 2005: http://www.cchr.org/sites/default/fi...al_Illness.pdf
Psychiatry has nothing to do with mental health care, but is an extreme form of population control.
