Psychiatry: Black Magic Masquerading as Science

 

Modern psychiatry is the greatest con on earth.

Psychiatrists and general practitioners have become increasingly enthusiastic about drug therapy in recent decades. They claim that they can treat a wide range of disorders with psychotropic drugs, and so a goodly portion of the nation now regularly gulps down happy tablets. The startling result is that the incidence of mental health problems is increasing. Officially, one in two people in Britain is incurably mentally ill. Yes, you read that correctly. One in two people in Britain is incurably mentally ill. In other countries, including the United States, the figure is similar or worse. Some of those people are classified as mentally ill because they cannot cope with the modern world. Some are classified as mentally ill because they fit new criteria for mental illness (they have symptoms which are now regarded as indicative of mental illness). And some of those who are classified as mentally ill have been made ill by the reckless prescribing of powerful and dangerous drugs.

(Despite this, the number of hospital beds available for mental health patients is constantly shrinking. This is, of course, because the mentally ill make an ineffective lobby and have almost no political clout. Politicians quickly bow to drug industry pressures because providing hospital beds costs more money than providing mind numbing drugs which turn patients into zombies.)

But the bare truth is that psychiatry isn't a science at all and it isn't even an art. It’s more of a confidence trick; a collegiate confidence trick with pretensions of grandeur. Psychiatrists often claim that the drugs they prescribe are designed to correct chemical imbalances in the brain. But the simple fact is that there is no evidence that there is any such thing as `chemical imbalance'. Ask any psychiatrist about this and he will agree that `chemical imbalance' is a still unproven theory. It's never even been properly tested so how could it ever be proven? So how can psychiatrists and drug companies possibly treat the problems which they claim are caused by `chemical imbalance'?

The bald truth is that psychiatry is no more a science than witchcraft. It is a perfect example of pseudoscience running riot. Cinema legend Samuel Goldwyn was right when he said that anybody who goes to see a psychiatrist ought to have his head examined. A big part of the problem lies in the fact that modern medical thinking is based upon the Cartesian principle that the mind and the body can be treated separately. The modern clinician still does not see the mind and the body as a single unit (that is why orthodox practitioners don't believe in holistic medicine) and this leaves the way open for psychiatrists to play around with the human mind as though it were a completely separate entity.

Psychiatrists won’t tell you this (because it is, to say the least, rather embarrassing) but a large study of randomly selected psychiatric patients showed that approximately three quarters (75%) of the patients had been wrongly diagnosed. And no one could be sure that the remaining 25% had been properly diagnosed, or were receiving appropriate treatment. The medication prescribed is often no more effective than a placebo.

In many cases patients are diagnosed as having - and are then treated for - serious psychiatric problems when their symptoms are caused by drugs they have been given for physical problems or for other mental problems.

Whole wards full of patients have been diagnosed, treated and classified as suffering from schizophrenia when they were actually suffering from side effects produced by the drugs they had been given by prescription happy doctors.

The idea that anyone would describe psychiatry as a science is utterly absurd. Nothing that psychiatrists claim as `fact' can be proved by any means recognised by scientists; there are no proper controls and if an experiment is repeated, it rarely produces the same result. Let me be clear: there are no facts in psychiatry, only convenient commercial assumptions.

The ultimate absurdity is the fact that psychiatrists claim that only they are fit to judge the effectiveness of their recommendations. Psychiatry is black magic masquerading as science.

"PSYCHIATRY is an emperor standing naked in his new clothes.  It has striven for 70 years to become an emperor, a full brother with the other medical specialties.  And now it stands there resplendent in its finery.  But it does not have any clothes on, and even worse, nobody has told it so.  To tell an emperor that he does not have any clothes on has never been advocated as the best way to win friends.  The alternative, however, is equally painful, for you must then become part of the general delusion."— Psychiatrist E. Fuller Torrey, M.D., in the Preface to his book The Death of Psychiatry(Penguin Books 1974)

Psychiatry should be abolished as a medical specialty because medical school education is not needed nor even helpful for doing counsel­ling or so-called psychotherapy, because the perception of mental illness as a biological entity is mistak­en, because psychia­try's "treatments" other than counselling or psychotherapy (drugs, electroshock, and psychosurgery) hurt rather than help people, because nonpsychia­tric physicians are better able than psychi­atrists to treat real brain disease, and because nonpsy­chiatric physicians' acceptance of psychiatry as a medical specialty is a poor reflec­tion on the medical profession as a whole...

Try to be grateful and kind to others and yourself.

Be positive and never EVER think you are DAMAGED or ABNORMAL in any way(s). Here's another one - be thankful, for you shouldn't change for others, only for yourself and to be the best version of yourself. Use whatever tools (medication and therapy) and learn better ways to cope so you can live. You (anybody and everybody reading) deserve to be find acceptance - accept yourself and whatever (so called) illnesses and disorders and start living. Today - right now!

"Exposing the colossal fraud titled Psychiatry"... The ‘mental health issues’ scam

 

 

The ‘mental health issues’ scam: a deep dive into the underlying crimes and the self-appointed “rulers of the mind”

Advisory[dot]com, December 14, 2016: “An estimated 40 million Americans take psychiatric drugs.”

by Jon Rappoport
 

HERE: https://blog.nomorefakenews.com/2022/08/17/now-this-is-what-id-call-a-civil-war/

...

... ...

" “Mental health issues” is a PRODUCT. It’s being sold like SUVs, cereal, beer, skin care lotions." ...

 

"The drugs CAUSE very real mental problems. There is no doubt that some of the people confessing their mental health issues these days are really talking about the effects of the drugs; but they don’t know it." ...

 

"The first question to ask is: do mental disorders have any scientific basis? There are now roughly 300 of them. They multiply like fruit flies.

An open secret has been bleeding out into public consciousness for the past ten years.

THERE ARE NO DEFINING LABORATORY TESTS FOR ANY SO-CALLED MENTAL DISORDER.

No blood tests, no urine tests, no saliva tests, no brain scans, no genetic assays." ...

 

"Dr. Russell Barkley:

"A disorder doesn’t have to have a blood test to be valid. If that were the case, all mental disorders would be invalid…There is no lab test for any mental disorder right now in our science. That doesn’t make them invalid."

"Boom.

Oh, indeed, that DOES make them invalid. Utterly and completely. All 300 mental disorders. They’re all hoaxes. Because there are no defining tests of any kind to back up the diagnosis." ...

 

"Dr. Allen Frances: 

Dr. Frances talked to Wired’s Greenberg and said the following: “There is no definition of a mental disorder. It’s bul*****. I mean, you just can’t define it.” "...

 

"The so-called “chemical-imbalance” theory of mental illness is dead.

Dr. Ronald Pies, the editor-in-chief emeritus of the Psychiatric Times, laid the theory to rest in the July 11, 2011, issue of the Times with this staggering admission:

“In truth, the ‘chemical imbalance’ notion was always a kind of urban legend — never a theory seriously propounded by well-informed psychiatrists.” "

 

 

"—The chemical-imbalance theory is a fake. There are no defining physical tests for any of the 300 so-called mental disorders. All diagnoses are based on arbitrary clusters or menus of human behavior. The drugs are harmful, dangerous, toxic. Some of them induce violence. Suicide, homicide. Some of the drugs cause brain damage.

Psychiatry is a pseudoscience."

 

"Here is a staggering statistic from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI): “More than 25 percent of college students have been diagnosed or treated by a professional for a mental health condition within the past year.” " ...

 

"NAMI also states: “Approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S.—43.8 million, or 18.5%—experiences mental illness in a given year.”

These figures are earthshaking." ...

I do believe (declare) that this thread has served it purpose; so I would sincerely ask that anybody out there reading this to please disregard much of the content as mere opinion (everyone is entitled to at least that), but, again, nobody here is a "professional" or "qualified" to make medical decisions, and this is something only YOU and your doctor to make, and THAT decision to seek out mental health assistance is a very personal decision, while some might consider it to be "Scam", I do think I'm fairly secure in saying, it is NOT a scam.

 

If you are in crisis or seeking help from others on the internet:

Please be aware that much of others advice is "tainted" towards their (others posters/members) bias, so there is not such thing as "good advice" online only take what you read on the internet with a grain of salt and as for entertainment purpose. While I do agree, sometimes asking others for support can be helpful, if you are in crisis and feel vulnerable, I would tell you to please reach out for professional help. This can be in the forum of a crisis hotline or google for mental health "warm line" if not in an emergency situation. Otherwise, if you are feeling suicidal or feeling in a place that you would consider harming yourself or others, I would strongly suggest you contact emergency and consider going to the hospital. Period!

It takes time and patience, but you can get better and recover, and don't EVER EVER EVER think what you are experiencing is "Fake" or "Fraudulent".

So to those that reached out in this thread, please don't give up and continue seeking advice from others if this helps you, but if you feel fragile to others input, I'd suggest you avoid discussing mental health or physical health with others on the internet as that advice can be very dangerous and and detrimental to your health.

Of course: Its All In Our Head". Sad but true and while you *should* be aware of the connotations, implications, and stigma of labels when it comes to what you are dealing with; don't let that every stop you from seeking professional help.

You ARE so very worth it and there is nothing wrong with you!

While you may struggle in other ways that others don't, there is a lot right with you and you can build on that to become the best version of yourself.

You are simply BEAUTIFUL and pretending to be NORMAL won't help you.

I will honestly say:

After reading some of the posting myself, I think that time to take a very long break from the internet and forums as this would serve me well to focus on what I can change and try to let go and shift the focus on what is not within my control. While I'm not in a fragile state of mind, I can find myself feeling much worse after reading some postings, and while I do (and truly hope) they are well-meaning, I question that nature and tone that some posters, and being shot down by others is not helpful in any way and people might need to reflect before postings of such.

Be well and manage as best as possible.

There's nothing wrong with you.. not even the darkest corner of that beautiful soul that is you!

Sorry, but I haven't read the last 5 pages of this thread, I don't necissarily have the patience too unfortunatelly. just a thing about ADHD! i can say my life has suddenly turned around in a week, which is kind of crazy, because i met someone and they are the person of my dreams.

they noticed i wasn't really acting like myself and they sent me a PM on Discord, but then we just started talking more and more and more and well, we really like each other. we had a moment last night where we were just happy to talk to each other. we may be seperated by the entire US (im east coast, they're west coast) but that doesnt stop us from liking each other.

of course, we will give it a month or two until anything is official, but we are patient with our issues and forgive each other. truly a healthy friendship so far.

i also saw this image about ADHD and id like to share it here. shows a lot to how much deeper adhd goes...

The unfortunate thing about ADHD is that a lot of the world thinks its just impulse and trouble focusing, as the image shows. But it is sooooooooooo much more than that... and that causes a lot of people to just find people with ADHD and more severe forms of it as lazy people, people who dont care, and people who just use other people. but that is not how it is. im just mentally limited by something that makes every day running at the speed of sound, and everything is either a "really great!" or "incredibly depressing!". 

It sucks. A lot of people just didnt have the patience and care to work with me on it, either. They just decided i didnt care about them and saw me as a bad person and avoided me. Luckily, the person i met, has tought me more on how to slow down and take things cautiously, think more logically about things and make better decisions. and even sometimes i still make mistakes in that area.. she will forgive me.

id also talk more about how her family is incredibly homophobic and transphobic (as she is trans and pansexual) but those topics are pretty controversial. only if ppl here want me to talk abt it.

Famous Musician Touched By Stranger's Act Of Kindness

"The lead vocalist for REO Speedwagon was the recipient of an act of kindness while trying to rent a bicycle in Toronto on Monday.

Kevin Cronin was set to perform at Budweiser Stage alongside Styx Tuesday night, he said in a social media post.

"While I was attempting (unsuccessfully) to rent a bicycle from a kiosk here in Toronto this afternoon, a super-friendly family went out of their way, and offered me one of their rental bikes," he wrote.

"They refused to take no for an answer, nor would they accept any token of my appreciation... including free concert tickets for Tuesday night," he said.

Cronin said the family did not recognize him, but that they were "simply being nice".

"We all need reaffirmation of the intrinsic kindness in human nature, and I got my daily reminded today in Toronto," he added."

Nothing to sorry about, patience is virtue.

Just happy you came back here and decided to read the thread and talk to us ... as I said, we are not professional, but people do care and mean well (hopefully). I (and others) don't always get it right, or say the right things, but I try and hope something I've said will help others.

I haven't read or processed your posting properly and will write when I can think clear (which rarely happens ... hehe)

This is good you have found somebody that understands your condition (hope that is ok) I hate to say we are ill (Illness or even disabled).. whom the heck wants to be "normal" whatever that is, anyway. NO such thing as normal and is others profess to say they are to to you, shrug it off, dust yourself off and never stop trying.

Ugh ... that is a bit difficult seeing her family is transphobic, and while I do want to say:

I (no longer) respond to private messages unless from admin or moderators now (please understand my own anxiety and conditions), however, I'm certainly willing to talk about it; but again, I don't always know the answers so hold me to it in court =P

Of course you do, we are all human and always don't know the right things to say to others, but be honest and true and genuine ( don't mean to trust without other "blindly" - trust is earned, people need to gain your trust and this where people have let me down in my own life) and I don't mean advise you to be fake or lie, just protect yourself and be cautious. Always forgive yourself and allow others to accept when you ask others for that forgiveness, people that are true will know and also understand, those whom don't aren't worth you time. Period!

Just in case other haven't figured it out yet, I'm also LGBTQ+ while those labels are often put into place by others to box us into certain corners to consider us outcast, they can sometimes be helpful to better to understand your genuine self.  Spending whole life pretending to be something you are not will be recipe for sadness and mental and physical illness. I'm 50yo and those labels don't help me much, seeing I'm a loner and sex IS NOT for me. Yep, you read that right, only 3 times in all my entire lifetime and its not for me, but I am gay and asexual male, but not pansexual or Non-binary, or genderfluid, just male old fart. I look like I fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. I'm not a pretty sight ... HA!

Anyways, will write more later after my camomile tea ... not that being something a guy would call masculine ... OMG .. who cares just be YOU!

You sound like you have your head screwed on - which is more than I can say for myself, most days; and you seem able to handle this (rather difficult situation) and please be careful and understanding to your friend given her family is not accepting for whatever reason(s), Please don't feel as if you can always handle the weight of the world on your 2 shoulders all the time and you need to talk to others, and sometimes being (somewhat) anonymous on the internet makes that difference to be better able to talk, seeing in real life, people are not (always) accepting as we are all supposed to be robots and the same. Always consider yourself to be lucky we live in country that we are not killed for being "different".

Will write more later

Please feel free to post if you need to and if you do seek out support on the internet (via forums), just be very VERY careful to not tie in to computer forums (such as here), just be careful but I'd bet you are careful already and know more than I about it. I don't worry as much about trolls seeing why waste time with me, just here and XP forum now, no other places and I keep to myself and hide away from the world and further isolate and that (partly) turned (or aggravated) my severe agoraphobia ... sometimes up to 15 days inside and I wouldn't want this on anybody, but now, need to recover and recognize what I'm dealing with and make the best of it, but I'm still falling short of my progress and the setbacks have put me 1 step forward and 10 steps backwards. If I give into the fear(s) I'm starting the phase and continuing to feed the issue at hand, and my fears largely go hand-in-hand with my anxiety around others and social phobia, and while I'm very protected (if people only knew how much and well protected, now, due in part by my dearly perpetrated fathers wishes) I fall short, and when I fall, I hit the ground and stay down too long .... need to get back up.

Will write more a little bit.
