Psychiatry - what you don't know

Inside the North American medical system, the ties between drug manufacturers and the profession of psychiatry are indeed the strongest. Psychiatry is well informed about how the human mind operates and the behavior altering drug manufacturers have used that science to their advantage.

Drug manufacturer's leading "behavior altering" medication line, SSRI's, (Paxil, Zoloft, Luvox, Prozac, Celexa etc) have been recently proven not to offer any benefit above what can be obtained by simply taking a sugar pill. Lets listen to Dr. Mark Hyman review the meta analysis (a study of studies) that brought this to light.



Oddly enough the drug manufacturers were also aware of this during trials. Not only were SSRI's ineffective, they also provided side effects such as increases in depression, weight gain and suicide. What these drug manufacturers were also very aware of, thanks to their friends in the field of psychiatry, is that humans are creatures of habit. The plan was to lie about the trial results, move the ineffective/dangerous medications as fast as possible and when the news came out of their ineffectiveness/dangerous side effects....human nature would take it from there and keep sales strong.

Once a human is convinced they are ill, it actually becomes ingrained into their psyche. Getting off any anti-depression medication entails 1) admitting you were lied to and that you are taking dangerous medications 2) admitting you are depressed for reasons other than an SSRI deficiency 3) turning your back on all the societal attention and courtesies extended to the sick 4) working on a medication tapering schedule with your doctor (who always wants you to stay on the drugs so it literally escalates into a fight) 5) working on the real causes for the depression (processed foods, toxicity, unsatisfying jobs/relationships etc) and 6) taking responsibility for your own health. (#6 is the mother of all steps regardless of medication/illness) That is hard to do and drug manufacturers knew this when they lied to the public. It is easier to keep moving ahead sometimes even if it is in the wrong direction. Drug makers knew the ending before they even started to test the SSRI's because they have used the same blueprint for years.

Lets watch a parade of medical professionals (including psychiatrists) discuss that there is really no scientific basis to psychiatry.


You can watch this entire movie, in parts, free on youtube. This is a short introduction.

Great post Jason and a very impactful video. It's shocking to see what lies we've been told by people we trust.
