These days, we are witnessing an acceleration in the use of psychiatry to target Americans, to label them as dangerous, to take away guns they own, to blame gun violence in the US on mentally ill people. (see also this story by Dan Roberts).
It’s a winning strategy, because most Americans don’t have a clue about the way psychiatry actually works or its pose of being a science.
The public hears techno-speak and nods and surrenders.
If psychiatrists are experts on the human mind, mice can navigate the Arctic in canoes. But psychiatrists are educated to be able to talk a good game.
And politicians are more than happy to mouth vagaries, and consign the problems of society to “mental-health professionals.”
It turns out that the phrase “mental health” was invented by psyops specialists, who needed to create an analogy to physical well-being.
The needed to, because the mind was (and is) a mystery to psychiatrists.
An open secret has been slowly bleeding out into public consciousness for the past ten years.
THERE ARE NO DEFINITIVE LABORATORY TESTS FOR ANY SO-CALLED MENTAL DISORDER.
And along with that:
ALL SO-CALLED MENTAL DISORDERS ARE CONCOCTED, NAMED, LABELED, DESCRIBED, AND CATEGORIZED by a committee of psychiatrists, from menus of human behaviors.
Their findings are published in periodically updated editions of The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), printed by the American Psychiatric Association.
For years, even psychiatrists have been blowing the whistle on this hazy crazy process of “research.”
Of course, pharmaceutical companies, who manufacture highly toxic drugs to treat every one of these “disorders,” are leading the charge to invent more and more mental-health categories, so they can sell more drugs and make more money.
But we have a mind-boggling twist. Under the radar, one of the great psychiatric stars, who has been out in front inventing mental disorders, went public. He blew the whistle on himself and his colleagues. And for 2 years, almost no one noticed.
His name is Dr. Allen Frances, and he made VERY interesting statements to Gary Greenberg, author of a Wired article: “Inside the Battle to Define Mental Illness.” (Dec.27, 2010).
Major media never picked up on the interview in any serious way. It never became a scandal.
Dr. Allen Frances is the man who, in 1994, headed up the project to write the latest edition of the psychiatric bible, the DSM-IV. This tome defines and labels and describes every official mental disorder. The DSM-IV eventually listed 297 of them.
In an April 19, 1994, New York Times piece, “Scientist At Work,” Daniel Goleman called Frances “Perhaps the most powerful psychiatrist in America at the moment…”
Well, sure. If you’re sculpting the entire canon of diagnosable mental disorders for your colleagues, for insurers, for the government, for Pharma (who will sell the drugs matched up to the 297 DSM-IV diagnoses), you’re right up there in the pantheon.
Long after the DSM-IV had been put into print, Dr. Frances talked to Wired’s Greenberg and said the following:
“There is no definition of a mental disorder. It’s bullshit. I mean, you just can’t define it.”
BANG.
That’s on the order of the designer of the Hindenburg, looking at the burned rubble on the ground, remarking, “Well, I knew there would be a problem.”
After a suitable pause, Dr. Frances remarked to Greenberg, “These concepts [of distinct mental disorders] are virtually impossible to define precisely with bright lines at the borders.”
Frances might have been referring to the fact that his baby, the DSM-IV, had rearranged earlier definitions of ADHD and Bipolar to permit many MORE diagnoses, leading to a vast acceleration of drug-dosing with highly powerful and toxic compounds.
Finally, at the end of the Wired interview, Frances flew off into a bizarre fantasy:
“Diagnosis [as spelled out in the DSM-IV] is part of the magic…you know those medieval maps? In the places where they didn’t know what was going on, they wrote ‘Dragons live here’…we have a dragon’s world here. But you wouldn’t want to be without the map.”
Translation: Patients need hope for the healing of their troubles; so even if we psychiatrists are shooting blanks and pretending to know one kind of mental disorder from another, even if we’re inventing these mental-disorder definitions based on no biological or chemical diagnostic tests—it’s a good thing, because patients will then believe and have hope; they’ll believe it because psychiatrists place a name on their problems…
Needless to say, this has nothing to do with science.
If I were an editor at one of the big national newspapers, and one of my reporters walked in and told me, “The most powerful psychiatrist in America just said the DSM is sheer b.s. but it’s still important,” I think I’d make room on the front page.
If the reporter then added, “This shrink was in charge of creating the DSM-IV,” I’d clear more room above the fold.
If the reporter went on to explain that the whole profession of psychiatry would collapse overnight if the DSM was discredited, I’d call for a special section of the paper to be printed.
I’d tell the reporter to get ready to pound on this story day after day for months. I’d tell him to track down all the implications of Dr. Frances’ statements.
I’d open a bottle of champagne to toast the soon-to-be-soaring sales of my newspaper.
And then, of course, the next day I’d be fired.
Because there are powerful multi-billion-dollar interests at stake, and those people don’t like their deepest secrets exposed in the press.
And as I walked out of my job, I’d see a bevy of blank-eyed pharmaceutical executives marching into the office of the paper’s publisher, ready to read the riot act to him.
Dr. Frances’ work on the DSM-IV allowed for MORE toxic drugs to be prescribed, because the definition of Bipolar was expanded to include more people.
Adverse effects of Valproate (given for a Bipolar diagnosis) include:
acute, life-threatening, and even fatal liver toxicity;
life-threatening inflammation of the pancreas;
brain damage.
Adverse effects of Lithium (also given for a Bipolar diagnosis) include:
intercranial pressure leading to blindness;
peripheral circulatory collapse;
stupor and coma.
Adverse effects of Risperdal (given for “Bipolar” and “irritability stemming from autism”) include:
serious impairment of cognitive function;
fainting;
restless muscles in neck or face, tremors (may be indicative of motor brain damage).
Dr. Frances’ label-juggling act also permitted the definition of ADHD to expand, thereby opening the door for greater and greater use of toxic Ritalin (and other similar compounds) as the treatment of choice.
So what about Ritalin?
In 1986, The International Journal of the Addictions published a most important literature review by Richard Scarnati. It was called “An Outline of Hazardous Side Effects of Ritalin (Methylphenidate)” [v.21(7), pp. 837-841].
Scarnati listed a large number of adverse affects of Ritalin and cited published journal articles which reported each of these symptoms.
For every one of the following (selected and quoted verbatim) Ritalin effects, there is at least one confirming source in the medical literature:
Paranoid delusions
Paranoid psychosis
Hypomanic and manic symptoms, amphetamine-like psychosis
Activation of psychotic symptoms
Toxic psychosis
Visual hallucinations
Auditory hallucinations
Can surpass LSD in producing bizarre experiences
Effects pathological thought processes
Extreme withdrawal
Terrified affect
Started screaming
Aggressiveness
Insomnia
Since Ritalin is considered an amphetamine-type drug, expect amphetamine-like effects
Psychic dependence
High-abuse potential DEA Schedule II Drug
Decreased REM sleep
When used with antidepressants one may see dangerous reactions including hypertension, seizures and hypothermia
Convulsions
Brain damage may be seen with amphetamine abuse.

A recent survey revealed that a high percentage of children diagnosed with bipolar had first received a diagnosis of ADHD. This is informative, because Ritalin and other speed-type drugs are given to kids who are slapped with the ADHD label. Speed, sooner or later, produces a crash. This is easy to call “clinical depression.”
Then comes Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft. These drugs can produce temporary highs, followed by more crashes. The psychiatrist notices the up and down pattern—and then produces a new diagnosis of Bipolar (manic-depression) and other drugs, including Valproate and Lithium.
In the US alone, there are at least 300,000 cases of motor brain damage incurred by people who have been prescribed so-called anti-psychotic drugs (aka “major tranquilizers”). Risperdal (mentioned above as a drug given to people diagnosed with Bipolar) is one of those major tranquilizers. (source: Toxic Psychiatry, Dr. Peter Breggin, St. Martin’s Press, 1991)
This psychiatric drug plague is accelerating across the land.
Where are the mainstream reporters and editors and newspapers and TV anchors who should be breaking this story and mercilessly hammering on it week after week? They are in harness.
And Dr. Frances is somehow let off the hook. He’s admitted in print that the whole basis of his profession is throwing darts at labels on a wall, and implies the “effort” is rather heroic—when, in fact, the effort leads to more and more poisonous drugs being dispensed to adults and children, to say nothing of the effect of being diagnosed with “a mental disorder.”
I’m not talking about “the mental-disease stigma,” the removal of which is one of Hillary Clinton’s missions in life. No, I’m talking about MOVING A HUMAN INTO THE SYSTEM, the medical apparatus, where the essence of the game is trapping that person to harvest his money, his time, his energy, and of course his health—as one new diagnosis follows on another, and one new toxic treatment after another is undertaken, from cradle to grave.
The result is a severely debilitated human being (if he survives), whose major claim to fame is his list of diseases and disorders.
Thank you, Dr. Frances.
Here is a smoking-gun statement made by another prominent psychiatrist, on an episode of PBS’ Frontline series. The episode was: “Does ADHD Exist?”
PBS FRONTLINE INTERVIEWER: Skeptics say that there’s no biological marker—that it [ADHD] is the one condition out there where there is no blood test, and that no one knows what causes it.
BARKLEY (Dr. Russell Barkley, professor of psychiatry and neurology at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center): That’s tremendously naïve, and it shows a great deal of illiteracy about science and about the mental health professions. 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. [Emphasis added]
Without intending to, Dr. Barkley blows the whistle on his own profession.
So let’s take Dr. Barkley to school. Medical science, and disease-research in particular, rests on the notion that you can make a diagnosis backed up by lab tests. If you can’t produce lab tests, you’re spinning fantasies.
These fantasies might be hopeful, they might be “educated guesses,” they might be launched from traditional centers of learning, they might be backed up by billions of dollars of grant money…but they’re still fantasies.
If I said the moon was made of green cheese, even if I were a Harvard professor, sooner or later someone would ask me to produce a sample of moon rock to be tested for “cheese qualities.” I might begin to feel nervous, I might want to tap dance around the issue, but I would have to submit the rock to a lab.
Dr. Barkley employs a version of logical analysis in his statement to the PBS Frontline interviewer. Barkley is essentially saying, “There is no lab test for any mental disorder. But if a test were the standard of proof, we wouldn’t have science at all, and that would mean our whole profession rests on nothing—and that is absurd, so therefore a test doesn’t matter.”
That logic is no logic at all. Barkley is proving the case against himself. He just doesn’t want to admit it.

Close to 50 years ago, psychiatry was dying out as a profession. Fewer and fewer people wanted to see a psychiatrist for help, for talk therapy. All sorts of new therapies were popping up. The competition was leaving medical psychiatry in the dust.
As Dr. Peter Breggin describes it in his landmark book, Toxic Psychiatry, a deal was struck. Drug companies would bankroll psychiatry and rescue it. These companies would pour money into professional conferences, journals, research. In return, they wanted “science” that would promote mental disease as a biological fact, a gateway into the drugs. Everyone would win—except the patient.
So the studies were rolled out, and the list of mental disorders expanded. The FDA was in on the deal as well, as evidenced by their drug “safety” approvals, in the face of the obvious damage these drugs were doing.
So this is how we arrived at where we are. This was the plan, and it worked.
Under the cover story, it was all fraud all the time. Without much of a stretch, you could say psychiatry has been the most widespread profiling operation in the history of the human race. Its goal has been to bring humans everywhere into its system. It hardly matters which label a person is painted with, as long as it adds up to a diagnosis and a prescription of drugs.
And now, in the wake of the Aurora and Sandy Hook shootings, it matters even less who or how many people are labeled with mental disorders. The more the better, as far as government is concerned.
Just as in the old USSR, psychiatry becomes an instrument of oppression, a way to discredit any person the State wants to silence and destroy.
“…in the disputes between the East and West concerning the Russian opponents of the Soviet regime… [m]any dissidents went to lunatic asylums and were treated as mentally sick. Western doctors and the press accused Soviet doctors of being blind instruments of the regime and of having broken the solemn oath of their calling. The Russian doctors thought the West had gone mad in reproaching their behavior. For them, anyone who opposed such an efficient police power must be mentally disturbed. In their view, only those who had what Seneca called Libido morienti (the death wish) would dare to provoke the State. The Russian doctors were convinced that they were undertaking a humanitarian mission by placing the opponents of the regime in asylums and thereby reducing their aggression–the only hope for their survival. To reduce the outstanding to mediocrity was always a medical and human duty in a state where mediocrity had the better chance of survival.” — “Man: The Fallen Ape” by Branko Bokun

Dr. James Roger Brown (www.thesociologycenter.com) also did an expose on the pseudo-science called Psychiatry/Psychology. In his compendium of facts, he brought out that there are two main fields in Clinical Psychology. One deals with the actual physical aspects (like brain tumors, and other physical anomalies in the brain that might alter human behavior, and then there was the “Therapy” side of it, which he attributed to Organized Crime. I tend to think Racketeering and Trafficking in Humans is bigger business than ever gets reported by MSM, because they are the beneficiaries of this massive fraud. Good Blog!
Great post! Did you happen to see this announcement by the National Institute of Mental Health denouncing the new DSM V?http://www.nimh.nih.gov/about/director/2013/transforming-diagnosis.shtml
People are turned away from God and faith because “there’s no proof, no science in it” and are instead sent to these “professionals” who are basically purveyors of their own faith-based “medical practices”.
Another great article John. I love when you hone in on psychiatry. I work for a county that has a team of people (I’m on it) who evaluate people for 5150 hospitalization. I have told (for years!) a condensed version of your article to clients, parents, cops, teachers etc. I always say, “if you have insurance, you will get a (billable) diagnosis.” After all, the psychiatrist has to pay his bills, right? If you are uninsured, the county will usually provide you a diagnosis; particularly if you’ve been hospitalized. Billable (Axis I) diagnoses are, for example, Schizophrenia, Bipolar etc. AxII diagnoses – personality disorders, are not billable or treated with drugs. Sadly, family members, clients only know about the Axis I diagnoses that they have been given. These diagnoses are the “badge” they wear that excuses bad behavior. In my 7 years of doing this, what I mostly see is personality/substance abuse issues with a smattering of truly psychotic people. Parents, in particular, believe that medication and hospitalization are the only answer for their child’s problems. Their child could be anywhere from 18 to 59 years old! “He’s been bipolar for 30 years.” Then I get a history and he or she has not been on medication the last X amount of years and the person was diagnosed during a heavy meth/alcohol period. As I always say, all the psychiatrist has to do is DOCUMENT the patient’s statements. The substance abuse can be downplayed and the symptoms/client statements can be played up. “Presto, you are now bipolar.” No blood test and no hard science. If you’re having a bad day, you can get a diagnosis. By the way, having worked for the county for almost 10 years, you can actually see, via charting, a client’s diagnosis change from month to month! I’m an RN. I’ve never seen that with cancer. What a joke.
Even those who have held power in their families for a very long time have had since the beginning natural enemies in every generation. Psychiatry offers a way to finally nullify or rid themselves of these people by making the entire world a hostile environment. Easily done as these people themselves are usually outsiders and misfits and have been led to believe that of themselves.
The only way to avoid being labeled with one (or more) of the 297 different disorders is to never be subjected to a psychiatric assessment.
If you are assessed, you WILL BE FOUND to have a disorder of some kind.
There is not a living person that can be assessed and not be found to not have a disorder.
It’s so ridiculous that there are likely disorders that could be ascribed to a dead person…”this one seems to be very uncooperative, and lacks social awareness, better hit him with some chemicals!”
Let’s just give it some time, I’m sure the shrinks will be able to fabricate some mental disorders for the yet to be born and big pharma will supply the remedy….”this one seems to be suffering from some ‘pre-birth anxiousness’ we should hit him with some chemicals to calm him down”.
I wonder if big pharma will ever come up with a drug for “excessive greed”or “general disdain for humanity”. But the again, that would be anathema to themselves.
Thanks for the great research Jon.
Bingo. Not sure what lit the fire but you are on a roll. Preach it brother Jon. Great stuff.
You called it, Jon. http://news.yahoo.com/colorado-shootings-suspect-enter-insanity-plea-211825401.html
Mental illness stems from occultism terms used by Johann Weyer during the Inquisition period. Aren’t the “Church Doctors” and zealots still on their modern day Freudian archetypal witch hunts?
I left my wife over these issues. She is a shrink, and it was the best thing I have done in a while.
It is interesting how psychiatrists go on identifying our mental problems, most, if not all just give you drugs anyway. There is no more talking to find what is the problem, if any.
They have a list of diseases
and next to each one the drug he or she should recommend based on the advise of the drug company.
disease a…. take drug c
disease b… take drug L
etc.. etc.. etc…
I say Kids got ADHD? Eat lots of organic veggies and spend 8 hours outside just running around playing (if kids know how these days). Then…. Cured !
some drugs do work you know… the cure is you’re dead.
but hey your arthritis doesn’t bother you anymore! That will be $2,500 please. : )
You are a genius Jon.
psychiatric drugs are a joke
functioning citizens do not belong on this stuff !
Even a padded-cell neurologically sick patient may be better off avoiding this range of drugs.
People are just indoctrinated and naive. They trust this stuff. They repeat the same disinformation. They have ‘condition’ that describes their range of emotions. It’s like horoscope stuff, only it forces the brain and body to change in attempt to balance, and it is also toxic.
God forbid you have poor self control, poor emotional discipline, or actual real life problems that cause your distress in a completely logical way. The solution is not these over-prescribed drugs.
It’s sick how most of them say they need 2 weeks to work. Sure… after 2 weeks your brain chemistry has radically tried to adapt to this imbalance of chemicals, and you now go into withdrawal syndrome without your drug. Just another thing were individuals self-empowerment is more important than the health of the populace. Acceptable level of side-effects, deaths and ruined lives … so long as the billions of profits keep rolling in.
Drugs are just a cop out. People need to realize that we all have “disorders”. It’s called sin and its been around since Adam & Eve in the garden of Eden. The only One who can fix this is Jesus, when we repent & believe on Him who makes all things new.
it’s all gearing up to constant intervention

thank you for your continued SPOT ON reporting
The founder of the Canadian, American and World Psychiatric Associations was Dr. Ewen Cameron of the MKUltra program. Despite being about as solicitous of his ‘patients” health as Dr. Josef Mengele, he is still listed by McGill University as one of its historical luminaries. Everyone should be aware of this history.
This Psychiatric “Missing Link” is NORMAL ADRENALINE,
they have been saying for decades, that they are “GETTING CLOSER EVERYDAY” to finding their mystically elusive missing chemical in their “Chemical Imbalance Theory”…
This significance and ramifications are beyond most of our comprehensions, they have known this for centuries, if not thousands of years; called Normal Fight or Flight/with-drawl REACTIONS, are magically now Abnormal Mania or Depression SYMPTOMS, just like they don’t use the laymen term Adrenaline, instead speaking in Greek and using the Identical word Epinephrine…
TSA is rolling out a device that detects drugs, gun powder residue and YUP YOU GUESSED IT; – ADRENALINE-
Excellent analysis… but don’t stop at psychiatry. Many other diagnoses (cancer, HIV to name two) utilize diagnostic technologies that do not detect the diseases they ostensibly identify.
But beyond that, should we really trust a pharmaceutical industry that has paid, since 2009, $10 BILLION to settle thousands of criminal and civil complaints related to the illegal marketing of drugs and devices that kill or injure 2-4 million Americans annually?
I fully expect that, in 100 years, psychiatrists and virologists will find their rightful place in the seedy corners of strip malls among tattoo parlors, astrologers, palm and tarot card readers. Our progeny will wonder about our backwardness.
“It’s all bullshit.” Let me say that Jon you are right on with all this analysis, by giving to the readers a bit of an education on how all this works. Like OMSJ said, it doesn’t just stop with mental disorders. The way banks work is bullshit. The way war works is bullshit. Like the way mental disorders are made up, so is the wy education is set up. They just tell people what to know, not how to use tools, the mind, to know! Which is why these details slip through the grasp of basically everyone. People like to just think politicians lie OCCASSIONALLY. But what about all the businesses that are associated with politics, associated with deception, with marketing and creating this confusing matrix! It’s not that difficult if everyone would just take the time to simplify their lives and work on personal responsibility, instead of trying to let everyone else diagnose and “cure” their diseases!
Reblogged this on afzz1.
My pastor said it best many years ago when he stated, “Psychology is of the devil.” And you just watch, they’ll use it to confiscate firearms without any proof of anything and ignorant people will just stand by mentally defenseless to address the propaganda of psychology and gun control.
Wonderful article. Thank you. Dr. Thomas Szasz spent his life time trying to bring these ideas before the public. He died last year at age 92. He was writing and speaking up to the very end. He published many many books on the topic, my favorites are The Myth of Mental Illness and Schizophrenia: The Sacred Symbol of Psychiatry. There are some great YouTube videos of him speaking.
An interesting piece of the puzzle I have run into recently. Child Protective Services has been accused of kidnapping children from families and adopting them out to foster parents for cash bonuses [from the federal government] or intimidating parents into placing their children on Ritalin and other psychotropic medications with no recourse/arbitration mechanism for the parents. Who would think CPS would have an interest in placing children on drugs?! But as the age old adage goes, ‘Follow the money, honey.’
http://www.secretsofthefed.com/cps-steals-children-for-profit-video/
The video does not elaborate on the Big Pharma/Ritalin/etc. link between the CPS but there clearly seems to exist a plausible connection between the two. CPS perhaps is just another member of that FDA/Big Pharma/Big Med/Obamacare/etc. ecosystem that plays its role to benefit the other members while likewise benefitting from them in return for its services while using children it is supposed to protect merely as an expendable resource to ensure its own existence and well-being.
I have also wondered for a long time why Russia’s orphanage system keeps Russia’s orphans in such squalid conditions and unsatisfactory care while staunchly resisting any foster care/adoption efforts, prompting local churches and missions to reach out to churches, organizations and individuals abroad, Including the US, for funds to somewhat alleviate the human suffering of children in those orphanages. Charity is admirable, however, my dilemma concerned the apparent lack of attention from the Russian federal government to the sorry state of its system of orphanages when Russia clearly had the funds to spare especially during the oil boom years. The answer to my question came from a video of an investigation by an independent investigative Russian journalist. The basic gist was that Russia’s federal government allocates ample funds in the annual budget to support the orphanage system but a lion’s share of those funds ends up in the pockets of the bureaucrats down the food chain so whatever reaches the orphans barely keeps them alive. The funding depends on the number of orphans the system officially supports, hence, the strong efforts against adoption and placing those children in foster families.
Do u know if there is an adult protective services for adults being prescribed psychiatric drugs for over 20 years? Are there any advocates to assist in the removal of such drugs? My mother had a mental breakdown almost 30 years ago and has been prescribed 30mg seroquel for over 25 years. How does this profile change the views or understanding of psychiatry? Tell me is there anybody monitoring these diagnosis either via hospital wc pi private cases? do they just keep sending a generic diagnosis? These r the types of psychiatrist that conclude liars of life let alone medicine.
You are absolutely correct……there is no such thing as a mental disorder. They made it all up to create a huge cash cow( $$$$$$$$$) crony capitalistic racket and to keep everyone herded to tribal group think mentality.
Jung was correct…..The only true mental disorder is called Neurosis.
effects of neurosis can involve:
…anxiety, sadness or depression, anger, irritability, mental confusion, low sense of self-worth, etc., behavioral symptoms such as phobic avoidance, vigilance, impulsive and compulsive acts, lethargy, etc., cognitive problems such as unpleasant or disturbing thoughts, repetition of thoughts and obsession, habitual fantasizing, negativity and cynicism, etc. Inter-personally, neurosis involves dependency, aggressiveness, perfectionism, schizoid isolation, socio-culturally inappropriate behaviors, etc
All these symptoms are mere alarm signals that something isn’t right in the social environment and trying to conform to this fictitious environment only makes it worse. They even design the drugs in psychiatry to make symptoms worse coming off the meds than what you originally went in for. Cha Ching $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
….Id be worried if you didn’t experience these symptoms of neurosis considering the world we live in today. The symptoms are basically normal responses to abnormal environment and whats considered social norms.
The reason I can see it so clearly is because I haven’t been intimidated by herd mentality or dumbed down by the educational system.That applies to Harvard Yale Duke Stanford Penn State and MIT as well.
i’m brazilian and forced to medication because of diagnosis of schizophrenia. i never had any halucination
now i have been forced to more heavy medication only because i’m mgtow going ghost, i prefer to be alone, not making part of this system dominated by psycho, so the ugly psichiatrist woman is forcing me to heavy medication and i have the chance to spend a time in mental nospital too, only because i’m alone and i dont accept the dominance of the psychos in social life. my life is turning to a total nightmare.
sorry to hear.

The Link below is written and published by the Human Genome Project Information Website. The two key sentences in this website are: “Yet even here there have been no major breakthroughs, no clearly identified genes that geneticists can tie to disease. The search for genes associated with characteristics such as sexual preference and basic personality traits has been even more frustrating.”
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?hl=en&q=cache:4BiZPKm7cwYJ:http://moodle.wpcp.org/pluginfile.php/15851/mod_resource/content/0/AP_Psych_period_7_ch_3-_rocio_y_evy.htm%2Byet+there+are+no+clearly+identified+genes+that+geneticists+can+tie+to+diseases&gbv=2&&ct=clnk
Now let’s move onto the next website. And I thank Dr. Jay Joseph for his extensive research behind publishing his factual article, “THE CRUMBLING PILLARS OF BEHAVIORAL GENETICS,”
http://www.councilforresponsiblegenetics.org/genewatch/GeneWatchPage.aspx?pageId=384
That’s it. Psychiatrists have lied to the public for decades and the DSM is continuously amended with those lies, respectively. The argument psychiatrists have proposed is that chemical imbalances and behaviors are influenced through predetermined genetic expressive traits that by the two informative websites above do not exist and are nowhere to be identified scientifically, clinically, medically, in vitro, in vivo, etc, etc. No genes have been identified, period.
What we are left with is nothing more than a consortium of liars, calling themselves medical doctors that take notes and convert those notes to toxic prescription drugs that wreak havoc on the human body following ingestion. There is a reference for those drugs, and that reference is the “PDR” (Physician’s Desk Reference). The description for the “Clinical Pharmacology” in the PDR under any, and I repeat with tremendous emphasis, any of those drugs is also “Unknown.”
There is the evidence that proves the fact that Psychiatrists are nothing but deceptive liars, along with the Food and Drug Administration and the Pharmaceutical companies that manufacture the referenced poisions. In other words not one of them know anything about their bullshit stories that they claim to be so knowledgeable about through their years of alleged medical studies that they are grandiose about, and completely delusional in their recklessly wanton psychotic lies. To argue, “because a gene isn’t recognized, doesn’t invalidate it proposes the same argument for objective medical lab tests that also lack any confirmatory result. And yet these results originate directly from the lab.
“Occam’s Razor” states the simplest answer is often correct. And the correct answer based on the above findings simplify that psychiatrists that hold to the genetic/chemical predisposition and predetermination in the reductionist argument are deliberate profligate liars preying on innocent victims without any objective proof to substantiate their intrusions. The current fact is that applied scientific research and laboratory analyses resulted in nothing to support or substantiate the psychiatric claims. The end result is a widespread fraudulent practice, a complacent government and the needless victimization of innocent people that are subjugated by treasonous psychiatric iatrogenics. Psychiatrists holding to the Genetic/Chemical model are nothing but criminals, con artists, frauds and as Dr. Frances admitted, “bullshit artists.”
Last but not least, seek ways of improving your own lifestyle to build self-esteem and confidence in yourself. And the only way that you can accomplish this is being yourself and doing the things that make you happy. Nobody else can do this for you. It is your life and you deserve to live to the best of your potentials and abilities. It all comes from you. All you need to do is try and keep trying and never give up on yourself. And never give yourself over to someone who doesn’t know you.
Reclaim your life and live your life. It is your precious life and you must respect your precious life to be happy. And respecting your life means to protect and safeguard yourself and to make yourself comfortable, from the moment that you wake up and go to sleep, every single day. You must have self respect, even if it means being all alone. There is nothing wrong with that. Look at the stars, the trees, the birds and the animals. See how beautiful that the natural world is. And see how beautiful the natural world is with you living in the world. It all comes from you. Don’t drink any alcoholic beverages, don’t do any drugs, eat lots of fruits and vegetables and drink lots of water. Enjoy your life and don’t let anyone take your enjoyment away from you. Have self respect and faith in yourself. You can do anything that you want to do as long as you try. Just keep trying and don’t worry about getting it right the first time. It takes practice. And “practice makes perfect.” Lots of fruits, vegetables and water. Best regards.
The problem is that people who have conceived ‘guilt/shame’, along with feeding the inferior self; use labels as a tool, because guilt/shame, and the inferior self, shifts the blame and creates defense mechanisms. I discovered this from the people that have conceived these lies: depression, schizophrenia, bipolar, and borderline personality. They have all admitted to having guilt and shame, and ‘fear of embarrassment’. When you talk about your personal problems, and you talk with people on that intimate level; you talk with people that are at your level. Psychologist are equal to their client, and the client is equal to them. They are living in a denial. The pharmaceutical companies are gladly able to use them because denial needs excuses: depression, bipolar, schizophrenia etc. And so does pharmaceutical companies. Yes, those excuses are also the pharmaceutical companies excuse, to dish out pills. But, many people in the general population have guilt shame and a sense of being inferior and they need an excuse. It’s a full circle, so to speak.
Kid/teen conceives one or more of these: approval problem, guilt/shame, ‘fear of humility’ and pride. They need mass amounts of denial material: DSM, MH forums, MH articles etc. They pursue the ultimate exposure, but think it’s a cover – MH career. They validate themselves through their client. The psychologist’s need for validation inadvertently comments the Drug industry’s need for an excuse and validation.
It is beyond doubt that there is no signature genetic inheritance with any family tree; just about 75% of the population has self conceived these self reflective projections: depression, bipolar, schizophrenia etc. It’s just in EVERY humans capacity to be able to make choice, and one can choose to become ill willed with ‘guilt and shame’ and a sense of being ‘inferior’, with of ‘fear humility’, and a choice to wallow in Pride and Denial.. Yes, it’s expression is redundant vague and self reflective impressions – it’s the ‘art’ of self deception.
It’s beyond doubt that there is no chemical balance problem. It’s common sense; hormones and chemicals serve the purpose of aiding the body to adapt according to the environment. Chemicals and hormones are designed to be constantly changing, in respects to what you’re doing, thinking, perceiving and experiencing in the environment. There is no set balance and there will never be. Ah yeah, and we have the fact that millions of people have chosen an MH label, and those millions never took any clinical test! If there was any true physical cause, you would not be able to get a label without a clinical test..So in other words, you would not be able to choose a label.

I must not hide the fact that the majority of the ones that have admitted this to me (guilt shame and fear of humility etc.), have repeatedly mentioned that their label is ‘guilt and shame’. So it is likely that once they have used the label, and proclaim themselves to have this label; that its the trap that they put themselves in, and they have also mentioned rambling thoughts that they are a liar, a hypocrite and a fake.
Mental disease implies a problem with one’s thinking; after lab tests and xray (or the like) have determined there is no physical abnormality that causes the impaired thinking, the only alternative is to give up lying and come to a knowledge of truth. Truth sets one free from all myriads of disorders, particularly all mental disorders.
The justification of labeling “mental illness” has no bearing on truth or lies, although thought impairments and processes result from learned beliefs, orientation, habits, and behavioral conditioning – “brainwashing.” Just yesterday I was talking to my dad and explaining to him how society has been conditioned to believe that working and living a “9 to 5” job is an acceptable form of social behavior. This conditioning is a direct result of a conditioned rewarding system. For example, if you work you get paid — a reward. If you don’t work you don’t get paid – no reward. So human thinking is conditioned through emotional control, founded by a belief of reinforcement. Now working a “9 to 5,” let’s call it a job for short, is just one example of a conditioned behavior. The majority of people tend to like having a lot of money, because money affords them to buy things, for whatever reason, clothes, food cars, cell phones and other basic necessities and tangible goods. And what they like to have is associated with the ammount of money that can afford them. No money no things? Right?
When Pavlov conditioned the dog to respond to the bell the dog associated the bell to a piece of meat and came running to get it. But after conditioning the dog to associate the sound of bell with meat Pavlov took away the meat and rang the bell again. And this time he proved that the dog came to get the meat because he heard the bell. The Dog heard a bell and thought he’s getting meat when it sounded. And that’s exactly what happened. In other words he brainwashed the dog.
BF Skinner did the same thing with Pigeons and the Pigeons made associations in a box to receive food and started behaving to be rewarded food.
When the results of these experiments got out of control the premise of the government was to control society’s behavior through a rewarding and punishing system. The Government Brainwashed the entire population with the belief of earning rewards for behaving a certain way. The Government did this to make you work for itself under the impression of a “Productive Society.” You own your house right? You believe this Bull Shit too right? The truth is that the bank owns your house. You pay the bank to let you stay there. And even if you pay the bank off you get stuck with never ending property taxes. If you pay the tax you a receive the reward of staying in the house so the Fking IRS doesn’t come knocking on the door that you paid for. Do you get the picture. They’ll punish you for not behaving the way they brain washed you. They use scare tactics to make you slave for them.
So let me ask you a question about this theory you have about giving up lying and coming to a knowledge of truth. I just informed you of a truth.
Now I’ll ask you this, are you working to financially support their deceptive lies to make you do what they want? Or are you working to financially support yourself to do what you want, without their intrusions and acting on your own free will without any fear of being punished?
In other words can you freely tell the government and the IRS to Fluck Off ! Or are you afraid of them, because they put some garbage into your mind that you can’t say that or you’ll be punished?
Now I’ll ask you two most important questions of all of this. Why the fluck are you paying a government that’s lying to you if you are knowledgeable in truth, rather than teaching the government about this knowledge in truth?
The second question is if your paying the government scum of this universe to control you, are you not then financing the ones who are lying to you and controlling you with lies?
You’re brainwashed, accept this. You’ve been sensitized and blinded to the reality of yourself and the things that you want to do because you are talking about truth – that is only possible because you know about the lies and you don’t like it. You’ve been transformed and programmed into a robot doing everything that the government commands you to do and yet you seek truth from the liars who are defrauding and controlling you in a blinding campaign to keep you insecure and in fear of not being able to survive. And while they listen in on you’re cell phones and store everything that you do over the internet you actually believe that you learned in the truth. They’re making sure that you are kept far away from the truth of their crimes against you and everyone else that they screwed over. The truth is that you are paying the government to lie to you. And the more you pay them the more you reinforce them to keep doing this to others for thousands of years to come. They were brainwashed to associate controlling you so they can get their reward. And believe it or not you are rewarding them by being their robot.

If this country was founded on truthful principles I wouldn’t have to write on this forum. The Truth is in front of everyone’s faces. Go stand in the city at three o’clock in the morning and wait there until nine o’clock in the morning on a “working” weekday. I’ll bet you that you will begin to see people rushing all over the place at nine o’clock that you didn’t see at three o’clock. You know why?
They want the reward that they are conditioned to believe for positive reinforcement. They’re blinded brainwashed robots. And they will continue to be robots, unless something desensitizes them and wakes them up to the truth that the government conditioned their minds to behave this way. The whole flucking system is a lie and they’re all running around to pay the puppet masters at the top of the pyramid. Do you actually think Bernie Madoff was the worst. Go to the city from three o’clock in the morning to nine o’clock in the morning and explain to me why suddenly people appeared seemingly rushing around, bumping into each other and not giving two shits about their dignity. And then we’ll talk about the truth. Open your eyes and start looking around you from a distance and tell me what you see truth or lies. Are you free or does the Government have you as a captive. When you pay the government I want you to look up “Stockholm syndrome.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome Even though they try to scare the shit out of you, you find yourself paying them to feel the comfort of them leaving you alone. Go stand in the city and look at the people. Tell me how many mentally ill people you see, who think they’re acting normally, because they’re brainwashed. And don’t be afraid to tell me the truth.

clearly communicated, raffi. i agree fully. thanks.
I agree. no such thing as a mental disorder. more like an excuse that can be generically placed in this category of disorder to assist pharma, lobbyist, drs. of all fields and or a fallback i.e. generic label of pay check guarantee psychiatry also accredited to these categories of illness? Such as Jet lag, Stockholms syndrome, anorexia to start with a few of over 250 disorders. Insane! I do believe that some fields and hats that are worn are truly disabled mentally, however the understanding of right and wrong, fight or flight, and making the right choices are conditions and understanding we were taught since infancy. Our conditioning and teachings are a hard concept to accept, being the parents or offsprings or siblings of these types of people. Obviously I’m not a doctor or nurse of any sort, however as an individual living and walking to the experience of people as a.socialite, public servant, volunteer days to day in a revolving world, I am confident to call myself an expert to my perspectives and view. I believe substance abuse/addiction weigh heavy in the medical field. These are the individuals who truly need assistance both behaviorally and mentally. These are the areas in which liars become liars. The addict and or abuser, unable to be truthful about self due to the social outlook and fear of being viewed critically. This is huge in the release of inmates into society. Them not knowing how to operate in today’s society.
With this idea, hand in hand with humiliation and lack of self esteem is more detrimental than any of the mental disorders associated with this field. I walked with many and I’ve see the same issues in the drug addicted human, over and over. Had they just believed in themselves.
Resolution A self esteem course prerequired before leaving middle school. A course in self-esteem before entering into highschool.
A course constructed to the teachings of positiveiking oneself, that it’s ok to just say No. A reinforcement for student on their choices and the paths they which choose.
Highlighting and opening avenues of redemption and self worth, and respect for others. It’s more than a health class , it’s a class that builds belief and responses opposed to misconceptions and reactions of addiction that is the major factor to understanding the mentally disabled. A self esteem course that reconditions the student and comforts their despair amongst friends and adults. Its reprogramming the thought process especially to the abolishment of I can’t replies or I’m not attractive enough for him or her, worse yet the ok sure I’ll try it.
For teachings of the students not to succumb to peer pressure. Allowing the student not to afraid to tell the truth. To become confident in their choices in themselves.
I do believe that mental disorders are excuses and lies by individuals who are lazy and not willing to try. Lies by drs. who just play the game to get their pay. I know one thing for sure, is that u can lead the horse to water but u can’t make them drink.
I hope this was an appropriate response to the given essay by Dr. John and the reply of the many to this topic
