bring psychiatry under the law

This site (and magazine) routinely exposes psychiatry and similar infringements of public rights.

 

In 1962, a Hollywood film based on Richard Condon’s novel had shown an American soldier captured in the Korean War being brainwashed by the Chinese in Manchuria, and sent back to America—where he waits, unknowingly, as an on-command killer. His ultimate target: a presidential candidate.

The concept had consumed Western intelligence agencies during the MK ULTRA era. For West and Sargant it remained a near-obsession.

Using his highly placed connections to the American drug industry, Sargant’s arsenal of mind-altering drugs was unequalled in Britain. He was the first to treat—depending on the definition of “treatment"—patients with Thorazine, Stelazine and Mellaril; anti-depressants like Elavil and Tofranil; anti-manics like lithium carbonate. He gave them in combinations.

Side effects of Ritalin use: Its severest effects include nervousness, insomnia, pulse changes and heart problems. In June 2005, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned that Ritalin and its sister drugs may cause visual hallucinations, suicidal thoughts, psychotic behavior, as well as aggression or violent behavior. Hazards multiply as users up their quantity, grind and snort it, liquefy or inject it, and use it along with ecstasy and other drugs. Abuse in larger doses puts stress on the heart, which can be fatal, and injection causes serious damage to the lungs and eyes.

I am not against Scientology... I am an athiest and believe all religions are equally silly... I do believe however that this is an issue that a person should DEFINATELY hear both sides of before making an important/LIFE THREATENING decision like going off meds. Maybe you should, maybe you shouldn't. I don't know... I DO KNOW that you need to make an educated decision.
