Ex Pharma Sales Rep speaks the truth - Pharma doesn't want to cure you

[gjohnsonvp]

Duh

[scottbomb72]

Sorry, but this lady is full of shit.

[disisdkat]

@scottbomb72 Why is that Scott? Any business's primary goal is to stay in business. I know a medical research and I do research - Both of us know that medical research is poorly done. What do you object to in what she says? You are against educating yourself on your health and how to stay healthy? Many people react badly to the foods we eat in modern (agricultural) society and their health vastly improves when they find what foods they react poorly to.

[ellaannaleo]

Anti-depressions meds make me CRAZY, anxiety cut myself, paranoid, weight gain, no libido and I'm suppose to be HAPPY? BS. And they just keep handing it over and over even after I explain. We are human guinie pigs face it and anyone who believes differently is very niave or in denial. I have been through enough for 10 people I'm 43!

[eFxLight]

My father cannot get off of prozac. If he tries to quit he has horrible nightmares, and thoughts of suicide. Thanks big pharma for helping my dad. :[[[[[[ He is a victim of these kinds of practices that Gwen is warning us about. I know, trust me. Research and learn about what the doctor recommends, don't just blindly swallow.

[MedicalDeathIndustry]

death by prescription drugs is number one cause in the united states, google: death by medicine

[CanabinoidAndroid]

mass murder is no accident... big pharma medical death industry is part of depopulation program because they want only 500 million people on the planet - more are not needed as slaves - it is a neo-malthusian ideology put in place by the club of rome decades ago... and if you really think that's wacko conspiracy stuff and unlikely just look at history, especially german history

[1979john1979]

I have fallen to addiction by way of a few different substances throughout my life so far. And one that was prescribed to me after i had just gotten a divorce. I thought that there was something wrong with me so i went to the doctor which i never do by the way and. First he complimented me on the insight i had with in to myself and the next very thing was a recommendation to fluoxetine the new prozac at the time. With in the month saw that it was just a fix to its own problem just like cigarets

[kikiboo43]

STOP endangering peoples lives to promote your book. The 'studies' you quote can so easily be countered by tens more to the contrary... realize YOU have a moral responsibility to people and the 'freedom of speech' cloak you hide under with your book will not give your conscience the repentance needed for the lives you endanger or 'take' by providing information like this.

No offence... I just find this irresponsible. IMHO. (I suspect you will delete this comment as well.) Merry Christmas, <3

[ellaannaleo]

Angry, you need MEDICATION!!!!

[kikiboo43]

@ellaannaleo promotion of this sort is just as irresponsible to the uneducated masses as promoting a pharmaceutical or holistic medicine without properly researching it for the ailment. And btw - who, exactly, is angry (hint:using all the exclamation marks here.... hmmmm?)

:)

Here's a funny one (laughter, the best medicine): High Blood pressure sufferers: Make an incision in your left or right wrist and bleed yourself for several hours, reducing the pressure in your veins. :)))

~peace.

[kikiboo43]

Just because your niece commited suicide Gwen, is no reason to knock all Pharmaceuticals. My uncle committed suicide because he did NOT take his meds... so there you go.

[watchWorld100]

@kikiboo43 even if your uncle did take his med he will still commit suicide. drugs are not effective for mental or emotional illness.

[kikiboo43]

@watchWorld100 What, seriously, would you know about it? You have no idea what you're talking about.

[ucanleaveyourhaton]

@kikiboo43 Is there really only one treatment choice available for those with illness ?Were pharmaceutical meds the only choice your uncle had, to alleviate his suffering ? Seems like a very narrow judgement you are making - many alternate. therapies treat depression, anxiety, and serious mental illness - Why do people fail to see and believe that they have a choice ? Does big pharma really brainwash us that much ?

[kikiboo43]

@ucanleaveyourhaton There is a time and place for all kinds of therapy. My personal belief is that if you can use alternate therapy, GREAT!! By all means! (I use it myself) That said, if there is no relief, there is nothing wrong with responsible pharmaceutical treatment. Get a GOOD doctor, and do your homework. That's my 2 cents.

[kikiboo43]

@ucanleaveyourhaton Very serious mental illness :'((( So very, very sad.

[kikiboo43]

Sales Reps are SALESpersons... Physicians are DOCTORS... accredited professionals.

Do your research, get a good doctor. He or She will take you on the correct path. It's the doctor that gives you the drugs, not the Pharmaceutical company. Make sure they are doing their job.

[ellaannaleo]

@kikiboo43 well that would be great if we weren't mostly all sheep who blindly take whatever they say we need. Its dangerous and downright suicidal to take everything they precribe, I would be dead if I had.

[ucanleaveyourhaton]

@kikiboo43 rubbish!! - the reps educate the doctors about all pharma drugs when they do their regular drug peddling at surgeries - what doctors know about drugs is SFA !! Don't believe me ? Go and ask a doctor about any drug on the market, and get him to explain how it works etc ... I've never gotten a logical answer from any doctor.

[kikiboo43]

Seriously? There are a million 'studies' out there... I can find 'proof' for anything.

Your speech is conjecture... as someone who has worked in R & D, product formulation, QA and Clinical Studies... I find your comments simplistic, bordering on offensive. Pharmaceutical Sales is the dirty end of the industry... its your JOB to sell these drugs... it's the job of the Physician to read the studies and make their professional conclusion.

[ucanleaveyourhaton]

@kikiboo43 ummm, and what physician on this planet would read studies, or even take an interest in the drugs he doles out to all the masses ? I've never ever met such a doctor.

[kikiboo43]

@ucanleaveyourhaton MINE. :)))

Anita Moorjani discovered what was the cause of her cancer during NDE/after that she healed in 4days.

[NunyaBiznez2010]

Love it. She should have talked about the vaccination scam too.

[o4o29o1967]

@NunyaBiznez2010 I am scared to death of immunizations!! The occurrence of Autism is up to the point of 1 in 160 children are born with it!!

[Chopsstix]

@o4o29o1967 have you heard of Dioxin in diapers, tampons, pads, and other material that is bleached. Its the by product of bleaching and so far its been linked to several "illnesses". even autism.

[michealjohnedmondson]

The secret is raw foods and exercise.

[julesrules65]

this is news? We already know they do not want to CURE ANYTHING

[sanchazer]

it's Alzheimer's not "all-timers".. if she doesn't know that much, how credible is she really?

[Lesrevesdhiver]

hmm, ask your doctor if "get your butt off the couch" is right for you...

Well, it is no secret that exercise is healthy and inexpensive (just the cost of whatever gym or equipment if needed) but NOoOoOo, people don't like that idea.

[apell711]

This is why I don't take medicine - famous last words? XD

[Samadhiatman500]

I wish I never would have been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Now I am without a gland and have to take meds, and have follow-up for my whole life. Not to mention the other "so-called" illnesses I had that were supposedly regulated with medication. Whatever.

[jsua331]

If these medications are no more effective than placebo or sugar pills, then why are there disclaimers stating that possible side effects could include diarrhea, headaches, nausea, accelerated heart rate, vomiting, bleeding of the anus, or even death?

I am in no way supporting the pharma industry. I ,in fact, despise them for this, but if there isn't anything in the pills to help, why is there so much in the pills to hurt? Is that just a marketing tactic?

[VATICANCREATEDISLAM]

for anyone interested in cancer treatments check out- dr burzynski: cancer is serious business!! the world has been set up to fuel our fears, egos and insecurities.. lets think beyond them and evolve/grow up!! check out- zeitgeist: the federal reserve, also- the esoteric agenda.. all on yt.. get your head round all that. and lets create a better world:)

[TheUndertakerSaysRIP]

so true... there are alternative choices guys...

[CRAZYHORSE091]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for SHARING THIS VIDEO!!!!!! We Need MORE People Like THIS WOMAN to SPEAK OUT! Think of the BABIES and CHILDREN Also!

[MrSilencieusement]

Thank you very much.

[rkkl80]

The video is good, however, I am wondering why it took her 15 years to have a conscience.

[Tarasepp]

Video's like this need million's of views, I am really sad that there are videos on youtube that have retards running around having millions of views but when it comes to our well being these videos slip through the cracks every time. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. People need to wake the fuck up and think. This is the reason I do not go to the doctor.

[ingrata74]

@deppressed1 SO TRUE! Hang in there! <3

[fredmagic09]

this is nothing new. its all about the money.

[sioux5910]

@ctimson50 - you're not dead because apparently some greater power decided to let you hang around so you can go on the internet and name call. There isn't any other explanation. You're not dead YET... but you will be. Good luck with those herbs. And don't call me your mother. Moron.

[ctimson50]

@sioux5910 I would never dream of calling you my mother. Mothers care about people. You obviously don't. I'm not dead because I went to a more natural way of life that does work. Yeah, I know it flies in the face of the profit margin of the pharmaceutical companies that don't care about people. Weird huh? For the record, it has been over 22 years since I got of the chemicals and I'm healthier now that I ever have been. Explain that. I know many others in the same way. Go figure.

[ellaannaleo]

@sioux5910 hey angry none of us are getting out of here alive! Its called QUALITY OF LIFE! You must have A LOT of stock in those companies

[iddicted]

pretty much like how antivirus companies make virus and trojans so you keep renewing your membership. though not all drugs are bad... antibiotics work you cant say that they are trying to pull you in because they have specific duration to take them. i think this mainly refers to ppl with psychological disorders (anxiety/depression/mental diseases) cause there is no way to cure them just suppression

[rebekah1230]

I'm a pharmacist and listen to people complain about how many medications they take and how much they cost. You always have the option Not to take them. But, Noooo instead everyone wants government healthcare, instead. People survived without all the miracle drugs hundreds of years ago, just not as long.

[Artist1974CH]

@rebekah1230 Quit your job.

[ellaannaleo]

@Artist1974CH AMEN TO THAT, Nice to represent a caring knowledgable person but in reality is a uncompassionate miserable person who wants you the same. It is SICK for a civiilized nation with the means to do so, NOT care for others on some level. Its not US and THEM we're in this together like it or not! Who thinks its OKAY for someone to PROFIT from death and suffering?

[ellaannaleo]

@rebekah1230 Sometimes the option is to be miserable and suffering in pain and dying. Most of the GOOD medcation IS dirived from a root or herb. They have just gone amuch and put eveything under the sun in them like cigs and we just nod and open up. Have you suffered with nerve pain or had your abdomen reconstruction, guts splayed out on table like midevil torture and said nah, I;d rather lay here wanting to die then take something that helps and gives you back LIFE or quality of it.

[ellaannaleo]

@rebekah1230 You think we WANT to to take this crap and then the people are clueless( b/c you are) of what they are ingetsingSounds like you take no meds and maybe you should Ms. bad attitude about customers but does the job anyway? What does that say abouyt YOU you're miserable owned by a corperation that cares nothing for you (just like you to your customers) and it ticklesdown on the sick and vulnerable.

[ellaannaleo]

@ellaannaleo Nice going, good job, I commend your abilty to see beyond your limited life experiences.! Plus, I wait an hour for meds while you all sell rigs to junkies (which I believe in but you swear they have to show are card. BS). Explain that to my kid, umm, sounds like a personal problem to me. Jaded makes for narrow meaness and unkind broad judgemental stereo typing biggots. Just like the Corperation and Pill Companies. THEY OWN US AND KNOW IT.

[ellaannaleo]

[stockmarketimplode]

Thank you!

[sioux5910]

Horse Crap! This is a woman who got downsized out and cleverly found a way to generate income for herself. If you got diagnosed with cancer Gwen, would you refuse chemotherapy in favor of exercise and nutrition? I think not. This is simply appalling. You should be ashamed of yourself. You're no better than the industry you assault. You're gaining by creating and capitalizing on Orwellian fears. And furthermore, it's not the pharma industry's job to cure disease. It's the government's.

[DrShitandStank]

@sioux5910 Did Pharma paid you to say this?

[TeenCretin]

@DrShitandStank FUCK OFF ASSHOLE

[trudypetersen]

@sioux5910 If you really think it's the government's job to keep you well you are in for a rude awakening! Our government allows thing that are killing us!  Cancer drugs are BIG business! Follow the money! In this day in age, there is a wealth of info on the internet - those interested can find the truth! I have a doctor of Pharmacology business associate who will validate everything this woman is saying!

[ellaannaleo]

@trudypetersen Yeah and then Corperations take out life insurance policies on workers, whats next?

[TheBlondetwit]

@sioux5910 I had stage 3 breast cancer. I DID NOT participate in surgery, chemo or radiation. I am 9 years out now and cancer free. YES, I chose a lifestyle change, and it made a positive difference in more than just cancer.

[ctimson50]

@sioux5910 Actually, I would absolutely refuse chemo and all other forms of radiation and poisons due to experience! I've was diagnosed with cancer in 1989. For a time I took your foolish remedies until I was so sick I almost wanted to die. I was given months (NOT years) to live. I decided to die at home. When I left the hospital I also decided to take some holistic remedies to ease the pain. IF Gwen is wrong, why am I alive, moron? Get your head out of the sand and face the truth!

[Greanbeens]

@ctimson50 How do you know it wasn't the chemo that worked and you taking the holistic remedies was just good timing?

[ctimson50]

@Greanbeens Because I AM still alive more than 22 years after all the "experts" said I would be dead! The point still remains the same; the pharmaceutical companies couldn't give a rat's ass whether you live or die. They only care about their profit margin! Answer me this: why, in the last 30 years, has there been such a dramatic INCREASE in cancers, and deaths from cancer, and the increase of over the counter meds produced by the pharmaceutical companies? Think there's no relation? Think again

[o4o29o1967]

@ctimson50 Glad you are still alive! :)



[ctimson50]

@o4o29o1967 Thank you! So am I! But I thank God and nature, NOT the docs and pharma companies! Glad you're still alive also! Have a great day! :D

[mikeyv311]

@sioux5910 i saw a genuine woman speaking from her heart about the truth of psychiatric medications and how they are mis-used. By listening to hear this one time, I would bet you EVERY penny I have ever earned in my life that she would choose exercise over chemotherapy. To me the appalling, thing is, you seem to be very well-read, but not very aware of the truths that are indeed causing the demise of our people, and Country. Take a step back for a bit and observe. You JUST might be surprised!

[dtheronster]

@sioux5910, Better to make money by doing good than by doing bad. I WOULD refuse chemo, because it's a barbaric, philosophically absurd treatment that kills ALL cells in your body ... not smart, not intuitive, not a good idea. It is the DOCTORS that do the fear mongering. They make you think that cancer in a mysterious, incurable disease. NOT TRUE AT ALL. And why do you think it's the government's job to cure diseases, when they would only call on big pharma to do the work? THINK.

[DareToAttemptThought]

Anyone with a T1 diabetic in the family knows big pharma isn't going to heal them. They're just another cash cow.

[cpmondello]

between 90 and 100 thousand people a year in the USA die in hospitals because of medical error, that could of simply been avoided with a few things: less hours forced to work, more medical staff, more education, washing hands between patients, better health care insurance, nomore "profits before people" medical ideology. No one makes money when we are healthy and noone makes money when there is no war. So, how to end this: stay healthy, end war, the world will be better off. Capitalism is evil.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has been proven in a clinical setting to be as effective as antidepressants. Best self help books on Cognitive Therapy are "Feeling Good" by Dr. David Burns and "Guide To Rational Living" by Dr. Albert Ellis.

[mikecazzx]

Anyone ever notice every season of Survivor has a young, skinny, attractive female pharma rep? This seems to show they are using attractive women to sell doctors on the drugs. Whats next, prostitutes? WAKE UP AMERICA.  FRUITS AND VEGETABLES cure many diseases, afflictions and mental issues.

[Lovesfoxes]

People, this video is not about saying that all drugs are bad at all times - it is about understanding the very real economic intentions behind the prescription pad. It is about the importance of critical thinking and taking charge of your own healing. There are so many natural healing methods out there and I can testify that some of them work better than meds, if you just try! We are not victims of our bodies.

[ellaannaleo]

@Lovesfoxes THANK YOU! Victim mentality is not good but Insurance and Pharma own us, they decide if we live or die. And we are civilized? Wow, I want to make some money off of someone dying, come on, its the new rage. Insurace policies for all workers only to be cashed by employer!

[madoogliani]

Big Pharma wouldn't do as well if people weren't so desirous of a simple pill answer to a complex problem that could otherwise be alleviated or solved over a slower time frame by location/occupation/behavioura­l changes.

[madoogliani]

Odd that some people are so anti treating the symptoms, as if the disease can always be treated. In the case of hayfever, for example, it's not really that easy to fix the DNA inside every cell of your body's malfunctioning system. Sure, you can try to avoid the triggers, but, failing that, antihistamines do a great job. As do antibiotics, antiseptics, anaesthetics, headache remedies, decongestants...

[19missi59]

@madoogliani if you checked deeper you may find that all the things you name can be CURED and that people will tell you it is in your DNA but have you actually seen the gene? there are even believers who say you can change genetic codes with your...but i won´t take you there.maybe you will want to look it up,for the sake of your kids,parents, yourself???

[madoogliani]

@19missi59 You don't need to see genes to know they are there. We've only relatively recently found a lot of it out though, and the work continues.

How exactly does one cure a headache? Oh yeah, with drugs. Or time. The drugs are faster. Please explain how hayfever can be cured though, because I have a friend who'd dearly love to know.

I'm not sure what you're suggesting I look up. I hope you don't mean genetics, because I already know quite a bit, what with the degree and all.

[RefuseForced2Link]

@dtk7777 You first!

[iBusinessLogic]

This is Soooo True! I can attest to the insipid and pervasive over use of prescriptions to cure all ills. After my major injury in 2001, I was put on to the Drug Cure Train by numerous doctors. None of them were interested in my list of other drugs I had been prescribed. Before I died from the pharmaceutical cures - I quit them all cold turkey! Risky, but it saved my life!

[mygto2007]

Fuck Them...SMOKE MORE CANNABIS!!

[NeuroticNightmares07]

I have OCD...and anxiety. I found they want to push drugs on me...whcih aren't working. They make me sick...and I have to take meds for the sickness the meds I am taking for the OCD gives me. There are therapies that are so much better, but my insurance won't pay for it. They will only pay for drugs. I hate it...now I am on 14 drugs...two to start and the rest to manage symptoms of the other drugs. It's terrible.

[NeuroticNightmares07]

@NeuroticNightmares07 Also meds given to me as a child...ones they pushed for kids in the 80s they say kids cant have now under any circumstances...well I am paying for that crap now too. My teeth are rotiing out of my head because some meds caused decay in the enamel of my teeth that couldn't be stopped. My thyroid is messed up resulting in chronic weight gain and that causes asthmatic problems and gastric issues. I get rashes now and have joint issues...another now known side effect...

[NeuroticNightmares07]

@NeuroticNightmares07 Also when I was in head start...i did long division AND taught other kids how to do it...now I have memory problems, problems with focusing, and processing information. Stay away from drugs ESPECIALLY if you are pregnant...and don't give mental health meds to your kids...trust me...there are other ways.

[rosiecox1]

@HexerKetzer Du solltest auf deinem Blog noch eine Übersetzung ins Deutsche beifügen. #Schweinegrippe

[freedomfriestastebad]

This woman is lying.  Mental illness cannot be cured by drugs like viruses can, the symptoms simply treated with drugs.

[livingthegift]

@freedomfriestastebad Your talking BS. It's been well known for years by most of the population that big pharma is probably the most corrupt industry on the planet. Just wait until laws get approved in the US that stops you taking "natural" vitamin C (e.g. lime) because it claims to have health benefits...Carry on fiddling while Rome burns - or are you involved with this as*hole of an industry?

[freedomfriestastebad]

@livingthegift hahaha, "Your". It is spelled You're when you are saying you are as a contraction. You clearly are not educated enough about anything let alone rxs. Go smoke some more pot you conspiracy theorist.

[ucanleaveyourhaton]

@freedomfriestastebad ooooooohhhh - who's got their periods then ?? LOL

[Imperativism]

@freedomfriestastebad Your reasoning is helter-skelter, piss-poor irrational. First you cherry pick one particular field she addresses, psychiatric pharmaceuticals, and then you extrapolate your data as a sum generalization that encompasses all of her assertions -- all while deaf-earring her critique of heart and cholesterol medications.

FAIL.

You clearly are not educated enough about anything, let alone pharmaceuticals.

Go smoke some pot, you irrational slack-ass.

[freedomfriestastebad]

@Imperativism I don't do drugs.

[CareyforFitness]

Thanks for speaking up. I like the fact that exercise is more effective than placebo and anti-depressant drugs. Ask your doctor if exercise is right for you. Hire a personal trainer and cure your depression!

[Sasukelegend5]

Forgot to mention, I'm not even on the drugs they had me on, I rarely even smoke weed now... What it did, and this was during one of my episodes, was calm me down enough to THINK about what was really important in my life... Once my head was clear, it stuck... Sometimes I'll get upset or furious with people, but hey, we're all human... And I just can't stand stupid people... But in the end, it's not pharma who helped me... It was my friends

[Sasukelegend5]

I happen to have Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism... However, They put me on medications for ADD and antidepressants... Made me worse actually... What REALLY helped me was introspection, marijuana, friends, and (since I'm also physically unable to work) something to do to pass the time... Sure, I may type like this, people assume I'm just down... It's just because I, quite frankly, am calm as a Hindu cow normally

[Divinity33372]

True that! Of course they don't want people cured. That's why they won't decriminalize pot. It's too hard for pharmaceutical companies to control.

[Richreeve75]

Very easy to prove this fact with only a little bit of research but the problem is in the western world, most people associate the treating of a symptom as a cure when in fact this is not the case. EVERY single medication has side-effects which will usually create NEW symptoms which the Pharma companies can then offer another solution for. People get lost in this cycle of hiding symptoms which have all stemmed from maybe ONE problem.

Remember hiding a symptom is NOT a cure its just for profit.

[MidoriFan10]

Lol.

[Rorre65]

very true ! drugs are "alternatives" for things that can be healed and delaed with in a natural way, if all people searched inside themselves and let go of all fear and resistance they will find that this is the reason they felt un-healthy from the beginning, but instead people hold on to all those things and are not willing to deal with the real reasons why the feel bad and instead hope that those pills will solve all of there problems, but they wont

[tomerodrique]

I hope she watches her back. Big Pharma is watching this, too.

[bweazel]

You're legalized drug dealers. DUH. If this comes as a shock to anyone, pull your head out of your ass and grow up.

[watty924]

yea,too bad the big pharmas will probably kill her.so who wants to sign up to protect her?

[Joshua001A]

I like this lady.

I'm dependent on paroxetine personally but I have to say I don't like the idea of going off it!

[reader0705]

There are too many drug ads trying to get us to tell our doctors what to do. In my last 'Better Homes & Gardens' there were 26 pages of ads (some were 2-4 page ads for one drug). Americans pay for all this advertising and for the R&D costs; that's why it costs so much more here than in Canada or other countries.

[FightForTheInnocent]

woe be to he that kills innocence for reward..

[LoanCougar]

So glad to have found this video as I've been of this belief for many years now. I do not take flu vaccines and only now and then take OTC benadryl for occasional allergies. I'm a firm believer in our bodies' healing abilities. We just need to take care of them with good nutrition and exercise! Prescription drugs do not heal but mask the symptoms! From what I have read, deaths from illegal drugs is about 1/5 of what you say legal drugs cause annually!! It's mind boggling!

[TheJoshJman]

that is why i smoke marijuana...

[trademarc66]

One person on too many meds hit the wrong button.

[SharkTheArdvark]

good video.

[jazpertube]

this is just great, you're the first "big pharma guy" i hear telling the truth... wow! btw, aren't you going to tell why the same "big pharma" has made hemp illegal in the u.s. and their colonies, by any chance? that would be quite informative, too.

thank you, you're my new heroin(e)!! :)

[dlblue]

my best friend committed suicide because of the steroids his doctor prescribed for him> I HATE big pharma!

@dlblue They are evil an so are Insurace companies that profit off off suffering and DEATH...they just prolong the misery

[SteelRock73]

Big pharm is why marijuana is illegal!

[batcountryrabid]

[refici222]

does any one get kickbacks, for pushing the drugs?

[zask100]

Wake up people and do your research before getting hooked on prescription drugs....it is the biggest scam out there. Diet and exercise is the key to MANY health issues.

[verakeithblake]

I've been using a naturopath for years, after having all sorts of trouble with drugs (and my illnesses kept recurring). The natural medicines not only worked better, my illnesses have been abolished! I NEVER get sick now!

[VirtualCandidate]

FYI The full name of her book is "Confessions of an Rx Drug Pusher: God's Call to Loving Arms." So keep in mind this person has a very strong spiritual bias that she associates with her work. I completely agree with her about exercise, as I've experienced major changes since I began running two miles/day 5 time/week. My experience with Wellbutrin over most of the last ten years or so is very positive. I lost my craving for self-medications such as alcohol and coffee.

[Babspace]

Good information here. Not 100% accurate-- the drugs CAN help a percentage of the people, but the drug companies and doctors who get kickbacks are not prescribing them conservatively, i.e. only to the people they *will* help, but liberally, to anyone with a certain complaint.

Nothing is black-and-white. There is good science behind the research, just not the distribution.

Anti depressants are the devils work, My spouse took paxil for 10 years before he committed suicide with a shotgun in his mouth. All urged on by his doctors.

[Babspace]

@enkelin32 Your husband killed himself because he was depressed, NOT because of the Paxil. The drug didn't control the depression, but it DID NOT cause him to blow his brains out with a shotgun.

Ignorant comments like yours just muddle the issue.

[enkelin32]

@Babspace I never said what caused his suicide, but YES the paxil did nothing to allievate his depression. He took it and PAID for it for ten years though. Doctors all complicit with prescribing the meds and not treating the depression. They made their blood money, what the hell did they care.

[InvisiMan2006]

@Babspace You do realize that there is an increased risk of depression with every anti-depressant drug out there? When you take something that alters your brain chemistry, you CAN and often WILL have negative consequences. If you've ever been on one of these drugs, you would know how distorted it makes your judgement and perception of things. Sometimes these drugs are the "push" people need to take their own life.

[Babspace]

@InvisiMan2006 When the root problem IS the brain chemistry, then altering it is how you correct it, just like when they problem is blood sugar levels, diabetics take insulin to control it.

I agree the meds are overprescribed, but they DO help people, and for folks like enkelin32 who want to blame the drugs and drug companies for a problem her husband had his whole life is simply ignorant.

[InvisiMan2006]

@Babspace Yes, of course if the problem is chemical, then it needs to be corrected, but does it always need to be corrected with pharmaceuticals (that have wild side-effects)? There are many ADD/ADHD kids that have gone off their medication and healed their "illness" after environmental and dietary changes were made. Same thing with diabetics - off meds when a simple dietary change is made.

[InvisiMan2006]

@Babspace When we put drugs in our bodies, it INTERFERES with the natural functions of our cells, so we need to explore safer alternatives BEFORE drugs. They almost always work better and cause health improvements, not decline over time.

[Babspace]

@InvisiMan2006 LOL. You are so cute! Naive and not terribly informed, but adorable.

[michaelmage]

Unbelievable?? Nope. This woman is describing the normal modus operandi of BigPharma. Doctors prescribe the 'medicines' from pharmaceutical companies that yield the biggest kickbacks. This is not new.

[0rmick]

I can't say I agree 100% with all the naysayers.I take Adderall daily for my ADD (Yes, I was diagnosed) and I notice an enormous difference in my ability to focus when I am on them.

Thank god that's the only med I take.

[Octospidr]

The first time I saw a pharma commercial where the side-effect list was greater than half the time for the commercial, I lost what little belief I had in the industry.

[InboxJonathan]

Is this woman dead yet?

...any moment now...

[moongoddessaries]

Everything she is saying is true. I have personal experience with this. I used to be on antidepressants and had severe withdrawal symptoms when I quit. Knowing what I know now about them, I will NEVER go back on them again! A natural & holistic approach to mental and physical health is the way to go! FUCK Big Pharma!!!

Oh and my dr. never told me the side effects of these drugs and tried to convince me that I needed them when I knew I didnt. Doctors are full of shit! Do your own research!

[azzan360]

ONE WORD: CANNABIS!

The healing of the nation, the world.

[pippypop09]

my children watch Pharma commercials that run adds that show birds and meadows and pleasant things trying to sell new drug to a cross addicted america. The actual side effects horrify them and they ask me " why would anyone take these pills Dad if they do all these bad things". I love the pill that u take in conjunction with a non working anti dep to make it work instead of stopping use of non working pill. side effects inclued possible death among the 2 minutes of advertised side effects!!!!!!

[TheIdaho420]

This is all 100% TRUE! I am addicted to 3 prescriptions at this time - I tried like hell to get off them, but almost lost my fucking mind!

I was on around 12 prescription meds - now I am down to 5 thanks to cannabis!!!!!!! These other 5 are just going to take some time is all.

Not to mention, that I almost killed myself trying to get off these - not knowing the fatal side effects of quiting my meds cold turkey!!!!

[iamkloeful]

@TheIdaho420 me too, cannabis all the way, I'm having to do chemo. for cancer, but know the side effects for the chemo. would have never allowed me to get this far, at one time the Dr. has me on 3, yes 3 heart meds. Zetia, Trilipix and lovastatin.......I just do eadibles and vape.........life is good

[dawes777]

@TheIdaho420 A proven method to detox the body is the water cure: Your Body’s Many Cries For Water by Dr F. Batmanghelidj, subtitled – A revolutionary natural way to prevent illness and restore good health. Read it; it’s a revelation.

[LazyOtaku]

@dawes777 That only works for non-fluoridated, non-drugged water btw.

[dawes777]

@LazyOtaku Of course, and the best way is not drinking toxic bottled water, but to use a good quality water filter such as reverse osmosis unit.

[InnerMittenSignal]

@TheIdaho420 i hope your account wasn't closed because you died! i moved house & turned to intensive prayer to get healed of athsma & off all the medication. i did it VERY gradually! our old flat had an asbestos coated ceiling leftover from when it was built...probably in the fifties!

[jonasxlove]

@TheIdaho420

I was on Paxil for 14 years, not for depression, but myofacial pain following a surgical accident. I tried many times to d/c it, and the pain was so bad I thought I couldn't live without it .Finally, I found a Dr. who suggested a 6 week d/c procedure, which I later learned was essentially 'cold turkey.' I went through hell, literally, all the while trying to gather information to try to help myself. There are legions like us out there. Find a group on the web.I am healed aft 3yrs

[NatureLegalized]

Good PSA clip! :)
