Well, overall the video made sense to me. The elderly, sick and kids are always prone to be abused, but I don't think ALL psychiatrists are like that. When I was about 15 I tried some drugs (Mandrax and weed) about 3 times, that with depression and hormonal changes that teens go through I became depressed and suicidal, ran away from home (no abuse there or anything). Took a cocktail of drugs for a year from a Psychiatrist, and saw Psychologists - 2 years later I was "normal" again.
@stevebuscemi6 Good point, I never thought of that. :-o That's a very real possibility, but the year of Psychiatric drugs didn't seem to do any harm (physically or mentally) unless I was just one of the "lucky" ones.
I don't know anything about scientology (too pop culture for me to have taken notice) However, I was in foster care and was forced onto medication, as were all the other kids I encountered also in fostercare/group homes. I have been pronouncing the evils of psychiatry for years. Thank you so much for posting this. I am trying to raise awareness about CPS abuse by posting a testimonials page.

Good lord, I am in such a crappy mood. I know I'm only watching this to make myself mad (scientologists are reactionary freaks), but I really shouldn't. This is, like, the worst thing for someone who is irritated and depressed to expose themselves to.
almost every person can be bought. they will say anything to keep their job. most people on earth are not trustable. psychiatry is fraud and pseudo science. it is all about selling drugs, treatments & profiting. even non psychiatric drugs are killing many people. also addictive drugs are you sold to people. it is scientific dictatorship. and most of the diseases & medicines made up & those making those claims & practices is very crazy & evil.

@scottwebb Well the entire video is bias and is used as a tool by the Church of Scientology to push their agenda. This video fails to explain why antidepressant medication has helped many people with severe depression live their lives again. There is a difference between a teenager who just broke up with his significant other and is feeling depressed and medical depression. Everything has risk involved and people should know that before taking any type of medication.
@dylanburkey Tell me how fluoride based and many other toxic chemicals help people, more importantly go look up eugenics. I am not supporting Scientology , I just found the data very relevant. I put a lot of vids done by Christians for the same reasons but i am not a Christian. As i said go find out about eugenics before you sit there putting others down.
@scottwebb Fluoride is a horrible chemical and I completely agree with you on that point. All i'm suggesting is that this video goes way overboard and is clearly bias. Yes there are many things wrong with the psychiatric community just as there is with many health professions. Medications are being over dispensed and to people who simply do not need them. Given to the right people, antidepressants work great and the same for ADD/ADHD medication. Its not the medication, it is the doctors.
@scottwebb I have seen schizophrenics and paranoid schizophrenics who are unable to function in almost any capacity. When these same people were treated with atypical antipsychotics the results were astonishing. They were able to carry out daily life functions and even hold a steady job. Prior to having been medicated these people could not even maintain a coherent conversation. There is merit to psychiatry, the problem is as stated before: pills are NOT for everyone and can cause severe issues.
@dylanburkey That is anecdotal, perhaps even an example of the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy. Either which way, studies that look at the outcomes for medicated patients, compared to non-medicated, has exploded the myth that these drugs work in the aggregate. Longitudinal studies have shown that medictaed patients are far less likely to be able to function socially than medicated, generally. Also, at the moment, it is thought that on average, antipsychotics are taking decades off people's...
@dylanburkey... lives. Then you have the tardive psychosis indicated in long-term usage with both atypical and typicals, the metabolic illness, the gradual cognitive deterioration resulting from the shrinkage of the cerebral cortex, the galloping weightgain, psychomotor retardation, intense tiredness etc etc. Your arguments seem like a throwback to the nascent stages of atypical usage.
@scottwebb I am in now way putting anyone down. The fact of the matter is that someone watching this may not get the help they need just because the Church of Scientology does not believe in psychiatry. If this was a video produced by a group of psychiatrists claiming antidepressants were the cure all, I would be equally upset.
@scottwebb Yes I have read about it in college and just went over it again. What connection are you making to this video or psychiatry in general? I may have missed something and if I did I apologize.
@dylanburkey I have emailed you a link to a vid that will give you a good starter on the subject in which all the data you can verify.It is well worth watching :)
@dylanburkey The entire video is biased? Most of the people in this video are not scientologists, especially Robert Whitaker, and Thomas Szasz has done more than anyone in history to fight for the constitutional rights of the person so labelled 'mentally ill'. I am no scientologist, and I think the way in which the doc is made is almost an insult to such an important issue, but much of it is true nevertheless, just that the form is embarrassing, lamentably.

@sphinxart Maybe you were cured because you stopped doing the other things that started the problem to begin with??

@sphinxart Placebos have cured things, Im not joking. Having a strong mind and will is important.

@stevebuscemi6 Fair enough - I've read about the beneficial effects of Placebos, it's quite fascinating actually.
