Sounds like L. Ron Hubbard psychobabble. Hubbard hated doctors. He was a fruitcake and a hypochondriac. He tried to get disability payments when he left the Navy, even though nothing was ever found wrong with him. He especially hated psychiatrists, and his claims that Prozac is bad for people were self-serving, since he always claimed that his Macnines That Go Ping would help the mentally ill more efficiently, even though there has never neen any proof that they do a better job.

To everyone hating on the video, it's designed to shock you into thinking harder about taking medication.
And to make you watch "Food Matters", because this goes hand in hand with the ideas put forth in that movie.

As a psychiatrist I have to say this is extremely misleading. I'm not even sure where to start. But I'll start by the (perhaps not intentional) misuse or misunderstanding of the DSM: "having ups and downs" does not qualify someone for a diagnosis of bipolar disorder - not even close. Similarly simply being shy does not give a diagnosis of Social Anxiety. There are legitimate critiques of psychiatry. However, based on this "preview" I don't think this documentary is one such critique.

What sucks is that Eisenhower warned us of the industrial military complex. this country is one nation under the corporation and special interests. the whole American societal archetype is designed to divide and compartmentalize one person from another without the population even realizing it. Its really amazing how easy it is to keep people complacent.

They could not even explain schizophrenia. I do believe that too many people are put on pills for mental disorders but these medication help people suffering from schizophrenia greatly it was thanks to these pills that people could be released from mental hospitals.

OF course most poeple who seek the help of a psychiatrist receive a treatment. Sane, happy poeple don't go to a psychiatrist office. You go to a psychiatrist once your problem become obvious to everybody.
One of my cousin is bipolar 2. He does not have dellusion, but he sometimes act on impulse. And by impulse, I mean he sold his 79 corvette for 50$ . Stupid you say? When the mania wear off, he realised what he's done.
STOP SPREADING THOSE LIES. PSYCHIATRY IS FAR FROM PERFECT BUT THIS IS BS

Bipolare disorder is NOT having ups and down! For fuck sake, MANIA has nothing to do with being happy. Somebody running around naked at night shouting "I AM JESUS" is not a normal expression of happiness.
Paranoid is not suspicion. To be paranoid you need to believe the CIA is after you or aliens want you dead.
Social anxiety is quitting your job because the sight of other humans being make your heart race
Major Depressive disorder can make you stay still for days until you starve and die

I watched a bunch of documentary like Zeitgeist or The Corporation, it had an impact on me but I wondered: Am I a free spirit, or just gullible to anti-establishment propaganda?
Watching this, I am now convince that my bullshit detector is sharp. This documentary is only strawman argument after another.
Psychiatrist were wrong in the past, this means they are wrong today?
You can't diagnose somebody because of his behavior?
This is STUPID
