  • amazing. i watched this in my lecture at uni and even got a copy of it on VHS. i'm actually including it in an essay i'm writing as part of my research. my younger sister suffered from meningitis at 6 weeks old, and the first hospital she went to was awful, with no support for the families at all. wasn't until we went to St. George's in London that we were actually treated with any kind of respect. the ICU were amazing, just sad that you weren't able to get the same kind of support....

  • Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. What lecture were you having where someone showed this though? I'm very curious to know. I hope your sister continued to get good treatment and is ok now. I'm doing fine these days and have a great neurologist at St Thomas's who I see once a year for a checkup. I NEVER go near psychiatrists, of course.

  • This is propaganda at its finest.

  • This is a personal film about my real experiences that was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK. I wanted to interview the actual psychiatrists involved in my treatment but was told I couldn't even mention the name of the hospital as they would sue the broadcaster and stop transmission. This is the power that psychiatric big business holds. They make criticism very difficult.

  • Thank you. Loved the film. It is an eloquant, insightful and entertaining commentary! I wonder if the treating psychiatrist or nurses from that hopitalization have seen it yet? I would love to know how they would react! You are a renegade and an inspiration.

    You made my day.

  • @meinvent Ofcourse, man. He's everybody's spirit guide :)

  • Intelligent people are always spouting philosopical arguments like you did to the psychiatrist. The problem is that psychitrists are so stupid they cannot understand the concepts behind what you were saying. I understood totally what you were getting at.

  • They got me on a community treatment order. I have to submit to injections otherwise they will call the police, have me dragged off in cuffs and will pin me down to inject me in hospital. I'm not dangerous either. I am just psychic and telepathic.

  • Psychitrists are frightened of anything spiritual. They cannot cope with what they don't understand.

  • lmao john lennon is my spirit guide

  • Totally cool response!
