Dr. Niall McLaren, an Australian practicing psychiatrist for 22 years, explains what is wrong with the psychiatric profession: That it cannot/will not take criticism, for fear the entire model of biological psychiatry will unravel.
That there is no science to psychiatric diagnoses, no brain based diseases. And that psychiatry only pushes mental disorders
as biological disease in order to convince people to take psychiatric drugs, causing a host of dangerous side effects.
For more psychiatrists/psychologists and doctors who have spoken out against the fraud of psychiatry's biological model of mental disorders

  • If you substitute the word "psychiatry" with the word "Scientology", this video will be MUCH more truthful. As it is, it's heavily edited, deliberately misinformed BS.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyXenu Ha! No you tool, you're misinformed. And to verify that, go check with the former DSM Chariman Allen Frances, leading psychiatrist over all DSM disorders says about psychiatric disorders being "bullshit" You know how to use the internet right? Look it up. Allen Frances and bullshit. You'll find you're quote there.

  • @CCHRInt Actually, I think you'll find YOU are the one misinformed, my space cadet friend, or rather, you're UNINFORMED, especially about what your cult gets up to.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyXenu Wrong again OnlyAndLonely. You must be extremely lonely if you have nothing better to do than comment on this video, particularly when you're so completely out of your league on the facts as they pertain to this subject. So run along now little lonely one.

  • What would be other alternatives to treating people or helping people........ i understand that if u are not acting normal you have a disorder......what do you suggest just throwing everyone in jail? letting them live among us? i dont understand...

  • @FrankCastroAre Its on our website cchrint.org under alternatives. Real medical solutions.

  • @lexZender57732 That's kind of a moronic thing to say LexZender...considering the video features a psychiatrist. Seriously. Do you also think the former Chairman of the DSM Task Force, Allen Frances is part of the "witch hunt" when he recently said mental disorders are "bull..." look it up. Google search Allen Frances DSM. While you're at it search Loren Mosher, David Kaiser,Colin Ross, Ron Liefer - all part of the "witch hunt" and ALL psychiatrists. Yep.

  • yep. you pretty much spelled it out for us. the idea of mental illness is directed at people who are against social control policies designed by governments. mental illness does exist on some level. people have problems with anxiety and get depressed, but the DSM blows things way out of proportion. these psych meds aren't good for people. i think i'm just going to stay a hick.

see all

  • The whole concept of psychiatry was developed well before 1900 in Germany to get rid of people complaining. The first use of directed energy weapons can be recognized in psychiatric literature from 1908. You find it in chapter Psychiatrie-->Klinik der Narkolepsie on my homepage. During the NAZI time this concept was given up as Germany just murdered oponents. It was relaunched directly after the war to persecute and silence concentration camp survivors.

  • i used want to be a psychiatrist, but today its so watered down...that technically you dont really need a PHD

  • 45 dislikes???????? must be Big Pharma buddies !!!!!

    

  • He is only saying there is no proof that mental illness can only be treated with meds because it's only a brain disease. This is pretty true as is the same for other "medical" problems. So often we don't know what causes medical problems such as cancer or inflammation but we'll treat that won't we?

  • @CCHRInt

    As far as I can remember, Allen Frances was only against the revisions for the controversial DSM-V, that it needs an independent scientific review, among others. He was, however, not saying mental illness is a fraud in general -- which I find weird 'cause he was after all the chairman of the task force that created the current DSM-IV.

  • But apart from that, mental illness is real. And this is not because some psychiatrist told me. But because my own life told me. Among my worst experience with it was when I was unaware of them. I once considered social anxiety as simply "shyness" and OCD as simply stress getting the best of me in high school. And these misconceptions almost destroyed me. I made 9 attempts on my life at that time, blaming myself for these "mistakes".
