The real story of psychiatry
This is an examination of a subject that began around 150 years ago and promoted itself as the solution to mental health and yet in all that time, psychiatry has found no causes for any mental illness and offered no cures for any mental illness – lack of science or a dedicated fraud?
One thing is however very clear:
If the actual causes of mental illness were found and people were cured, then billions of dollars of profits for pharmaceutical companies and payments to induce support, including to psychiatry itself, would disappear.
Part 1: The real, simple story and the beginnings of ‘modern’ psychiatry
More and more persons are being diagnosed as mentally ill with more and more possible diagnoses being created. Treatments only address symptoms with no actual cures ever being found. None of it is based on science but unproven theories about ‘biological psychiatry’ that push drugs or worse, as a solution.
Part 2: Rockefeller Foundation and the failure of psychiatry as a science
The Rockefeller Foundation foisted the unproven theory of ‘biological psychiatry’ on the medical profession by attempting to stage-manage psychiatry into the scientific activity it thought it should be. It was ultimately defeated by a lack of scientific foundation and indifference to providing one within psychiatry’s ranks.
Part 3: Psychiatry’s lack of science masked by pharmaceuticals
The chance ‘discovery’ of psychotropic drugs saved psychiatry from oblivion by masking the subject’s lack of scientific foundation. The drugs are overmarketed, only suppress symptoms, result in damaging side effects, have questionable efficacy, and the actual causes of mental illness are never addressed.
Part 4: ‘Mental health’ is defined and controlled by profit-driven commercial interests
For decades, psychiatry in collusion with pharmaceutical companies and to a lesser degree device manufacturers, has turned the subject of mental health into a for-profit free-for-all where patients have become repeat customers. ‘Mental health’ is only what psychiatry and pharma marketing campaigns want to say it is, ignoring inconvenient facts such as the cause of mental illnesses are never found and no one is ever actually cured.
