Don't be fooled - Why Mental Health Care is littered with dangerous charades.

The incarceration of free thinking healthy people in madhouses is spiritual murder, it is a variation of the gas chamber, even more cruel; the torture of the people being killed is more malicious and more prolonged. Like the gas chambers, these crimes will never be forgotten and those involved in them will be condemned for all time during their life and after their death.


In history, it is well documented that the mental health industry gets politically corrupted and is inevitably used as a weapon against free-thinking civilians and outcasts.


Think of the abuses of Nazi psychiatrists who took part in the Aktion T4 euthanasia and sterilization program and attempted to murderously eradicate schizophrenia. In Japan at the same time, mental illness was considered incurable, worse than disease and the mentally ill as disgraces to their family. They were excluded from communities and isolated in remote asylums. When war-induced mental disorders occurred, civilian psychiatrists were censored and threatened that they would be arrested for even discussing new mentally illnesses, whilst army psychiatrists convinced their patients their traumas weren't real.


In Cuba, pychotropic drugs and electroconvulsive therapy was used regularly by psychiatrists on those deemed threats to the revolution. In Russia, the K.G.B regularly referred dissidents to psychiatrists to discredit and torture them, particularly after it was run by Yuri V. Andropov in 1967.


Benjamin Rush, a founding father of the United States, who is considered the father of psychiatry invented disorders such as 'negritude' based on the notion blacks were black due to a variant of leprosy and to be cured had to have their skin scrubbed with corrosive acid till it turned white. He created a disorder called 'anarchia' meaning 'an excess of the passion for liberty' and for that disease he thought the solution to be simple, writing“terror acts powerfully upon the body, through the medium of the mind, and should be employed in the cure of madness'. He subsequently popularised solitary confinement, sleep and light deprivation, and even invented a '"tranquilizer" chair in which the patient's "body is immobilized by straps at the shoulders, arms, waist, and feet [and] a box-like apparatus is used to confine the head," and a "gyrator," "which was a horizontal board on which torpid patients were strapped and spun to stimulate blood circulation.'

If people believe the mental-health industry has changed much over the last eighty years, I fear they are just fooling themselves - consider Mexico. In Mexico, it is known that family is considered everything. Whilst this is warming, it is equally troubling (consider rape statistics for instance in families worldwide and in Mexico in particular, they are shocking) and there has been a system in place for decades, originating in the 1980s, called anexos - which are family brain-washing camps, dressed up as mental health centres.


These anexos call themselves mental health rehabilitation centres meant for drug addicts but in reality are prisons for black sheep within families. Families regularly kidnap family members, particularly ones who take drugs but not necessarily (even kids get kidnapped), and lock them up in these centres, which can be as cruelly named as 'Perros Sin Duenos' (Dogs Without Homes). They are spread everywhere across the country, much more common than prisons.


In these centres torture, beatings and strict slavery take place - even rapes are regularly reported (especially in exchange for earlier releases), as well as murders and suicides. Even in the most mild ones, the "patients" are forced to confess one at a time all their sins publicly, only to be degraded further by the "godfathers" (who oversee their rehabilitation in the centres) if they don't state the right confessions, whilst the rest of the time they must listen to other 'patients' - drug addicts, any type of criminals, family black sheep, schizophrenics and suicidal individuals (etc...) do exactly the same - till they all hit 'rock-bottom' and declare they are 'helpless' but that a 'higher power' will save them. They are permitted zero freedom and do this confessional torture for several hours a day, sometimes all night, generally for months but some can spend years locked away. These captives are only released when a family member has mercy and decides they are 'well' - in other words, obedient enough to be let free, and in the end only leave more resentful and traumatized. Nothing about the system in consensual, personalised or liberating - and the idea behind depriving people of all freedom to help them with addictions is painfully stupid, considering most people take drugs to escape reality. Hence, lots end up regularly returning to anexos and even get called anexo-rats. Yet, this is regular therapy in Mexico, for decades. Only two years ago were anexos such as 'Perros Sin Duenos' made illegal, but now there are thousands of mental health clinics which in reality are anexos, still running. It is most scary psychiatrists run these torture chambers, like a factory-farm business.

Mental Health Care - A for-profit drug business?


It is telling that both the most intelligent and the most anti-authoritarian individuals in the population are most diagnosed with mental health problems.


In 2012, the Archives of General Psychiatry reported that between 1993 through 2009, there was a seven-fold increase of children 13 years and younger being prescribed anti-psychotic drugs, whilst for teens the rate rose five-fold and for adults doubled. Therefore, starting young - children are being medicated for being disruptive and having Attention Hyper Deficit Disorder by being prescribed drugs like Abilify and Risperdal, a whole new trend. Borderline disorder is increasingly diagnosed and treated to from a young age. It seems to be anti-authoritarian consigns you to a life of be-docile drugs, like never before, presuming people aren't that changed from the past.


Meanwhile, it is known that eminent writers, artists and composers are between eight to ten times more likely to suffer from depression or bipolar disorder (Kay Redfeld Jamison), disorders also associated heavily with leading comedians, scientists and inventors, thinkers and scholars, statesmen and national leaders (Felix Post). Female poets are particularly prone to suicide and mania, whilst the likes of Cesare Lombroso and Wilhelm Lange-Eichbaum all proved geniuses are particularly prone to suffer affective disorders. A ten year study of every school leaver in Sweden and their mental health, found that excellence in academic achievement at school was associated with later development of bipolar disorder. In short, the most creative and intelligent tend to be diagnosed with mental-illnesses, but the question is to what degree is the mental health industry in crisis, if this is so.


In the rest of the population, schizophrenia and autism are scarily on the rise and over-diagnosed. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), autism prevalence (the number of existing cases) in the United States has increased nearly five-fold in the last 20 years. Prevalence rose from 1 in 150 children in 2000 (children born in 1992) to1 in 36 in 2020 (children born in 2012). In 1975 only one in every five-thousand kids was diagnosed with autism. Clearly the problem must be two fold - one: over-diagnoses of autism, and two: an actual mental health crisis where rather than conditions like autism becoming rarer, they have sky-rocketed.


Since 1952, the American Psychiatric Association has published the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as a guideline for the classification and diagnoses of mental health issues, leading it to be considered the psychiatric diagnostic bible of our times. However, the psychiatric bible was created largely by the pharmaceutical industry - researcher Lisa Cosgrove showed in 2012 that 70% of its producers had ties to Big Pharma. Some were consultants or even spokespersons for drug manufacturers. It was noted 'on certain panels, the conflict of interest was even more profound: 83% of the members of the panel working on mood disorders had pharmaceutical industry ties, and 100%—every single member—of the sleep disorder panel had “ties to the pharmaceutical companies that manufacture the medications used to treat these disorders or to companies that service the pharmaceutical industry.”If these task force members' goal is to make sure that more and more pharmaceuticals are sold, then by every measure they've been remarkably successful.' The biggest problem is that drugs are used to temporarily aid patients with symptoms of their illnesses, so the individual is told the drug won't fix the problem - that requires other types of therapy, but they will numb the problem. All this does is create an addiction to the drug, but without the drug it is often the case the person feels worse than before they even tried the drugs.


Drugs are massive money-makers - they are the cheapest type of product to mass produce and once patented, can be sold at extortionate prices. Researchers Visiongain Research Inc.’s reported in 2021 'that the Global mental disorder drugs market was valued at $36.77 billionn in 2020 and is projected to reach at a market value of 58.91 billion by 2031'. In my mind, there is no doubt a link between the rise in mental health illnesses and the profitability of their medicine (which rarely cures, but conveniently usually helps the sufferer marginally for a very long time). I have no doubt millions of people are misdiagnosed, even sectioned, since such actions generate billions of dollars to the pharmaceutical industry which rules the mental health industry. In my mind, there is no doubt that we need to work out what actually is causing the staggering rise in autism and similar disorders involving social disconnection, and care less about the so-called rise in ADHD, bipolar disorder and depression amongst children and the most creative - since these are probably natural reactions to modern-day society sadly, whereas autism is the exact opposite. I doubt the drugs do help individuals with ADHD for instance, in fact, statistically it is proven they haven't, as the conditions have got more prevalent exactly since drugs were more used to treat them. It seems like a business. Lastly, the biggest concern is narcissism in modern-day society and it is known that narcissists particularly need to paint their victims as 'crazy' and 'mad', putting the mental health industry under threat. Mental health is sacred. Be wary though of getting help.
