m1thotyn rated 7 weeks ago- Read Blaming The Brain, By Elliot S. Valenstein, Ph.d. And The Medicaliziation Of Everyday Life By Thomas Szasz. These are dangerous lies. Neuroleptics, originally referred to as "chemical straight jackets" and "chemical lobotomies" by their early enthusiasts who used them to quiet crowded mental hospitals, are nothing but accidentally discovered chemicals that disable and damage the brain. The effect that neuroleptics have on behavior is that they disable the brain so profoundly that it loses many of its normal biological functions and must rely more on primary survival function, creating a passive indifferent state of mind in the user. You get the same results with a baseball bat.

""After dopamine was acknowledged to be a separate neurotransmitter, several lines of evidence suggested that it might play the critical role in schizophrenia's etiology and treatment. From the outset, it was observed that practically all of the available anti psychotic drugs produced motor symptoms that resembled parkinsonism. When it was discovered that parkinsons patients were suffering from a dopamine deficiency, it was reasonable to hypothesize that anti psychotic drugs must be blocking dopamine activity. These observations led directly to the hypothesis that schizophrenics must suffer from excessive dopamine activity, which anti psychotics could correct." Elliot Valenstein, Blaming the brain (1998)."
That's Elliot Valenstein, Ph.d neuroscientist. It is a scientist making these observations that accidentally discovered psychoactive chemicals laid and enforced the foundation of the entire biopsychiatric profession in medicine, and with a market to consumers, government (suppressing civil unrest, "helping" the homeless by putting them on SSI, doping them up in group homes. -- and invasion onto civil liberties, a psychiatrist has more power over you than a police officer... Bet? Want to be a part of a scientific experiment?), and of course some patients themselves, because the simplified biochemical hypothesis makes it easy to just say "No need to investigate, what a relief." and the family members who drug "schizo's/biploars", they will buy it just to sleep at night but I cant doubt that they love the peace and quiet. They do not treat schizophrenia or pyschosis. They are chemical restraints. Schizophrenia is NOT a disease, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that it is that cant trace back to the drug treatments themselves -- The structural abnormalities found on the PET scan, can be re-created in monkeys given neuroleptics! Similar, hard to distinguish abnormalities are also caused by alcohol, and as you would read in Valensteins book, experience can change brain anatomy as well.
I am so enraged. Everybody involved in these dishonest campaigns to oppress and control minorities should be stopped and the public should be informed as to the facts of these matters so people can begin to see these things for what they are.
This whole site is full of pathetic lies, but the one I like the most is this "Commitment to stay on treatment often leads to successful recovery in schizophrenia patients." Is that why recovery rates for schizophrenia are 0% in countries who use neuroleptic drugs vs 30-45% in countries who don't as reported by the world health organization? Read Robert Whitaker's "Mad in America". But perhaps the real recovery rate with neuroleptics is 100% if recovery means that they are no longer a problem for society or their care givers. You'd might as well just go back to lobotomy to keep from wasting so much tax and insurance dollars on drugs.- Read Blaming The Brain, By Elliot S. Valenstein, Ph.d.
