“Big Pharma is one of the largest and most profitable businesses in America, and in order to sell their chemical goods to allegedly treat the mind/psyche, pharmaceutical companies must convince society that people’s mental and behavioral problems are caused by their bodily chemicals.”
The mistake with the pharma path is not accepting that some folks are soulless predators, and some are empathetic saints and some are introverted philosophers and some are extroverted thugs and etc, etc, etc. so instead, here’s a 💊 pill 💊 to correct them all.
The "chemical imbalance" theory was refuted around the same time, when statins were proven harmful (yet Lipitor was the most successful money-maker ever for pharmaceuticals) Even if hormonal imbalance were proven, the most common fallacy in modern "Madicine" (sic!) would still prevail: mixing up the symptoms with the cause. Diagnostics, in general, is a bad joke:
But there's plenty of plant medicines and some synthetics that can help people and it's funny that they have been around for a long time and have minimal side effects, but they instead hide these unpatented drugs and promote drugs that cause addiction and craziness... Almost as if that was what was intended.
This is so depressing! Some of those drugs mentioned were deemed 'the ultimate cures for troubled minds' when they first appeared in the 60s and 70s.
I should know. My mother was diagnosed schizophrenic in her late 30s. To maintain some semblance of domestic peace we decided to take her to a psychiatrist. The good man assured us that we were fortunate enough to be living in a time when they had found a cure for mental disorders of the kind that my mother was afflicted with.
We ( as a family) were overjoyed. We took turns in ensuring she took her 'head medicines' everyday without fail. It became like a ritual. Far from making her whole again they only served to dull her thinking and deaden her senses. She was just not upto household chores anymore because she was so spent in the mornings on waking up ; and this added to the problems of our home and my parents' marriage.
None of us knew back then what we now know about these medications - that they were the products of bad science and greed.
But I don't blame big pharma. They are in it for the money just like any enterprise.
The real question (for me) is how do we define a mental disorder correctly? How much of it is biological,how much of it social- cultural?
It is in the absence of a realistic definition of mental illness ( and it's probable causes) that we as a society left the door open for the medical world to define both mental illness and its cures as they saw it. Are we any closer to understanding this phenomenon today in order to think of better and safer interventions ?!
The people running the pharma companies are the ones to blame. WE BLAME THEM.
They are not in it for the money, most of which is provided by long term success via satisfied customers. Their ultimate goal is not profit, as they already print and type in all the money anyway.
Their goal is control.
They are the ones who control everything: banking/finance, energy, religion, "education". They are a handful of bloodlines and they CHOSE to be evil, and therefore get the blame.
I'm pretty sure lobotomy existed before the mid 1940s. Rosemary Kennedy was lobotomized in 194. A Portuguese neurologist was credited with creation of the technique in 1935.
Lobotomy was invented in Babylon, if not earlier. A small knife was used to puncture the eyelid above the eye, then rammed through the small bones and slightly into the brain.
The scar above the eye marked you as a “bond slave”. Bond slaves were stupid, obedient and generally didn't last longer than 2 years or so before they either died, or became so useless they were discarded.
The “bond slave” lobotomy was regularly performed into the nineteenth century, and was often part of the cruelty of a signed 2 year limited indenture: 2 years after the lobotomy you were either dead, or too stupid to object to continued plow horse status.
Mental illness causes cover the entire set of causal domains, diet, body, mind, spirits, communities, and environments. But medicine treats the body and ignores the other five - and also ignores cures. What happens when depression, for example is cured by dietary changes? It was malnutrition, not depression. What if it is cured by removing a toxic drug? It was poisoning, not depression. What if the cure is moving away from an abuser? It was abuse, not depression.
Cured is not medically defined for ANY mental disorder. An illness cured by addressing the cause, was caused by the cause - not a mental illness. This leads to a profitable treatment paradigm, an ongoing issue become stream, selling drugs that cannot cure - cure being impossible.

"Madicine" is great! I'll be stealing this.
Yeah it's not SSRIs, those are pretty frakked up cause they target serotonin which is your shut down / sleep neurotransmitter.
Tons of stuff is connected to serotonin...

Thanks for this! Psychiatry's pseudoscientific nonsense can't be critiqued and dismantled loudly enough.
I think tympaning could make a comeback if we just encourage things in that direction a little bit…..
Who's with me? XD
