This whole conversation is heartbreaking at every level. It is necessary that somehow we need to start addressing nutritional needs of children a the earliest possible age. We know we cannot always address their emotional needs which are often hidden under a blanket of fear and abuse. And we must be careful that we never add more burden. Maybe it will be possible that pediatricians and other M.D.ss will be trained to spot nutritional deficiencies and be able to address the problem without fear of retaliation from allopathic medicine. We must be organized in that direction without always being confrontational. Being confrontational only stirs the hornets’ nest but sometimes is necessary. We must gather FACTS to accompany our opinions.

Great real science

In the early 1900s many doctors had taken note that people who were said to have become severely mentally ill would have complete recoveries with only pleasant surroundings and good food. We don’t have that food today. We now have GM high pesticide processed food that is irradiated and then mostly micro waved.

In 1950 only one in five hundred was said to have a mental illness and a large percentage of those were allowed to have a full recovery. Today after all drugs the number of mentally ill is said to have risen to one in fifty however the Mds now constantly try to get old and young on a psychiatric drug as they continue to demonize and openly attack vitamins and minerals.

The discovery of the essential vitamins and nutrients for human life and the ability to test their levels in the body is real science.

Psychiatric drugs are not a healing treatment. Psychiatric drugs only damage and disable the brain, internal organs, cardiovascular and hormonal systems as they deplete the vitamins and nutrients. This is especially destructive for young children that are trying to learn and who have brains that will not be fully developed until the age of 25.

Does the USA need this? No, the former Soviet Union has no such mass drugging labeling and hyper phychophobic disabling of its children before their brains ever get a chance to develop.

These are lethal treatment’s inhumane treatment and a human-American constitutional right violation that should not be used on the worst criminals. Ignorance or complacency is never going to change that.

I am a high school teacher…I often witness students expressing the negative side effects of these drugs during class. I have one ninth grader who will laugh and look as if she is having a conversation with someone; I have another who is pretty much zombied out…;another who look to have constant disorientation going on; a common thread for these students is they are angry…so I try not to irritate them… Teaching is no longer fun or safe because of students. The worst part is that these parents encourage, support these drugs because it is easier on them than to have to deal with their child’s personality.

One of the entitlements of the health care reform act called the Mother’s Act is for funds to be available to psychiatry andpharmaceuticals to set up shop in the schools and continue their assurance of making money by evaluating and treating children on the school campus.

I’m stuck. Every year my parents have me incacerated. have tried to beat them to it by checking into private clinics and have been sectioned and hundcuffed whilst buying newspapers with a nurse twice and picked up by the police when all my reports say i was managable.
Pls note not in an an ambulance but a criminal van. I have been going round in circles. all my friends have dropped me, have been seriously vegetated on forced drugs, had my looks stolen having turned into a puffer fish and lose work as soon as they get hold of the gossip. i live on a tiny island. My lwayers don’t want to litigate and have tried many as my parents are very affluential and friends with the minister of health etc. the most i could do was draw up a contract with a dr to state i wld like to be treated at home but my parents won’t comly. I’m fucked. how am I going to change this pattern. been illegaly icacerated on the island and despite my several degrees can’t realy get work. just got unfair dismissal a few days ago coz they heard i was in a nut house. If this pattern is to continue, after 15years I’d like to put a gun to my head but I have a son, and my parents wld only do the same to him. HELP!

Finally, a sensible approach to medical treatment of mental illness. As someone who survived the deplorable and fraudulent practices of psychiatric drugging as a teen, I am tremendously relieved to see a psychiatrist who is actually deserving of the designation “physician.”

This was a good one. Basically what Dr. Cass had said, does happen in our daily life. So, this fact cannot be ignored that the psychiatrists do take advantage of their sitting at the other end of the table.

Very nice to see one of the few psychiatrists with good intentions speaking out about these things. If we keep up the work with wiping out psychiatry people like Dr Cass can step in with workable methods as the one’s she describes. I guess though that there must be agreed to give it a new name. “Psychiatry” has for a very long time been the equivalent to evilness and greed.

Thanks Dr Cass for being a person who truly want to help.

Thank you Dr. Cass, wish my beloved Aaron could have known you. Too bad you are a “rare commodity” in the psychiatric profession.

Great video. I like the analogy of the bandaid. I have seen my sister and mother coming off a drug and it was not fun. To make things worse the psychiatrist said – see you need the drugs. That is your mental illness returning. Thanks for putting this information out there.

Amen and Amen. I know what this woman is saying is true because I’ve lived 20 years with a family member who has been mistreated and abused with forced psychiatric treatment. Thank God for this doctor who is telling, what we have come to know as truth, by personal experience.
