Full circle ADHD treatment

[Prince Arthur]

It must be the wet dream of these eugenics psychopaths to have sadistic psychiatrists sentence promising poor kids to ADHD, drug them senseless with amphetamines (ritalin)... and there you have the proof that the low classes are "inferior" to the elite....

@ FS - Great research as always - thanks.

Mental health care sounds soo much better than torturing innocent people into submission! Don't you agree?

In 1971, the Behavior Research Institute was founded by Matthew Israel in Providence, Rhode Island and in 1976 he opened new centres in Massachusetts and California..
The Behavior Research Institute specialised (and still does) in torturing the "special needs" residents.

In 1981, the first resident died at the institute and an investigation was started that revealed countless acts of abuse against the residents, both physical and psychological torture. Residents were humiliated, beaten, restrained, and denied food. After the investigation, the institute was banned from torturing and withholding food for punishment.
So far, 6 residents have died of preventable causes since 1971.
In 1994, the Institute changed its name to the Judge Rotenberg Educational Center in honour of the judge who helped to keep the torture program running.

The Rotenberg Center states that the GED shocking device is only used as a “last resort to prevent violent or self-injurious behavior when positive behavioral support had failed”.
Torturing "special need" kids, to prevent the children from hurting themselves?!?

In 2006, it was reported that the GED device was regularly used for:
Failing to be neat;
Wrapping one’s foot around the leg of a chair;
Stopping work for more than 10 seconds;
Closing one’s eyes for more than 5 seconds;

Using the bathroom without permission;
Urinating on oneself after being refused the right to use the bathroom;
Screaming while being shocked;
Trying to remove the GED.

To top it all, recently a court ruled that the Center can continue torturing special needs kids.

In another strange twist, Matthew Israel set up an entire Wizard Of Oz theme at the facility. MK-ULTRA victims have complained about Wizard Of Oz themes in mind control programming, which often used electric shocks.


Is it just another "coincidence" that in the film Return To Oz, Dorothy is hooked up to an electrical shock device: http://www.renegadetribune.com/jewish-c ... -children/

I don't know why, but I had my doubts COVID denialist, lockdown sceptic, antivaxxer Andrew Kaufman, who denies that any viruses cause disease.
When I learned he is a psychiatrist that was almost enough to convince me...

Then I found the following interview with Kaufman by Thomas Cowan, and thought maybe he is a good "truther" after all.
Kaufman gives some honest criticism of psychiatry, which is arguably more his expertise than infectious diseases.

See the following video and 2 quotes of things he said:

Well I started just questioning it and didn’t wanna participate and then at some point I refused to do it. And I’ve gone through that kind of evolution where many times over as I found injustices with psychiatric medications. You know at first I was forced to prescribe them as a trainee because that was the standard of care. And then all my subsequent clinical work, that was the main function of a psychiatrist. But as I uncovered that, first, I saw the medicines were not helpful. And then I started realizing that they were harmful. And this was when I scrutinized the research literature and then compared it with my own experiences I started seeing that there was consistency here and those respects but that’s not what the main authorities of medicine would be saying about it but that’s what was in the actual research finding.
(...)

I wanna look at objective outcome measures. So in other words, like something tangible that’s improved in a person’s life. Like if they’re depressed and they can’ function, they can’t shop or grocery so take care of their kids or go to work, well I wanna see them resume doing those things. If they have a horrible conflict in their important relationships in their life, I wanna see that relationship improved. Right? All of those aspects and that’s not what I’m seeing at all. Surely with antidepressants I never saw that. I don’t want to give the impression that no psychiatric drugs ever work in any person… There are some very limited examples but they’re rare and they’re probably overused and overgeneralized. But with antidepressants no, I’ve never seen one person have a true benefit from an antidepressant.

Recently a so-called "umbrella review" was published to conclude that there is no evidence whatsoever that depression is caused by low serotonin levels. As the supposed psychiatric drugs supposedly prevent depression based on the bogus theory that depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain (low serotonin levels), the automatic conclusion is that these drugs could never work (at preventing depression that is).
I have to say that an "umbrella reviews" isn't the best of "scientific" study; it is a review not of genuine studies but of meta-analyses. I think this is one step too far. What's next a review of "umbrella review"? I guess that this was done to save time...

See the following excerpt from the study (in case you're wondering; SERT = serotonin transporter protein).

Our comprehensive review of the major strands of research on serotonin shows there is no convincing evidence that depression is associated with, or caused by, lower serotonin concentrations or activity. Most studies found no evidence of reduced serotonin activity in people with depression compared to people without, and methods to reduce serotonin availability using tryptophan depletion do not consistently lower mood in volunteers.

High quality, well-powered genetic studies effectively exclude an association between genotypes related to the serotonin system and depression, including a proposed interaction with stress.

Weak evidence from some studies of serotonin 5-HT1A receptors and levels of SERT points towards a possible association between increased serotonin activity and depression. However, these results are likely to be influenced by prior use of antidepressants and its effects on the serotonin system [30, 31]. The effects of tryptophan depletion in some cross-over studies involving people with depression may also be mediated by antidepressants, although these are not consistently found [63].

They looked both at (meta analyses of) studies that looked at whether depressed people had lower serotin levels than controls, and whether arificially lowering serotin levels would make people depressed.

Co-author Mark Horowitz said:

I had been taught that depression was caused by low serotonin in my psychiatry training and had even taught this to students in my own lectures.

In the meantime there has been a huge increase in the use of antidepressants, with severe adverse effects, that could only work if the "chemical imbalance" theory would be correct.
Prescriptions for antidepressants are skyrocketing. See the rise in antidepressants in England for teens that have risen by a quarter from 2016 to 2020.

The most common hypothesis of the cause of Alzheimer’s disease is "a build-up of amyloid beta plaques in the brain". This has been the common "scientific" concensus since 2006. Wouldn't you know that this "seminal research paper" was concocted through manipulated data.

An investigation found that the shown images of amyloid beta in mice were doctored, pieced together photos from different experiments (sort of like photoshopping), which is “extremely serious” scientific fraud.
As one critic noted, “The obtained experimental results might not have been the desired results and that data might have been changed to … better fit a hypothesis”...

The manipulation of the images was spotted by neuroscientist Matthew Schrag of Vanderbilt University, Tennessee, who noticed the anomalies while investigating an experimental Alzheimer’s drug.
The Minnesota authors have defended their "research", the claims are further investigated by the NIH.

Since 2006, big pharma, universities, and research institutions - following this manipulated study - have spent billions - and failed - to get drugs approved to clear the brain of amyloid: https://archive.ph/jYMXu

A person with or without a mental disease can be legally locked up in an asylum psychiatric hospital if a single psychiatrist says they could harm themselves or others because of a mental disorder.
With the result that ten thousands become victims of insane psychiatrists that torture them until they are drugged senseless to the point they can't function at all.

From 1984 to 2022, psychiatric detentions in the UK have more than quadrupled from 12,130 to 53,239 victims per year, the fastest increase in Europe. The UK government has planned to forcibly torture 70,000 psychiatric victims a year within a decade. This could be you (or your relative or friend)...
I find it especially troubling that so many young people (in their early 20s or even teenagers) become the victim of insane psychiatrists, being scarred for life by the chemical lobotomies of the new and "improved" psychiatric drugs...

The ever rising number of tortured psychiatric victims (in the best traditions of Stalin's gulags or MKULTRA) is caused by basically blackmailing doctors by our legal system that protects the big criminals while it punishes the innocent.
If one of their patients becomes violent or suicidal, which can be caused by psychiatric drugs, the doctors can be sued for neglect if they didn't get them under psychiatric "care". According to one study, 87.5% of doctors violated the oath of Hippocrates, by helping their patients become the victims of psychiatrists, as a defensive medicine against being sued.
Keir Harding commented: "Patients aren’t being detained to offer better quality care, it’s to avoid risk by moving them away".

To make things even worse, the NHS has reduced the number of beds in psychiatric hospitals from 23,447 to 17,610 from since 2010 to 2021 (while increasing the number of innnocent victims locked up).
With the result that these psychiatric victims are now locked up and tortured under the care of private psychiatric wards that are even worse and lock up their victims for 359 days on average, compared to 197 days on NHS wards. This costs the taxpayer £2 billion a year...

Also strange that not so long ago a scientific study showed that the the chemical imbalance theory for depression is bogus, and we now get a new (even worse?) fast-acting antidepressant Auvelity that has already been approved in the US, instead of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which cause depression, suicides and violent outbursts.
It isn't even claimed that Auvelity has any long term efficacy (against depression that is), but instead this drug was approved after a clinical trial of a mere 327 test subjects, of which the drugged patients said their "symptoms significantly improved" within a week. Never mind the severe adverse "side" effects.

Of course this doesn't prove that their depression improved after a month, or even in a "week". You can just as well ask a homeless beggar if he feels better on drugs and alcohol. If he says yes, this then "proves" that these substances reduce depression: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/arti ... rists.html

One of the sub-topics in this thread is that psychiatry is designed for population control, including drugging talented poor children senseless, to prove that the lower classes are inferior (that's eugenics). Of course they especially want to neutralise those anti-authoritarian children that could grow up to be rebels and upset the pyramid of control.

So in 1980, Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) was added to the DSM-III disorders. When children (or young adults) display 4 out of the following 8 defiance of authorities symptoms "often" in the last 6 months, they can be sentenced to ODD: loses temper; touchy or easily annoyed; angry and resentful; argues with authority figures; actively defies or refuses to comply with requests from authority figures or with rules; deliberately annoys others; blames others for his or her mistakes or misbehavior; spitefulness or vindictiveness.

Many ODD victims get poisoned with psychiatric drugs including antipsychotics with severe adverse effects. These of course have no positive effects (unless you count walking around as a zombie as an improvement), so the adverse effects are THE effects.
Personally I think that our Brave new world would be a better place if more people would stand up to authorities that do us harm...

In the early 1980s, the ODD diagnosis was criticised as medicalisation of normal behaviour of children, but these days drugging rebellious kids "of low socioeconomic status" is considered "normal" by insane psychiatrists.
Other invented similar labels have been added to the DSM that can be used to sentence anti-authoritarian kids to non-existent mental disorders and drug them senseless, like: Conduct disorder (CD) and (the well-known) Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

I’ve read an interesting book from 2004 on big pharma, “Medicines out of control? Antidepressants and the conspiracy of goodwill”.
The main flaw with this book is its title. Its main topic is how big pharma uses marketing tactics to gain control over and corrupt health regulators and medical trials and fool doctors and patients. This isn’t specific to psychiatry but generic to big pharma.
That’s not even counting that it calls medical malpractice “goodwill”!

One of the interesting subtopics briefly addressed in the book is the beneficial effect of placebos. If so many patients benefit from placebos, why isn’t this effect taken/studied more seriously?

With the “antidepressants” in the book title, it is fitting that there is much information on those kind of drugs.
Because the main (adverse) effects of antidepressants described are addiction and withdrawal effects, it’s almost like this is the only adverse reaction of psychiatric drugs. This is NOT specific to antidepressants of course. I think that these effects are an intentional strategy by big pharma as the only way to make their destructive drugs seem beneficial.

But if you read carefully also some of the other important adverse effects of antidepressants are described (but most of them only addressed briefly).

I didn’t find a freely readable version of this book on the internet, this is the “best” summary of the book I found; Charles Medawar and Anita Hardon – “Medicines out of control? Antidepressants and the conspiracy of goodwill” (2004): https://ps.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10. ... .58.2.275a


An interesting adverse reaction to antidepressants (briefly described in the previously mentioned book), is suppression of libido, this isn’t limited to antidepressants but is also caused by antipsychotics.
And I also think that this is an intentionally designed effect of these drugs (possibly to reduce the amount of babies being born)…
.

Depression and antidepressant medications can cause symptoms such as low libido, vaginal dryness, and erectile dysfunction. People may also find it more difficult to have an orgasm, or may not have orgasms at all.

Research indicates these sexual side effects are quite common. In fact, studies suggest that between 50% to 70% of people taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) experience some form of sexual dysfunction.

Antipsychotics can cause a raising of the body's level of a hormone called prolactin. In women, this can lead to an increase in breast size and irregular periods. In men, it can lead to impotence and the development of breasts. Most of the typical antipsychotic drugs, risperidone (Risperidal) and amisulpride have the worst effect.

Recently I’ve been reading about (the negative effects of) steroids abuse which made me realise that the adverse effects of antipsychotics include blocking testosterone and possibly also producing more female hormones. These adverse effects are comparable to some of the withdrawal effects of (stopping) steroid abuse, including depression and psychotic episodes.

Antipsychotics disrupt the production of hormones in general (not just testosterone). This will also completely disrupt the normal development if adolescents (or even younger children) are poisoned with these psychiatric drugs. My wild guess is that other psychiatric drugs also disrupt hormone production. This of course guarantees mental health problems, which can then be used by the insane psychiatrists to justify their torturing practices (the worse the adverse effects are, the better they can justify the psychiatric treatment…).
So another example of psychiatric “medicines” causing the mental “disorders” they should cure. How these psychiatrists can distinguish between the original mental disorder and the same disorder caused by the drugs they poison their patients/victims with, is something I just cannot figure out.


The following study shows that antipsychotics block the normal production of hormones (in both males and females). Which results in “sexual dysfunction” and can cause “psychotic symptoms”.

Sexual dysfunction is common in patients taking antipsychotics- more than twice as common as in healthy controls, and greater in patients taking antipsychotics than unmedicated schizophrenic patients and patients with affective disorders. The CATIE study has recently highlighted that sexual function is commonly impaired in patients taking atypical as well as typical antipsychotic treatment.
A number of factors may play a role in impairing sexual dysfunction in patients taking antipsychotic treatment, including ‘negative’ and co-morbid depressive symptoms, the anticholinergic and adrenergic effects of antipsychotics, and higher rates of smoking and physical illness. It has long been supposed, however, that prolactin elevation and low gonadal hormone levels are significant factors underlying the high rates of sexual dysfunction seen in patients treated with antipsychotics. Prolactin may impair sexual function through its actions on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis altering sex hormone release.
…

High rates of sexual dysfunction were found in patients, and their sexual function was impaired compared to healthy controls and indeed was similar to that seen in attendees at a sexual dysfunction clinic, indicating that clinically significant sexual dysfunction is common in patients taking antipsychotics. High rates of hyperprolactinemia and hypogonadism were found in males and females.
Ninety-two per cent of pre-menopausal women and 27.7% of men showed biochemical hypogonadism. Estradiol, and progesterone levels were found to be much lower than the normal reference range in pre-menopausal women and approached those of the post-menopausal women, indicating impaired ovulation and fertility. Of the pre-menopausal women, over half showed progesterone levels that were very low: below the lower limit of the progesterone range in the follicular phase; and over a third showed estradiol levels below the lower limit of the range in the follicular phase.
…

The high rates of hypogonadism are of particular concern given the association between low sex hormone levels and osteoporosis, infertility and cardiovascular disease. Low sex hormone levels have also been linked with exacerbation of psychotic symptoms in patients with schizophrenia.

Apparently Risperdal/risperidone (that is known to cause the growth of female breasts in some men/boys) blocks testosterone even more than other antipsychotics.

At initial evaluation the mean serum prolactin and inhibin B levels were markedly higher, whereas testosterone level was lower in patients treated with risperidone, than in those treated with olanzapine. In 5 out of 50 subjects from risperidone group (10%) and in 1 from olanzapine group (2.6%) testosterone levels were below the lower limit (<241 ng/ml), which reflected Leydig’s cell impairment. In one patient receiving risperidone and in three receiving olanzapine, inhibin B level was below 80 pg/ml, indicating Sertoli’s cell dysfunction. At the final evaluation the mean serum prolactin level was markedly higher in patients taking risperidone, whereas their FSH levels were lower than in patients receiving olanzapine.
…

Our study of endocrine action of two antipsychotics in male schizophrenic patients demonstrated prominent influences of drug type on pituitary and gonadal hormone level. Administration of risperidone caused higher PRL elevation than olanzapine. Treatment with this medication can be associated with disturbances in reproductive hormones (testosterone) and gonadotropins (FSH) levels. Treatment with both medications can affect gonadal functioning either through risperidone-induced PRL elevation.

.

Risperidone drug used in treatment patients with Schizophrenia was lowering the level of testosterone hormone. And also there was association between testosterone with blood glucose, uric acid, age and duration of disease.
…

The study found that most patients with Schizophrenia treated with risperidone were had signicantly low testosterone levels (53%) while the rest of them stayed within the normal range level (47%).

The following video is mostly an interesting first hand description of the adverse effects of antipsychotics (I’m surprised it hasn’t been deleted by Youtube… yet).
The main thing I don’t understand is that this “nurse” explains the torture of psychiatric patients, but doesn’t show any remorse about his active involvement in these crimes against humanity (instead blaming big pharma). Is that because he has no conscience or has he become about as “zombified” as the psychiatric victims on antipsychotics?!?

My wild guess is that other psychiatric drugs also disrupt hormone production.

So another example of psychiatric “medicines” causing the mental “disorders” they should cure.

Not very surprising, the most popular psychiatric drugs - depression-causing SSRI “antidepressants” - also lower testosterone levels, besides effecting other hormones in the body.
All 6 SSRIs tested decreased testosterone levels and increased the ratio of estrogen to testosterone.

In both men and women, low testosterone causes “decreased mood”, so depression: https://www.healthline.com/health/depre ... stosterone

With insane psychiatrists getting trained to diagnose behaviour as “mental disorders” it is obvious that the (main) reason for the rapid rise in “autism rates” all over the developed world – is an explosion of misdiagnoses (my wild guess is that this won’t be evaluated in RFK Jr’s autism cover-up investigation…).

In 1962, the first DSM manual for sentencing lower classes to mental disorders as an efficient way of eugenics was published. It contained about 60 mental disorders; the current DSM edition has more than 300!!!
Who could have guessed that this caused the number of “psychiatric patients” to rise?!?

In the early 1990s, Allen Frances spearheaded the DSM-4 task force that, in his own words, further “loosened the definition of autism”.
Frances has apologised and is “very sorry for helping to lower the diagnosis bar” as DSM-IV has:

contributed to the creation of diagnostic fads that resulted in the massive over-diagnosis of autistic disorders in children and adults”.
Careful field testing suggested the new definition would just triple the rate. Instead it quickly multiplied almost 100 fold. More clinicians began labeling both normal diversity and a variety of other psychological problems as autistic.

Who could have guessed that this has caused the “autism rates” to rise?!?

In 2013, today’s DSM-5 was released that according to Frances:

The DSM-5 loosened the diagnosis of autism even more by introducing the concept of autistic spectrum, thus further obscuring the boundary between mental disorder and normal diversity.

.
Laurent Mottron added that the DSM-V, is full of:

vague and trivial definitions and ambiguous language that ensures more people fall into various, abnormal categories.
It associates autism, which now exists on a spectrum, with a reduction of social interest, which can result from an indefinite number of psychological and societal issues.

Who could have guessed that this caused “Autism Spectrum Disorder rates” to rise?!?

In the early 1980s, the autism rate was 5.5 per 100,000.
After the DSM-4 was published in 1994, in 1997 the “autism rate” shot up to 45 per 100,000.

By 2007, 1 in 150 children were diagnosed with autism.
In 2023, 2,778 per 100,000 children (1 in 36) are sentenced to “Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)”, a 500 times increase (!!!) since the early 1980s.

Frances commented:

Although people often benefit from an accurate diagnosis of autism, an inaccurate diagnosis can cause harmful stigma, hopelessness, reduced expectations, and misdirected treatment. Because the diagnosis of autism is so consequential and so frequently carelessly done, parents and adult patients should always get a second opinion whenever possible.

A widely used autism test for adults in the UK - Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ10) - is completely 'unreliable':

Given that the tool lacks reliability, it is possible that it may not be doing the screening/flagging process as well as we’d like, with knock-on consequences for autism diagnosis and research.

.
It looks to me that anybody can be sentenced to Autism Spectrum Disorder through this AQ10 test depending on your mood of the day: https://archive.is/Ooeib
