Call for retraction of three fraudulent trial reports of antidepressants in children and adolescents that seriously underreported suicide attempts, other suicidal events, and precursors to suicide and violence on active drug and exaggerated the benefits https://t.co/3zEFUpY22K

With antipsychotics about to double their market share (yikes!), get a unique & disturbing view into the behind-the-scenes health-politics of these drugs from "The Zyprexa Papers" by leading anti-forced-drugging lawyer Jim Gottstein @jimgottstein https://t.co/5Guztkp1gr

Sexual dysfunction while on SSRIs. In >1000 patients with no previous history of sexual problems, 59% reported sexual dysfunction after commencing an antidepressant. For the five most commonly used drugs, 46% experienced no orgasm or ejaculation. https://t.co/u4Sh4rGdEu

Yet another cholesterol lowering drug for over $400 per month. There is no convincing relationship between lowering LDL-cholesterol and cardiac deaths. It is long overdue to dismiss this hypothesis https://t.co/l6rCCkBwcc Regulate the foot industry instead of touting pills.

“The essential fuel of psychiatry’s bigotry is the arrogant belief by psychiatrists that their discomfort over humans different from themselves justifies declarations as to which human behaviors are deemed ‘mental illnesses.’” https://t.co/YYtAf2uZqS

[Rob Wipond @robwipond]

A child recently told me of a horrifying #988Lifeline experience. Covertly tracing someone's call against their will & forcing them into a psychiatric hospital only works--at best--once. Forever after, they know. Forever after, they're wary of reaching out or confiding in anyone.

[ISEPP @ISEPPDirector]

Yes, it will change psychiatry by removing cases like this from psychiatry and letting real medical specialties handle them. https://t.co/8flyxOjPuV

"The most difficult problems...involve the involuntary nature of the care being called for & the flawed antipsychotic medications that are the mainstay of treatment for people dealing with the symptoms of psychosis..."

Our paper on systematic human rights violations in Alaska where psychiatric patients are forced by the court in sham trials to take drugs and doses that are dangerous has been published online today. You can read the full study report here: https://t.co/fwWuJdLdJv

This is my recent interview on the Designed to Heal Podcast with Dr. Ben Ralls. We mainly talk about the mental health system, rather than focusing on my book, #TheZyprexaPapers.

When psychiatrists don’t lie about a chemical imbalance causing depression, they often say the cause is unknown. Wrong. People get depressed because they have depressing lives. Job loss, relationship breakdown and physical illness are strong predictors https://t.co/KNGfb1VIIn

"What does it mean to have a reaction that is 'out of proportion' to being placed in shackles? Is there a 'normal' way for a person to behave when stripped of freedom & locked in a cell?"

I just found out this interview by Nick Fortino for Psychology Is has been posted. https://t.co/TrpxfmnCVe I think it is one of my better ones. #TheZyprexaPapers

Psychiatric patients are forced by the court in sham trials to take drugs and doses that are dangerous. Human rights violations in Alaska ignore previous Supreme Court rulings. The power imbalance and abuse are extreme. See our preprint research paper https://t.co/fdE31iC07U
