The status and authority of bio-psychiatry is mostly derived from the medical symbols it deploys (rather than its clinical outcomes). These symbols endow poor interventions with legitimacy & power while misleading us as to the nature of the distress the model purports to treat.

@FatEmperor They all withdrew from psychiatric research because the term “evidence based” came into use. They needed some other nonsense to keep $$$ flow. The only logical question left is WHEN to fine them into nationalisation and control / ethics.
@FatEmperor Poor pharma need this. If you stop them who is going to fund the next generation of breakthrough (falsified / ghost written trials) wonder chemicals. #moralhazard
(Any witness to 5 decades of psychiatric drug fraud is surprised by the surprise)
Biological psychiatry in its attempts to legitimize itself as a medical specialty has wrongly diagnosed a growing number of people w/ psychiatric disorders. The consequences have been devastating. The mass drugging of emotional distress is now a crime against humanity.
If you’re a woman ‘showing signs of mental health issues’, STOP and think:
- What is hurting you?
- Who hurt you?
- What are you scared of?
- What is oppressing you?
- Do you feel trapped by something?
- Who abused you?
- What is distressing you?
- What is overwhelming you?
