This page is about anti psychiatry and anti big pharma news and memes. I promise to not talk about politics. I follow back


I don’t want Fauci to go to jail for lying to Congress! I want him to have the appropriate punishment for Mass Murder!



It's a difficult time for Critical Psychiatry where their idol is getting systematically taken apart by the likes of @tylerblack32, @Rozewicz, @ompsychiatrist, @awaisaftab and many others. @sanilrege @DrAnnieHickox @jonathanstea /1







After figuring out the psych drugs had disabled me and the psychiatrist did not want me to stop taking them bc I "would be so much worse". Years later, off the drugs and recovered I realized the "I would be so much worse" was bc the Doctor did in fact know these drugs cause physical dependence/neuroadaptation. I never went back during withdrawal. I knew I'd be lied too.










I can understand this is a difficult time for my psychiatry colleagues. I am sure they all have good intentions, but it turns out that the most widely used psychiatric treatment, antidepressants, causes significant iatrogenic effects (e.g. severe withdrawal reactions, PSSD), is not very effective (at best) and does not target an underlying biological abnormality after all. Although many people still seek a psychiatric diagnosis and a medical approach, increasing numbers highlight how misleading and disabling this approach can be. Their voices are starting to be heard, and we need to work with them to provide help for people who have been harmed by psychiatric treatment, and to prevent more harm being done. Trying to shoot the messenger doesn’t help anyone.
