  • Summary

  • Did you know that mental illness was invented? First came the "discovery" of so-called brain diseases that were caused by a chemical imbalance for which there is no test to prove even exists... then came the marketing of the drugs to "treat" the disease. Mental illness was invented, as was the DSM, to give psychiatrists more credibility and, with the index of diagnosis codes, hundreds of ways to bill insurance for "treatment" of their patients. Psychiatrists do not get paid unless there is a diagnosis! Simply making an appointment is often seen as a sign of "mental illness" and it's the first step in getting you hooked into the machine -- dependent on artificial chemicals (drugs) that damage your brain and perpetuate your dependency on psychiatry.
