What is 'informed consent'?

Garth Daniels can give informed consent, but he has said No he doesn't want ECT. He's said this not once, but reiterated it numerous times over 20 years.

Australia has signed and ratified the UN CRPD that says you’re supposed to take all means to get consent, not dismiss a person who doesn’t agree to what the psychiatrist orders and go ahead with the intrusive experimental procedure again and again.

When can a person diagnosed with 'mental illness' say 'no' to a psychiatrist and be recognised, as having the ability to give consent, but not agreeing to give it?

Doctors should not be allowed to rule peoples lives, Doctors should not be allowed to order treatment that is clearly not wanted. What is going on in our legal system & our medical system? It's appalling!

Australia, you monsters, of course Garth Daniels can give informed consent, but he has said No he doesn't want ECT.

'Australia ratified the Convention on 17 July 2008, and it entered into force for Australia on 16 August 2008.' (UN)

'No one in Australia is subjected to medical or scientific experimentation without their free and informed consent'? Rubbish. Over 6 million people have been enslaved as human laboratory animals by psychiatry. It's a holocaust.

In 2013 UN concluding observations for Australia - '25. The Committee recommends that the State party effectively use the current inquiry to take immediate steps to replace substitute decision-making with supported decision-making and that it provide a wide range of measures which respect a person’s autonomy, will and preferences and are in full conformity with article 12 of the Convention, including with respect to a person 's right, in his or her own capacity, to give and withdraw informed consent for medical treatment, to access justice, to vote, to marry and to work.'
&
'27.The Committee is concerned at the lack of training for judicial officers, legal practitioners and court staff on ensuring access to justice for persons with disabilities, as well as the lack of guidance on access to justice for persons with disabilities. The Committee is further concerned that access to sign language interpreters or the use of Augmentative and Alternative Modes of Communication is not supported in all Australian states and territories.'
&

'Freedom from torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (art. 15)

35.The Committee is concerned that persons with disabilities, particularly those with intellectual impairment or psychosocial disability, are subjected to unregulated behaviour modification or restrictive practices such as chemical, mechanical and physical restraints and seclusion, in various environments, including schools, mental health facilities and hospitals.

36. The Committee recommends that the State party take immediate steps to end such practices , including by establishing an independent national preventive mechanism to monitor places of detention — such as mental health facilities, special schools, hospitals, disability justice centres and prisons — , in order to ensure that persons with disabilities , including psychosocial disabilities , are not subjected to intrusive medical interventions.'

Garth Daniels was meant to get justice today, in the Supreme Court, justice being Freedom from Torture. And I mean, real torture, State Violence so horrific it disables the person, disfigures their memory and prior abilities. 96 electric shocks, forced poisons, tied to a bed for 69 days... and all this for a fellow that hasn't committed a crime. Garth Daniels is one of the few of the over 6 million Australians, subjected to psychiatry, willing to go public and fight for the rights of us all.

Give Garth Daniels and his family some support! More people, means more possibility that Garth won't be murdered by psychiatry and have the whole thing dismissed as 'giving the best medicine they could provide' (as they so often do to people psychiatry kills). Go to the page #FreeGarthDaniels on FaceBook & support! share! make the population aware!

Psychiatry is according to Peter Gotzsche 'Organised crime'. Australia needs to recognise that, and stop the monster that is psychiatry.

Psychiatry isn't medicine, it does not enable anyone, if you think it is, you're extremely naïve.


#FreeGarthDaniels before Australian authorities kill him.

Informed Consent for psychiatrists

I think the key here is that when a person 'refuses treatment' they are then diagnosed as being 'not be able to give informed consent.' They are then threatened with a more severe treatment like electroshock, longer commitment, added drugs, higher dose... until the person says exactly what they've been told they must agree to, or else. If the person then gets more and more disabled by the torture and complains, the label 'treatment resistant' is given. Which would be incredibly humorous in a comedy skit, if it weren't for the fact that so many people are being tortured to death by psychiatry every minute of the day. Of course the person is resisting the torturous treatments! People don't like being enslaved as laboratory animals. Medicine is meant to enable, not disable!

For those people who end up as Plainsfolk in advertisements for diabolical psychiatric torture procedures, think of any regime and how it uses its victims for propaganda routines to validate their horror as 'goodness.'

(from Insight SBS 2013 electroshock promo show, repeated recently in an awful campaign to make this brain bleeding device Class 2, the same as eye-glasses.)
'There are a group of people, as we've heard that because of the nature of their illness are so unwell, that they have no idea what their illness is about, and no idea what treatments work and no idea what the side-effects are to be and so on'... they're called psychiatrists.

Let's look at, say if...

A PSYCHIATRIST HAD A SELF-EXAMINATION ROUTINE

 • Does the psychiatrist know what is happening?

 Not really. For instance the psychiatrist admits that they don't know how ECT works, they have no conclusive way of proving their diagnosis. No, the psychiatrist doesn't know what is happening at all, just that they'll get some $$$ if they do as the pharma says.

 • Can the psychiatrist weigh up the information?

 No, the psychiatrists leaves the drug weighing to the chemist.

 • Does the psychiatrist appreciate that they've got an illness?

 No, the psychiatrist believes they are a physician to the soul.

 • Does the psychiatrist recognise the array of treatments available in relation to the treatment of that illness?

 No, the psychiatrist narrowly focuses on assisted-harm as a cure and has done so for over 200 years, since they took over from the witchhunters. A psychiatrist doesn't recognise being kind, listening, or validating grief as treatments, the psychiatrist only sees profit in cruel treatments as the 'array.'

Therefore the psychiatrist cannot give informed consent according to their own belief of how-to obtain Informed Consent.
