Awareness of the term ‘mental illness’


What does it mean to have your mentality deemed ill? What does it mean to then have that ‘confirmed’ by the appointed ‘expert’? Does the majority of the population know what it is to be accused of something behind closed doors, that means you can be dragged off, confined and tortured twenty-four seven, without charge, without a court of law, without anything but that finger point and confirmation of ‘mental-illness’ given by a white-coat rubbing their greedy hands together with glee of transforming 13 billion in tax payers money into their enigma regime, that talks up how it ‘cares’, and how close they have been for the last 200 years to a ‘cure’, since the invention of the endlessly spinning chair, the ice-baths and burning rods, poisons, surgical mockery, and various adaptions of electrocution and seizure inducing routines.

                A variety of different punishments are employed in 2016 for those found mentally ill by ‘experts’ are used on the mentally ill including: forced commitment in a public hospital, poisoning under the guise of ‘medicine’, electroshock, mechanical holds, psychosurgery, verbal abuse, and threat of further punishment if a confession of being mentally ill and being in need of psychiatric treatments is not reached.

                Does the Medical Association even think how psychiatrists have brought their profession into disrepute? Do they do anything to stop the torture of quarter of the population? No, they just hush it up, lest they be called in to pay compensation for their incompetence over the last two centuries when they allowed for the witch hunter’s torturers to join their profession and call them mentality ill souls, instead of talking up a bedevilled souls. The claim of ‘madness’ or ‘insanity’ now turned into ‘illness’, as if calling a person’s mentality ‘ill’ is legitimate, when it’s a crime against a person’s perception.  



What if there was a Royal Commission, that looked into psychiatric tribunals and, ‘found scarcely one trial conducted legally’? In the same way as in 1700s the witch trials were acknowledged to have no legal substance. Let the expressions of skepticism be heard, as regarding psychiatric diagnosis. Difficulty in proving mental illness according to legal process, means counsellors should be advised to treat psychiatric diagnosis with caution, when taking part in Mental Health Tribunals where the issue is whether a person ‘appears to be mentally ill, or not.’

                While belief that Satan interferes in human affairs directly has begun to wane, people now believe that visions and other percipience is a disease of the brain! The artists of our time are being mauled by psychiatrists, who fry brains and poison bodies, of people which think outside the white-lines drawn to mark out the death of innovation and diversity, humour and creative arts.

Rationalist sceptics of the psychiatric tribunals must come to the opinion that the use of torture had resulted in erroneous testimony from plainsfolk, that just say what they’re told. No one can blame a person for going along with those who threaten our lives, it is just that it doesn’t help society see the propaganda machine, when it is backed up by confessions of mental illness and testimonies of torture being effective treatment for the said illness. This use of torture has been identified as a key factor in converting one accused as mentally ill into a wider social panic, as those being tortured are more likely to accuse a wide array of other local individuals of also being mentally ill.

Let the last execution of electroshock, poisoning, psycho surgery, commitment and mechanical holds, for mental-illness, be in 2016. See the end of the traditional form of  diagnosed mental illness as a legal offense. Those accused under the new act should be restricted to people who falsely pretended to be able to procure medicine, generally being the most dubious methods causing crimes against humanity, via psychiatrisms. Let it be known that lack of material wealth, being quarrelsome and aggressive natured, are not valid reasons to diagnose mentality as ‘ill’ enough to be poisoned, electrocuted, committed and verbally abused until a confession of agreeing with diagnosis is elicited. It is an outrage that such a piece of thuggery exists as the Mental Health Act, that delivers such torture to people it accuses in fraudulent tribunals.

The practical significance of the mental-illnessing mania therefore is that it shifted responsibility for social crisis from both commerce/industry and state to imaginary illness in psychiatric form. Medical authorities, in leading the mental-illnessing, not only exonerate themselves but make themselves indispensable, cementing their power. There is certainly evidence of misogyny in these diagnoses, when women are mentally-illed when exhausted after giving birth and subject to forced treatments and commitment, when women are diagnosed due to their menstrual cycles, or horribly abused by their male partners… There is also a huge component of racism, that attacks 1st Nations peoples of Australia, America and Canada in the diagnosis of visions/ voices and other percipience that make sense to the land and the people and their traditions.

Psychiatry is a pointless persecution. The persecuting culture that has resulted from allowing medical industry to run riot in its use of humans in experimental procedures and money making abuse that keeps the condemned in fear of worse, and the ‘experts’ unchecked and above the law. This state funding of the psychiatric regime for over 200 years in the mass scale torture/ disabling/ murder of those mentally-illed is an example of mass misjudgment, badmouthing and a huge need for revival of common sense among the population in regard to propaganda, and skepticism of medical diagnosis and its treatments that do more harm than good, rather than a hypnotic trust of Doctors, a misguided trust that ignores and condemns those who speak out against being mentally-illed and tortured by the psychiatric regime.

Na, we don’t have psychiatric abuse in Australia, I mean not often… na, na, na, banana sandwich!


 
Na this only happens in the UK, not Australia. Australians care about human rights, not like those horrible psychiatrists in the UK... you think? http://psychiatricabuseuk.com

Na, that only happens in the USA, not Australia, 'cause Australia has good doctors... yeah like that Patel, only psychiatrists are more commonly good at abusing: http://igotbetter.org/stories/m-james

Na, na psychiatric abuse, it only happens in Soviet countries, we don't have that in a democratic country like Australia. We wouldn't forcefully drug innocent civilians, they must be criminal or sick or, you know, people you don't want to know, that can be tortured over years with major tranquilisers that leave their brains damaged: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1376496/

Na, na all these doctors must be Scientologist, oh Peter Breggin is Jewish? um... oops http://www.stopshrinks.org/reading_room/nacp/nacp.html

Na na we're not like China we don't harvest body parts from unwilling prisoners, Australians go to China and receive them, also Australians go to China to test their new psychiatric drugs... on criminals, you know those awful Falun Gong practitioners! www.jaapl.org/content/30/1/126.full.pdf

Na na Australia doesn’t have any WMDs… only psychiatry http://www.jeffpolachek.com/weaponized-psychiatry/89-clippings-on-psychological-warfare

Na na Australian psychiatrists don’t do cover-ups for paedophiles… do they? http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/psychiatric-report-altered-victim-20130304-2fhad.html

Yeah but, yeah but women are weaker than men that’s why there’s more of them in psychiatric wards… we don’t want them PMSing all over the shop! http://www.balcanicaucaso.org/eng/Regions-and-countries/Croatia/Croatia-suspected-psychiatric-abuse-140944

Stop bothering normal people like us, we don’t want to know about suffering, we just want cheesy-pops and movie-stars who play gangsters so we can identify with… We don’t want to know about human rights abuse that can happen to us… we don’t want to know that ugly stuff is happening, just keep those white doors closed and keep calling it ‘good medicine’ and tell anyone who complains to shut up or you’ll get them medicated again… Eff off if you think psychiatrists did things in Nazi Germany, Freud may’ve drugged and sexually abused his patients, but he was Jewish! Even if there were such things as T4 and white-coats, that’s all over now, that’s in the past… http://www.thestreetspirit.org/August2005/mad.htm

Around 2 million Australians every year are forcefully ‘treated’ by psychiatry (drugging, repeated sessions of electroshock under anaesthetic, psychosurgery...) This forced treatment falls under the definition of torture according to the United Nations, of which Australia is a signature to. Another 2.4 million Australians will be coerced into taking psychiatric treatments and ill-informed about the effects of drugs; many being told by their psychiatrists that the drug-effects are ‘symptoms of mental illness’ and rarely are patients told they need to reduce drugs slowly. ‘Nearly half (45%) of the population will experience a mental disorder at some stage in their lives.’ (SANE Australia) What? Half the Australian population have something wrong with their noggins?! Or… as reported about China… Na na na you say… Australia allows protest, just shut up about psychiatric abuse though, or you’ll be shut up! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xt213y_hundreds-of-thousands-victim-of-psychiatric-abuse-in-china-report_news
 
If  you haven't signed this petition please do and pass it on to everyone who doesn't want to know, care to know, doesn't know enough about what's going on in the world. Give them some intelligence! Don't keep Australia dumb, with 45 per cent of us diagnosed as not thinking like a psychiatrist and therefore needing to be drugging and brainwashed by the acted on threats of coercive-control.
 
AWARENESS IS EVERYTHING. Make it happen!
Sign this petition, it costs you nothing to do that, to give us some respect.
If you want my art, yes, it will cost you, but you can wipe your hands on it!

Wrecking ball


 
I wrote a song called ‘Wrecking ball’ mid-2010. It was a thrash song about wanting the Junction Clinic St. Kilda, to be demolished. I dreamed that some renegades brought a wrecking ball to it in the night. And they needed me to cloak them with a song, so they wouldn’t be detected.

Lots of bar chords, gravelly voice and the feeling that every time I sang it I was getting closer to stopping the atrocities that were still happening to others and threatening to happen to me again.

I guess I’m like anyone who has been abused in a place, the building then becomes an icon of horror and hatred. We want it gone.

I was then forced to spend over a year going back to the Junction Clinic, for depot injections later that year and until the end of 2011. Forced to expose my butt and act like I thought it was all good for me. Then thank who ever put that sickening horrible stuff inside me, after they did it, in hope they’d eventually take me off the CTO and the violations would cease.

My menstrual cycle stopped. I slept 20 hours a day and still felt tired. My face drooped, my body twitched. I couldn’t retain information or read for very long. I couldn’t stand up for long without getting dizzy and falling over. Every day on those drugs was death.

I had to be so careful. I stopped playing songs of rebellion. I didn’t have the energy anyway. I exposed my butt for them to stick their pricks in. And said, ‘I have an epiphany. I realise now I was wrong. You are right Dr. I need to take neuroleptics the rest of my life, I just feel because I’m of a small build I don’t need as much as you’re giving me and I would be able to get up in the morning, rather than the afternoon, so I can get a job, if you lowered my dose a little…’

This affirming of the psychiatrist’s status and demands and nagging paid off eventually. I was let off the CTO in Sept 2011, but kept seeing the psychiatrist, knowing he could put me back on it in a snap, until he felt ready to discharge me to a GP in 2012.

The Junction Clinic moved recently and the place has been converted into apartments. My partner pointed them out as a bargain. And I said, ‘I would live anywhere with you, even live in a tent with you, but if you chose to live there, I’m sorry, but I could not be with you.’

 

In my imagination mid-2010, after the wrecking ball destroyed the Junction Clinic one night as I sang the song to back up the rebellion, people created a memorial on the site, to all those who had died at the hands of Melbourne psychiatrists and illegal government legislation that allows the torture of so many people. I thought that was all that could be made of that building.

 

Anyway, here’s the song I wrote mid-2010. It isn’t sexy, it’s a hard protest song. The word kiss in it, is more like the slang term ‘Scottish kiss’ and the love is just the love of seeing a monster destroyed and a people saved from its eyesore. I think the trouble with any kind of dream of destruction, it lends itself to looking violent. I didn’t want to look at all, in any way scary or threatening to anyone after being put on a CTO. I was sorry for existing, for asserting the need for things to change. I was being condemned for every tiny thing I did. I knew singing a song like that was evidence of me being wrong Being condemned for protesting against psychiatry and society’s cruel acceptance of the regime, meant I had no way to defend myself, for fear of being condemned and punished more than I had been with higher doses and other torture procedures such as electro-shock, which they called and still call ‘therapeutic’.

I realise now that, there were many other things I misdirected during 2010 including talking absurd parallels, making accusations that were incorrect, and while they were poetic truths, they were not direct truths. ‘Wrecking Ball’ actually had a focus, that was reasonable. I had been repeatedly violated in that building, of course it made sense that I felt the need to wreck it, as it had wrecked me. And I only did it through song. So what was the huge problem? Well, the Junction Clinic was, not me. But I got blamed for the upset it caused me.

I may have a recording somewhere, but I may not have recorded it being performed. Still remember the tune of the chorus though:

 

Wrecking ball


© Initially NO

Blast and damn blast and damn

Where are you now

I had you in my clutches

Now I’ve lost you in the mist

You’re being kissed

By a wrecking ball

By the wreck of all those things

You love to destroy.

And taken into sound

Of what people seek

When they’re in love

With the smashing energy

Of a building crashing down.

It was never meant to be

Never meant to exist

It’s smashing down

It’s smashing down

That building’s smashing down.

 

Don’t bleed me again

There’s no love in it

Only love in destroying it

That building’s smashing down

That building’s smashing down

Blast and damn blast and damn

Where are you now

I had you in my clutches

Now I’ve lost you in the mist

You’re being kissed

By a wrecking ball

By the wreck of all those things

You love to destroy.

Blast and damn blast and damn

Where are you now

All gone away

All gone away

All gone away.
 

When there are so many things going on that are wrong, it is hard to recognise that doctors can be wrong too. We want to trust someone. I broke my left pinkie while playing football at 18 and told the GP it was broken ,and he said, 'It's just a sprain'. It wasn't but for a month I believed him and it healed crookedly, according to the hospital staff that x-rayed it. So, after that, I took what arrogant doctors said, with a grain of scepticism.
           The heroic Sinead O'Conner has come to a similar conclusion about psychiatric diagnosis and drugs. I felt she would eventually, she didn't seem to altogether 'Wax' with them in other years. But then, she had so many other issues in Ireland and personal life to think about, that recognising malpracticing doctors would've been too hard to deal with. It's hard when those who are meant to help, are doing outrageous harm to you.

Protecting normal people like you, from people like me...



Activist poetry doesn't always have a place in the Melbourne poetry scene, particularly if you're talking psychiatric abuse. The audience tend to not listen and hear anger only. So, I rarely perform this style poetry in venues.

The ODDie poetry night was an exception, it was all about activism.
           These two poems I’m performing are about that shushed voice and the inability of society to listen, when activists speak, to anything but their memory of cruel propaganda campaigns.
 
The first poem, 'I've been trigger' talks about the idea of psychiatric abuse being justified because of the belief that 'but, they're violent, aren't they?' which is said about any marginalised group that governments wish to crush, or use in a way that infringes on standard human rights. Also the unjustifiable fear of symbolism and creativity, that is attempting to put OUTRAGE into peaceful means of protest, that ends up being called 'wrong' and 'ill' by psychiatrists.

The second poem, 'Unshushable' is a shortened version of this poem. It speaks for itself, or it should. 'We're already LOUD because we have every right to be allowed!'

ODD is a support group for activists, that ran the ODDie night. The ODD group are reclaiming of the term that diagnoses youth for their ability to recognise the need to defy abusive authorities.

Oppositional, disobedient, disordered, but with good reason!

Our outrage has been ignored and hushed for too long. Psychiatric survivors should be allowed to have a voice and psychiatric abuse should not be allowed!

Appreciate though, how difficult talking about this abuse is, because of where society is at, and because of what we’ve been through.

Stand up to the Mental Health Commission!


Yes, Mental Health Commission, I understand how psychiatric abuse produces ‘Stockholm syndrome’ in their victims (yes, a psychiatric term, which basically means brainwashed/ in an altered state of consciousness from being threatened and denying themselves their own opinion for personal safety, and trying to see the good in their abusers). So wonderful of you, MHC, to provide evidence of this, but where’s your psychiatric abuse awareness ribbon? Without something like that, your site could be mistaken for psychiatric propaganda. And people might be misled into not realising those hypnotised by the cult of psychiatry actually are terrorised into okaying this torturous horrific  organised crime the Australian Government has allowed for way too long, that hides its experiments under the guise of ‘medicine’. (As I understand it, now Rudd is in power, psychiatric survivors could be given an apology, if the Commission vouches for us. Rudd is good at apologies. Gillard had a father who was a psychiatric nurse, she was blinded by her love of him, and couldn't see how he was part of a practice that tortured people, who are not condemned to psychiatric torture anymore, that being homosexuals. Homosexuality was considered a 'mental illness' until 1973 and if people didn't keep quiet, they could be subjected to the various torture procedures that psychiatry offered at the time, without their consent. Gillard would've had to have had it out with her father if she wanted to stop psychiatric abuse, and, she couldn't do that because of her loyalty and the buckets of tears she'd have surging, if she recognised the horror her father was forced participate in, so that he could keep his job and feed her. Keeping this in mind, I suggest a reshuffle is also necessary for MHC, to give those with lived-experience more power to be progressive and validate human-rights.)

(You can easily make your own ribbon with similar colour scheme, but if you can't be bothered feel free to right click copy this one. You have my permission on this image of the psychiatric abuse awareness ribbon, NOT for other images in my blog though.)

The Commission wants to know how they're going. They want you to check in on them, say g’day and diagnose them. They might be treatment resistant though… because they're negotiating difficulties with red-tape etc.

One look, and you should realise the Commission’s website is offensive to uppity psychiatric survivors who have the impertinence to say that the way the Australian government treats people in crisis is human-rights abuse, and that this is a crime against humanity. These psychiatric survivors complain, saying terms like ‘mentally ill’ should not be used because it’s derogatory, threatening and triggers flash-backs to psychiatric abuse. Well! They’ve got to be put in their place! You tell them Commission! You tell them who they are!

Those psychiatric survivors think that they are entitled to freedom from torture and freedom of opinion. Yet, they don’t understand that no good mentally ill people must be kept docile and manageable. No one wants to hear about their ungrateful attitudes. Who cares if 25 years is taken off their life by forcing drugs on them? Who cares if electro-shock and these chemicals forced on them cause obvious brain-damage? The sooner they’re dead the better! Less burden on society then. Who cares if they can hardly move much or stay awake for long, because of the way these drugs affect the muscles? No one wants mentally ill people running around doing things and gaining power! The mentally ill are wrong. They’re mentally wrong. No one wants to hear what they say, unless they’re able to follow the script of their team of psychiatrists and preach all the good the government is doing for them to keep them manageable so they don’t upset the rest of the public.

Is that what you think?

Keep them shamed, keep them blamed, keep them very, very afraid. Give them no hope that their uppity protests will be heard and soon they’ll all be wiped out. Good riddance to them all!

Oh? It’s not genetic? Oh? It’s about other things the government has done like genocide, sexism, racism, war, discrimination and covering-up sexual abuse of children? Oh, we all could potentially develop ‘symptoms of psychosis’ if we were subjected to abuse and Gaslighting, lost our support network and felt alienated by a society that denied abuses that happened to us?  Really? Oh, well how are you going to cover up that one Commission? How are you going to cover up for the lists of horrific effects on the packets of these drugs that psychiatry forces on people? Hmm?

And… how are you going to shut me up now I’m networking with people all around the world and gaining support, getting my books published overseas, my protest T-shirts and other paraphernalia bought? The ‘Psychiatry must die! clock is ticking away and happens to be very popular.

You can’t stop sense, by calling human-rights nonsense. Progress is everything. Your website is so backward it is horrific. Change it now. Using the term ‘mentally ill’ is as offensive as the term ‘ape’.

I was asked to comment on what you’re doing, to make contact. I have. But the MHC's website is really offensive to me, you have to understand that. You have to also understand that psychiatrist’s parrots are not really someone I look up to. As for the 2nd and 3rd hand views of what it’s like to be a person put through psychiatry, well, they don’t know, they only know what they’ve been told by the ‘experts’, which are the falsely empowered psychiatrists, that know nothing about what it is to have artistic thinking. They condemn poetic memory to illness. That’s my people, the poets. I like symbolic thinking. I like non-invasive forms of therapeutic intervention, I like people communicating, I like diversity. I’m not interesting in repeating the psychiatric cult any more than I am interested in repeating what any other cults or religions say, that requires ‘faith’ , ‘blind obedience’ and ‘penance/medication’ such as the cult of psychiatry does.

Saying weird things, is neither being a harm to self or others, yet this has got me forcefully drugged many times over a 14 year period. Even the laws think they can be poetic. Poetic injustice I call psychiatric use of the Mental Health Act. Since when are painful, torturous, disabling, brain-damaging sickening neuroleptic drugs the ‘least restrictive measure’ to use on someone who is non-violent? So what if I was non-compliant? Of course I was. Anyone with any sense would be non-compliant with neuroleptic drugs, especially after they have felt the effects of them.

Why is it police can negotiate with terrorists in a crisis, but psychiatrists barge into a non-violent crisis, such as me in an altered state of consciousness, saying weird things, and  these government paid psychiatrists then use harmful traumatic damaging measures and don’t even try conversation. It’s as if they think I’m some sort of fruit-fly they can’t communicate with. They forget I’m human and symbology and poetic thinking is just as relevant, real and in touch with the emotional realm of feelings more than any other way of communicating. Surely it makes sense to communicate with a person, on their terms, during an emotional upheaval, such as grief. I wish websites like The Mental Health Commission would understand that point of view and realise it is more valid than the other invalidating point of view that psychiatry holds, which turns people into permanent drugged-up invalids.

 

If you want to know more about me, what I’ve been through, then by all means go for it. I’m a trained writer and editor. My books are available here: http://chipmunkapublishing.co.uk/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2264


                Australian publishers are ‘not ready’ for my views, they prefer to publish books by doctors, or those who have Stockholm syndrome, because the government isn’t ready to recognise their part in the 14 years of psychiatric abuse I’ve recently been put through, any more than the rest of the public who swallow psychiatric propaganda. People find it difficult to realise their part in the regime of terror on my body, as well as that of many, many others. It is terrifying when I hear these really beaten up broken down people repeat all the brainwashing lines I was subjected to, like a really sad, sad abused cult member, which they are not only like, they are, but they don't have to continue to be. They are so afraid, threatened, shamed and blamed for the corner society pushed them into and their reaction to being cornered. It’s horrible, but I do understand why people say what they do, when they feel the need to show compliance. It’s just very sad, when the public doesn’t understand why these people look so broken. And that that is an effect of psychiatry plus other abuses they've suffered and had diagnosed as their 'illness' their 'problem' their 'disease'. When trauma is not a disease and psychiatry has no scientific validity in saying that it is.

FUME!

‘They complain that they are being abused

By the medicines that keep those savage people

Docile and manageable.

Those uppity mentally ill!’

Said the pill to the packet that was stacking odds

For the stock and crack it.

 

FUME!

It is not okay, government of Australia, not okay. Change your ugly evil ways! Do a video or article that uncovers how psychiatric abuse produces ‘Stockholm syndrome’ in their victims, so that the public can understand what you’re saying, then say, perhaps we shouldn't call it that anymore since it is a psychiatric term.

Now, as your structural editor, MHC, I want to tell you that you lack clarity and sense. People will misinterpret you and think you’re a propaganda machine rather than a commission that inquires and attempts to improve social-justice, human-rights and health. You don’t want that do you? Now, be a good organisation and stick a psychiatric abuse awareness ribbon on your site somewhere. Or, at least, something to say sorry for what the government is still doing, in their name, to various people in Australia, or you are retraumatising people like me by the horror of what you seem to be saying okay to and not only allowing psychiatric abuse to continue, but encouraging it. I want your site to make it clear you want forced-drugging and electro-shock stopped immediately. In 2013 we must end this horrific regime. Australia is meant to be a democracy. Make it happen.

Schizophrenia awareness week



 
I'm a person who has been physically active all my life. I'm a person who is natural on the thin side. I'm a person who likes eating healthy foods. But I am also a person who got diagnosed schizophrenic and was subjected to forced 'medication' regimes over a 14 year period. At first I tried what the psychiatrists said would help me. When I found psychiatric drugs didn't help, rather harmed me to such an extent that I couldn't do physical exercise easily, lost 20 degrees of flexibility, lost my ability to balance, had dizzy spells, was constantly fatigued and even put on weight, I decided that the neuroleptics that the psychiatrists insisted I take were no good for me. I then went off them, recovered my ability to exercise, got back to my normal weight and also recovered my ability to think and read. I didn't receive help for trauma, so then I ended back in psychiatrists hands several more times, after being reported for saying strange things, forced to take their horrific debilitating chemicals again and again.


       Now when the MIFA, wants to blame those diagnosed schizophrenic for being lazy and not exercising, that makes me angry. MIFA's denial of what actually happened to me, a physically fit person, that was harmed by the drugs repeated effect every time I was forced to take them, is horrible. It's like having holocaust deniers in your face all the time, it's like misogynists who want to say things about women not being good at sport, about certain races of people being lazy, or stupid...


       Neuroleptics shorten people’s lives by around 25 years and psychiatrists have the power under my government to keep people, diagnosed with schizophrenia on these drugs forever.


       I was not a hard case. I was open to talking the first time I met a psychiatrist. I closed my mouth and went mute for a year after finding that talking only got me harmed. I could easily have recovered quickly if my government was funding such programs as Voice Dialoguing or Open Dialogue, or even good old person centred one on one art therapy. But my government doesn’t do that, my government forcefully drugs people with harmful chemicals that shorten lives by 25 years, making any years alive on those drugs emotionally and physically painful. They claim this is the ‘least restrictive measure’. They claim to ‘do no harm’. Absolute lies! Then they lie that the effects of the drugs are 'symptoms of schizophrenia'! Those kind of lies can really make a person already questioning reality due to other abuse, to wonder further more what is real and what is not.


       Be aware of propaganda from places like MIFA. I like the idea of physical exercise programs, but get it right, people’s lives are not shorten by voices and other unusual sensory experiences any more than altered states of consciousness. When a person is in a crisis they need to be helped, not battered by drugs and accusations of being a ‘sick mind.’ They need understanding and validation, housing, training, employment, friendly people, rather than damning and disabling psychiatrists and their cronies that tell really upsetting lies.

Awareness is everything button

Also, part 4 of a series on YouTube about how a person can get diagnosed with 'schizophrenia' when their identity and  sexuality is oppressed by their society. How forcing medications that don't help, rather harm, is not okay.
              It is not uncommon to hear voices of what society picks on you about, what society says you can't be, or do, what society says didn't happen. The struggle to be ourselves, when we also need to be what society expects of us, for our own safety and reasons of acceptance, can build into a crisis, where our dreams and nightmares make themselves heard while we are awake. It is the individual's attempt to be heard, as well as society's collective unrest emerging in that person. When society fears conflict, society tries to shut down people who tune into their psyche and speak about it. You have to have a lot of support to be able to gather your thoughts and help society understand that what is not accepted, what it is denied, could actually help society be more than it is.
 
 
Give people awareness. Send them a greeting card. Let them know how 'ripped off' you feel.
