| Tom Cruise exposes pseudoscience of psychiatryBy Fred A Baughman Jr., MD June 27, 2005 (copied from a Yahoo! group post)
Today, 6/27/05, in an interview on the Today Show (in follow-up to the previous Cruise Matt Lauer interview in which Mr. Cruise called psychiatry "pseudoscience"), Dr. Joseph Glenmullen, a Harvard psychiatrist, confirmed that while ads and, routinely, psychiatrist/physician encounters portray psychiatric disorders/diagnoses as chemical imbalances, i.e., diseases--something abnormal within the brain of the child, none of them are--not a single one, not even schizophrenia or the psychoses, much less ADHD or any childhood disorder. Psychiatrist Steven Sharfstein of the American Psychiatric Association had no comeback for this, most damning of disclosures, but went on talking of them just as though they were (chemical imbalances) just as though they needed, required, justified chemical balancers--psychiatric drugs. Mr. Cruise rightly said that the drugs cover up, mask real-life situational challenges leading to behavioral and emotional reactions, and right he is. But, most importantly of all, every drug--psychiatric drugs included--is a foreign compound--a poison. They mask emotional and behavioral reactions by damaging the brain both short- and long-term with virtually all of them inflicting permanent brain damage in time...but of course they do not do long term studies so they don't know and the public doesn't know or find out for years when post-marketing surveillance makes it impossible to hide the injuries and deaths, as we saw recently with Adderall (Canada Health but not the FDA taking it off of the market), and, with thalidomide, Vioxx, Rezulin, Baycol, and others. The main point about the "chemical imbalance" lie is that virtually all parents, parent surrogates (judges) and thus patients in psychiatry/mental health are thus robbed of their right to informed consent, making them involutary conscripts, pawns, victims--usually for life as it turns out in US mental health today.
