MENTAL ILLNESS 'EXPERTS' RELY TOO MUCH ON DRUGS

I would like to comment on the expose that was written by Janet Simons for
the July 30 issue of the Rocky Mountain News called "Living in the light."

It sounds so reasonable, as if these "experts" are actually involved in
"science." Where is the scientific proof that suicide somehow has a genetic
component?

There isn't one or there would be a genetic test that would prove
conclusively that it existed. Why is it that normal human emotion and
sadness are now so often described by these "experts" as mental and
emotional illness? It is because these "experts" in the field of the mind
know absolutely nothing about it. If they did, they would cure somebody,
wouldn't they?

What they actually do is treat thought, behavior and emotion with very
addictive and very powerful psychotropic drugs and some of their victims
are younger than 5 years old. The effects of this "treatment" are
devastating to far more than a few who unfortunately fall into the hands of
these "experts."
