Prof Peter Gøtzsche: Why Few Patients Benefit and Many are Harmed

[atropabelladonna]

I'm so happy Peter Gotzsche has a firm stance against psychiatric torture.

Right. Diagnosing natural grief as a mental health condition should be a crime.

Antipsychotics need to be destroyed and completely banned.

I survived a hurricane back in 1995. Traumatic for sure but nothing some counseling couldn't have helped. Put onto these poisons and spent the next two decades gradually losing myself and my life. I am now 4 months post-taper. I am gradually emerging. This is a global holocaust that must not only end but the perpetrators brought to justice.

What a hero this man is. I am surprised he has not died or disappeared mysteriously yet. I will buy all of his books before they are taken off the market

[ReverbRevival]

"Turn a lot of temporary problems into chronic ones." Nicely phrased

[capresti]

Psychiatrists are criminals they should be in prison. The harm they have done to millions of people with fraud in the name of helping them is crimes against humanity.

A man after my own heart. He speaks my language.

A rude and awful neurologist in MN put my mother with early onset dementia/Alzheimer’s on these antipsychotics and dementia drugs and she died within 4 years at 65. Thank you for this information.

That disturbed woman who was screaming was treated with the utmost respect, a stunning example of human decency. In contrast, in any psych hospital, the animalistic staff would have immediately escalated the matter, which would then be disingenuously used as an excuse to drug the person against their will, traumatizing them deeply. They would then be gaslit into believing that it was the only thing that could have been done. Outstanding behavior by everyone in the room. True role models.

I experienced tremendous stress in a toxic workplace. The doctor tried to put me on powerful psychiatric meds and told me to consider disability so I could heal. I thought to myself she is nuts! Walked out and never went back. She only saw $$$$. Could not have cared less about healing.Haven’t seen a doctor in years.

I also was treated in Monash medical hospital, Clayton, Melbourne in the early 1990s !!! Im still deeply scared by the inhumane treatment i received . I was given a cocktail of drugs and shock treatments against my will or concent. Only for the fact my mother and family discovered I was being held by them against my will I dont think i would be here today!! I completely lost myself, the treatment rendered me a totally broken shell of a human being a dribbling psychotic wreck. Unfortunately my Mom has passed away as have the other amazing people fighting my corner against monash medical Centre.In recent times I have tried with the help of a physiatrist to get hold of my records from Monash hospital archives only to be told they have no record of me, which I find so deeply offensive and deeply traumatic considering the harm they caused myself and my family. I consider the treatment and harm done to me a crime against humanity. Thank you for posting this amazing talk.

I was put on a cocktel of drugs for asking for help with my family's abuse.

When I asked for help with the numerous physical issues the drugs caused me, the doctors gaslighted me.

When I asked my psych for a brain scan after reading about the fact that APs are linked to cerebral atrophy, she refused.

When I got a scan despite her refusal and it showed cortico-subcortical brain atrophy, she ghosted me.

The neurologist and the other doctors gaslighted me about it, saying that "it wasn't that bad", that it was my fault for being ill and that I had to "eat healthy, exercise and study".

My gaslighty family took the doctor's side.

When I complained about the drugs and the gaslighting, the doctors put on my charts that I needed psychiatric intervention even after knowing about the psych drugs.

I have had doctors that have gaslighted me about the brain atrophy even after the scans showed up, saying that "the scans were wrong because I have a big skull" or that "that kind of test cannot show brain damage", and when shown that the test is actually one that can show brain damage, they'd move on with their next gaslighty tactic.

Invalidation -> minimization -> victim blaming.

I lost my 4 grandparents and my dog while I was unconscious from those drugs. I'm still recovering my consciousness after 8 years in the drug limbo.

I'm scared of becoming aware of this only for them to use my reaction as an excuse to harm me even more.

I lost my university degree and I became economically dependant on my family due to this.

My dog was diagnosed with cancer and I begged them to take me off those drugs so I could give him a proper goodbye and they coerced me into taking them for another whole year. He died that year. He died in my arms while I was completely gone. I had terrible thoughts with those drugs that I never had before and I lost my reality to the point that I didn't know what emotions were anymore.

I experience a level of inhumanity from my family and the doctors that I never even deemed possible.

God bless this Gentleman, hear, hear!

[johnbaker]

Thank you Dr Gotzsche Truth spoken with courage and eloquence.

[stateofsteeze]

That woman that interupted is what a victim of the psychiatric industry looks like. That woman probably experienced years maybe decades of mistreatment against her will if you listen to what she says 42:45. Thats the kind of trauma the psychiatric industry creates. The medical industry shouldnt invalidate people and mistreat them with drugs . It creates that kind of outburst and pain. Hope she finds her peace.

Thanks Peter one of the few voices of "Reason" we have in this World when it comes to pointing out the facts about Psychiatric drug treatment. I also thank Robert Whitaker for all the good work he has done in this field as well. Sad that their was a women interrupting this presentation. I do understand her frustration. sadly i feel it will take many years before we get real action especially with regards forced psychiatric treatment. Governments like my own like to use Psychiatry as a form of control over the populous so its not going to be easy it will take time. Don't worry the truth will come out in the end it always dose! And human rights will also win out in the end i hope their is to much at stake here!
