A Royal Recovery from Schizophrenia

"Authorities" may try to tell you that schizophrenia is incurable and is a life-long disease. It isn't so!
Prince Philip's mother, Alice of Battenburg (at left) had a diagnosis of schizophrenia, but became well again and went on to do great things; read about her here. Living in a developed country decreases the chances of recovery from schizophrenia; read an excerpt from Whitaker's MAD IN AMERICA on those facts here.
This page contains links to explore for healing schizophrenia - some remedies are as simple as discontinuing foods to which the patient is allergic.

The Roots of Authoritarianism in Psychiatry and Psychology

This is the image that Freud, a cocaine addict, hung above the famous couch where he dispensed "advice".



"In recounting the story of the Rat Man (“A Case of Obsessional Neurosis”, 1909), Freud digresses into that of another patient, a civil servant, who had many eccentricities. One was an obsession with cleanliness: he paid Freud in banknotes which had been ironed in order to get rid of bacteria. Another was his treatment of young girls. Among his friends he would play the role of a jolly uncle. In this role he would invite his friends’ daughters out for a day in the country and would contrive to miss the train so that he and the girl would have to spend the night in a hotel. Although he always arranged a separate room for the girl, he would come to her bed during the night and masturbate her with his fingers. Freud suggested that this was not a good idea on grounds of hygiene: “But aren’t you afraid of doing her some harm, fiddling about in her genitals with your dirty hand?”. To this remarkably mild objection – would such conduct have been acceptable with clean hands? – the civil servant responded by flying into a rage and declaring that his attentions had never done the girls any harm. He stormed out of Freud’s consulting room and never came back. The pattern that emerges, I suggest, is of extreme and excessive indulgence towards patriarchal authority and its abuse, and a lack of sympathy with the women and children who were, and evidently still are, its victims."

Ritalin (an Amphetamine) and Cocaine are chemically almost identical. So Freud was a speed freak....something to think about next time you or your child are offered medication.

Killing Us Softly: Multiple Chemical Sensitivity

Physician Mark Donohoe of Australia has generously shared his book on MCS with the world. Download the book here












He writes,
"The story of multiple chemical sensitivities is a difficult one to set in a social context at present. The
understanding is emerging, and the data which seemed to be lacking in the past are now flood-
ing in. I will be satisfied if, after reading my contribution, a reader has his or her faith in regula-
tory bodies, manufacturers and medicine shaken.
Growing up is often a painful experience in which blind faith must be discarded, and in which
we seek the truth for ourselves. The truth, for me, is the people who see me and relate their all too
similar stories day after day. It is not theory, experts, authorities of newspaper stories. I urge and
invite you all to lose your faith, and grow your own knowledge and understanding. Believe noth-
ing I or others say without testing it against your experience. Then, do not doubt the truth you
find, no matter what the “experts” say. "

Monkeys given vaccines develop Autism behaviors

For some time it has been hard to prove whether vaccines caused the increase in the number of autistic children in industrialized countries.
Now researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have vaccinated monkeys to see how their neural development would change when inoculated according to the schedule of common vaccines.
These animals develop autistic
behavioral patterns.

Blind Faith

BLIND FAITH
What happens when drugs, science and money mix?
"Our investigation discovered complex, seemingly ubiquitous, financial relationships between giant pharmaceutical companies and the scientific community tasked with establishing the safety of our drugs.
And the financial entanglements are not just pervasive, they are oftentimes virtually invisible.
Blind Faith also reveals a frightening escalation in the number of unsafe drugs being pulled from Canadian store shelves, an astounding number of medications that are routinely prescribed for unapproved uses and a federal bureaucracy that seems ill-equipped to offer Canadians the safeguards they deserve.
Much of our investigation focuses on McMaster University and the researchers who work there. You'll learn that in recent years the amount of money the pharmaceutical industry pours into McMaster and its teaching hospitals has almost quadrupled.
For many at McMaster, that explosion in funding is a source of genuine pride, emblematic of the university's stature in the scientific community.
Fair enough.
But that explosion has also exacerbated the very real concerns many have about the uneasy relationship that sometimes exists between scientists and the people who pay for their research.
Initially, we focused our attention on Mac simply because it's in our back yard.
But what we discovered over the course of our investigation is that the university's outstanding success in attracting private funding has brought into particularly sharp focus many of the ethical issues such funding raises.
Universities across North America face increasing scrutiny in this area, and the scientific community is, itself, debating the implications of the increasingly cosy relationship it has with the pharmaceutical world. In Blind Faith, you'll come to understand why that is a conversation in which we should all participate."

The Hippocratic Oath

The Hippocratic Oath

Ὄμνυμι Ἀπόλλωνα ἰητρὸν, καὶ Ἀσκληπιὸν, καὶ Ὑγείαν, καὶ Πανάκειαν, καὶ θεοὺς πάντας τε καὶ πάσας, ἵστορας ποιεύμενος, ἐπιτελέα ποιήσειν κατὰ δύναμιν καὶ κρίσιν ἐμὴν ὅρκον τόνδε καὶ ξυγγραφὴν τήνδε.
Ἡγήσασθαι μὲν τὸν διδάξαντά με τὴν τέχνην ταύτην ἴσα γενέτῃσιν ἐμοῖσι, καὶ βίου κοινώσασθαι, καὶ χρεῶν χρηίζοντι μετάδοσιν ποιήσασθαι, καὶ γένος τὸ ἐξ ωὐτέου ἀδελφοῖς ἴσον ἐπικρινέειν ἄῤῥεσι, καὶ διδάξειν τὴν τέχνην ταύτην, ἢν χρηίζωσι μανθάνειν, ἄνευ μισθοῦ καὶ ξυγγραφῆς, παραγγελίης τε καὶ ἀκροήσιος καὶ τῆς λοιπῆς ἁπάσης μαθήσιος μετάδοσιν ποιήσασθαι υἱοῖσί τε ἐμοῖσι, καὶ τοῖσι τοῦ ἐμὲ διδάξαντος, καὶ μαθηταῖσι συγγεγραμμένοισί τε καὶ ὡρκισμένοις νόμῳ ἰητρικῷ, ἄλλῳ δὲ οὐδενί.
Διαιτήμασί τε χρήσομαι ἐπ' ὠφελείῃ καμνόντων κατὰ δύναμιν καὶ κρίσιν ἐμὴν, ἐπὶ δηλήσει δὲ καὶ ἀδικίῃ εἴρξειν.
Οὐ δώσω δὲ οὐδὲ φάρμακον οὐδενὶ αἰτηθεὶς θανάσιμον, οὐδὲ ὑφηγήσομαι ξυμβουλίην τοιήνδε. Ὁμοίως δὲ οὐδὲ γυναικὶ πεσσὸν φθόριον δώσω. Ἁγνῶς δὲ καὶ ὁσίως διατηρήσω βίον τὸν ἐμὸν καὶ τέχνην τὴν ἐμήν.
Οὐ τεμέω δὲ οὐδὲ μὴν λιθιῶντας, ἐκχωρήσω δὲ ἐργάτῃσιν ἀνδράσι πρήξιος τῆσδε.
Ἐς οἰκίας δὲ ὁκόσας ἂν ἐσίω, ἐσελεύσομαι ἐπ' ὠφελείῃ καμνόντων, ἐκτὸς ἐὼν πάσης ἀδικίης ἑκουσίης καὶ φθορίης, τῆς τε ἄλλης καὶ ἀφροδισίων ἔργων ἐπί τε γυναικείων σωμάτων καὶ ἀνδρῴων, ἐλευθέρων τε καὶ δούλων.
Ἃ δ' ἂν ἐν θεραπείῃ ἢ ἴδω, ἢ ἀκούσω, ἢ καὶ ἄνευ θεραπηίης κατὰ βίον ἀνθρώπων, ἃ μὴ χρή ποτε ἐκλαλέεσθαι ἔξω, σιγήσομαι, ἄῤῥητα ἡγεύμενος εἶναι τὰ τοιαῦτα.
Ὅρκον μὲν οὖν μοι τόνδε ἐπιτελέα ποιέοντι, καὶ μὴ ξυγχέοντι, εἴη ἐπαύρασθαι καὶ βίου καὶ τέχνης δοξαζομένῳ παρὰ πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις ἐς τὸν αἰεὶ χρόνον. παραβαίνοντι δὲ καὶ ἐπιορκοῦντι, τἀναντία τουτέων.”

“I swear by Apollo, Asclepius, Hygieia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgment, the following Oath.
To consider dear to me, as my parents, him who taught me this art; to live in common with him and, if necessary, to share my goods with him; To look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art.
I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.
To please no one will I prescribe a deadly drug nor give advice which may cause his death.
Nor will I give a woman a pessary to procure abortion.
But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts.
I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest; I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners, specialists in this art.
In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves.
All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal.
If I keep this oath faithfully, may I enjoy my life and practice my art, respected by all men and in all times; but if I swerve from it or violate it, may the reverse be my lot.”
