Psychotropic drugs. It’s the story of big money-drugs that fuel a $330 billion psychiatric industry, without a single cure.
The cost in human terms is even greater-these drugs now kill an estimated 42,000 people every year.
And the death count keeps rising. Containing more than 175 interviews with lawyers, mental health experts, the families of victims and the survivors themselves, this riveting documentary rips the mask off psychotropic drugging and exposes a brutal but well-entrenched money-making machine.
Before these drugs were introduced in the market, people who had these conditions would not have been given any drugs at all.
So it is the branding of a disease and it is the branding of a drug for a treatment of a disease that did not exist before the industry made the disease.

I am not new to blogging and really value your blog. There is much prime subject that peaks my interest. I am going to bookmark your blog and keep checking you out. Wish you good luck.
The credits of this ‘film’ say it was made by CCHR. On CCHR’s website it says “CCHR was co-founded in 1969 by the Church of Scientology . . . ”
Saddened that you would promote the propaganda of this cult.
I trust http://www.setyoufreenews.com is not also a front for Scientology?
We are not associated with any organization. We are a front for the truth.
You hear the word scientology and you stop looking at the facts. Big mistake.
You couldn’t be more wrong. Before blindly accepting the claims made in this video, I took the time to research the facts and then discovered that it was produced by CCHR/$cientology. I didn’t hear the word Scientology from this site, because you failed to mention it.
Do you not even know the sources of information you publish? (Big mistake). Perhaps the sugar industry could make you a video about the health benefits of eating an exclusive diet of candy/sweets.
If you do in fact bother to check the facts regarding your sources, then why not mention them here?
Did you check and can you verify any of the information above or in this film using other sources?
“these drugs now kill an estimated 42,000 people every year” According to who? Xenu?

Here’s a video about CCHR:

If you’re a “front for the truth”; you should also be very interested in the CCHR’s explaination of 9/11. (also on youtube).
“This article now kills an estimated 100% of your site’s credibility.” Again, saddened.
Hello renata. With all due respect, maybe you will allow me to tackle these issues with mental health and substance use. I think anti prop meant well, but his frustration was a result of confusion. The stage that we are in now is filled more with clowns to amuse and distract, while the next act allows the magicians to enter the stage and fool us. Although, now we are entering the final stage, where we become the main show. We are responsible for the story, as they only set us up while never violating our free will. Now we will beome the authors of his story, and the characters who will carrry out the final scene.
We cannot resort to revolution. Right now we have reality tv, the internet, and we are all becoming fictious stars, as we play the roles we watched for so long and were taught to play. Gametime over, time to wake up, but do so within, its what I’ve told you from the start. We cannot alter minds, as anti propagandist is a perfect example, and we see how the will of others will not be violated or altered. Will begins with beleif, and his beleif is set. He beleives he has no one to trust, and he’s right. Since no one has the answer we are looking for, because as long as you are looking for it, you remain the same, looking for the answer, when the diception is made by not telling you there is no answer, because simply put, there is more then one. And to each his own. The best bet, is to stop questioning the answer, but instead to know as you know til corrected. Anti prop needs some major correction. He is someonee who has been deceived and is early in his awkening, as he is now looking for the target. He coulda saved himself some time by looking in the mirror at the deceived. The back n forth discussion, that in my eyes was never concluded because he was only looking ffor a fight, and left when he got his fill. He is a breeder of negativity, and a closed mind that refuses all propaganda, even if it might help him, but he will find his way, hopefully with the release of his anger.
We can only give him the courage to accept this brave new world, and learn to re evolve without it.
Keep up the good work, as you keep the fight alive, but I’m afraid, that their idea. Its funny how we want to be brought together, but fight over the idea of how it should come about. Its time to play our true role, and live the way we were meant to, ignorant oof our audience, and. A greater focus on our true self that is in need of a cure.
That cure is good love, and withdrawl from the negativity that will only divide itself after its loss. When we show we don’t care what thy do to us, because we have no fear, for this life is a mere illusion, and a true horror show, this is not anything more then a test, and how we answer to these people you fear will tell it all.
Death is taught to be feared, but don’t be fooled, the next level is amazing. I’ve been there. Remember?
“Your comment is awaiting moderation.” I don’t think my first comment had to “await moderation”, why this one?
It appears if I post a comment about this article, it is not moderated; but if a post a comment in response to what I believe are false claims that Renata makes about me, then it is? Here’s is a copy of the response that is currently “awaiting moderation” (since July 28, 2011 at 11:02 PM). Why do you choose to moderate it?:
(Renata,)

Let me tell you how wrong you are. I do not chose to moderate comments, you should stop making assumptions.
The comments containing links are automatically sent for moderation by spam filter.
And what concerns this topic, everyone is entitled to their opinion. We do not preach anything on this website, you are free to make up your own mind.
You can also write an article or commentary expressing your opinion on this topic, show other side of the story. We will be more than happy to publish it.
Thanks for the clarification. I thought that might be the case, but since my first comment contained a link and didn’t appear to be moderated, I was confused. (I guess because it was a link to this site) So that was the way it appeared to me, at the time. Now I know you choose to use a spam filter to send comments with links to moderation. Again, thanks.
“We do not preach anything on this website, you are free to make up your own mind.” Thanks, I will.
Thanks for allowing me to comment, and express my opinions about this article, published on this site.
It appears to me, that no effort has been made to verify the claims made in this article or the source of these opinions; which you describe as ‘facts’ (that I stopped looking at when I heard you word scientology).
Hopefully the readers of this article will not blindly accept these claims as ‘facts’ the way that the publisher of this article appears to have done.
sorry, typo: I meant “THE word Scientology” (Renata: “You hear the word scientology and you stop looking at the facts. Big mistake.”)
Again, what facts?
Let me ask you very simple question. How behaviour or misbehaviour can be a disease?
My comment made July 28, 2011 at 11:26 PM is now also ‘awaiting moderation’, along with my comment made July 28, 2011 at 11:02 PM. Perhaps this one will be too. I guess I’ll wait to see if/when the mod.s decide if I may respond.

Let me ask you very simple question. How behaviour or misbehaviour can be a disease?
(No reply button below this comment, so responding here.)
Feel free. I never said it was, but I’ll bite. How can it be? (Since its so “very simple”)
You’re response to my questions with an apparently unrelated question, is a technique that makes me wonder if you’ve worked in politics?
I’ve really enjoyed visiting this site, but my concern after reading this article is that perhaps SYFN might be too good to be ‘true’. (Although, fiction can also be very entertaining to read.) Saddened that this site apparently makes no effort to verify the things it publishes, check the sources of this information or stand behind the claims that it makes? While you say you are a “front for the truth”, perhaps you’re just a front? (Hopefully not for Scientology.)
Thank you for allowing me to express my opinions regarding this article published on your site. I hope that in the future SYFN will check the sources of the content it publishes and make some effort to verify information before describing it with words like “truth” and “fact”.
You keep putting labels on everything. Me working in politics, this documentary being a scientology propaganda, without even looking at the background of experts talking in this documentary. And this article is just a description of the documentary itself.
“I hope that in the future SYFN will check the sources of the content it publishes and make some effort to verify information before describing it with words like “truth” and “fact”.”
You see, this is where you come in. you are making up your mind, or do you want us to do it for you? We encourage free thinking and coming to your own conclusions after reading articles.
You, on the other hand, are a preacher and your words are full of judgement.
Without looking at the background of ‘experts’? How can you say I haven’t? (How judgemental!) Also really laughable, since you apparently didn’t even know the background of the people who MADE THIS FILM. Let alone the people in it. And you published it!
I wonder if anyone ever sent them this letter?:
“Dear [insert name here]:
Recently, you were interviewed by a group purportedly producing an objective documentary on psychiatry. What you may not have realized is that the group, CCHR (or Citizen’s Commission for Human Rights), is in fact a front group for the Church of Scientology.
The Church of Scientology has a vested interest in lessening the credibility of the psychiatric field, because it competes with their own business interests. They present a self-help system which does nothing but psychologically break its followers.
While your criticism of the psychiatric field is well noted, the format in which it was presented demonizes the field as a whole . . ”
http://forums.whyweprotest.net/threads/making-a-killing-interviewee-listing-megathread.27445/
Way to avoid your own question. What happened to “very simple”?
What happened to you being a “front for truth”? Are you now saying you just publish anything you find on the net? If “this article is just a description of the documentary itself. ” Then maybe the phrase “According to this documentary . . ” might make it clear if SYNF doesn’t stand behind the statements made in it. If you’re ‘just’ blindly re-distributing info in the future.
I am not in fact a preacher (as you have stated) and I think it’s very judgemental of you so say that I am. But its me that put labels on things right?
I am obviously capable of drawing my own conclusions about this video. (Thanks for the offer though) It’s the credibility of SYFN that concerns me.
You have a right into your own opinion, just like we have a right into ours.
I know very well who made the film. Where did I say I didn’t?
But I am looking at facts exposed, which can be verified, instead of focusing on who made the documentary. Scientology might have their own agenda, but I couldn’t care less.
It is a fact that millions of people are being given mental health medication as if it’s a candy. New ‘mental diseases’ are being made up every year. Soon there will be no behaviour without a disease attached to it.
It is a fact that mental disease can’t be proven. If you act what is considered not ‘normal’ you must be insane. This is what our world has become.
It is a fact that mental health drugs cause suicidal thoughts. there is no proof that they even help. PLACEBO EFFECT?!
It is a fact that pharmaceutical companies are making huge profits in this booming mental health industry.
I could go on and on.
But this is the information that actually matters. Not who made the documentary.
If you knew the who made the film, why not mention it in the article? Shame that you “couldn’t care less” about your sources.
“I am looking at facts exposed, which can be verified”. “It is a fact that mental health drugs cause suicidal thoughts. there is no proof that they even help.” Good luck verifying that! Prove that all mental health drugs cause suicidal thoughts. (Since you say that’s a “fact”) That would be great!
I thought that this article that you have published here was written by SYFN. However, it appears that it’s just been copied word for word, from another author. Since SYFN didn’t put these statements in quotes or attribute them to their real author, I thought that SYFN had written its own content. (perhaps that was my Big Mistake?)
“We are a front for the truth.” was a bold statement, that it looks like you’ve since abandoned.
This is not an article, but official description of documentary.
How much clearer can I say this?
I thought by your use of the word ‘article’ several times in this thread, that it was one. (It looks like one) Now you say its not.
It would have been more clear if this statement was made at the top of this page and not at the bottom of these comments.
Still, I honestly do appreciate the time and effort you have made to respond to these comments and hope our discussion will result in improving this site in the future. I do value the work that you are doing and resources/information you make available. So thanks for that and again, for allowing me to comment and for responding to my comments. You have been generous with your time, and I don’t want to use up any more of it. Have a great weekend and best of luck with the site!
Thank you, have a wonderful weekend too.
anti-propagandist you have not contributed with any contradictory information to this film. Do you have any? If not you are not contributing you are a carrier of disinformation. My judgment of you are grim. Without contributing anything you are insignificant.
Maybe I can be of help to solve this disagreement and maybe move us all towards discussion. There is a dis~ease in this world and its very clear, and not to be argued, but more or less needs to be discussed instead. The conclusion is very simple to be reached.
People are not being correctly diagnosed, and those looking for profit to assist those suffering from this dis ease known as the human condition, will continue as long as supply has demand.
These individuals who havve committed suicide, have simply done so, and the reasons we cannot explain, since the individuals no longer are here to tell their story. Two things are possible to explain the suicidal ideations of those taking prescribed medications, and those unprescrbied, nevertheless, a drug is a drug is a drug. Placing any foreign substance in your body has worked to begin the process of a passive attempt towards suicide, or what I like to call ultimate submission.
These individuals who chose to take their lives, might have blamed the drugs for their removal of this existence simply because they did not work, and then true hopelesness set in. Or, the only other reason to blame these drugs for instant death, is that the drug simply gave the individul the energy to carry out their plan which their depression without the drug did not allow them to do.
So for true conspiracy theorists, this is something to ponder. Do we want these individuals to carry out their plans,, as society may deem them worthless, as they have disorders that could then create disorder for society as a whole? Is this why many psychotropic drugs causemen to become impotent or unable to reach orgasm? Sounds like genocide to me, as there seed will not create another individal with these shared genetics.
This information here in this documentary must carefully be examined. The fact is this, people are willingly taking these drugs, while other remain court ordered to do so. The ones who relly need the medicines will deny their disorders, unless they have re acheived chemical balance and see these drugs for their practical mental health benefits, or for some as mental steroids that could very well enhance personality, social skills, or chemical balance within the individual that can only be determined by the patients reports.
We take these reports from those suffering dis ease, and we give them todays cure, which is temporariy relief, as cures cannot be made for the infection known as the human experience. We suppresss the symptoms so that we cannot desire to find the need for surgergy, while these drugs are just mere band aids, that if worn or used to long, become so dangerous, and even deadly when removed once the indivudal becomes dependent, but not dared to be called addicted, but that’s another story.
These drugs, are a quick fix, for an impatient society, that has no patience, or time to become patients. There ego will not allow it, as there is nothing wrong with them that caant b fixed by the latest drug that is only set to knumb the pain. The pain cause by the illness of society as a whole. We are devolving, and it hurts. These drugs, our beahviors, ideas, moral, and attitudes are killing us, not to mention are loss of reason.
These drugs benefit some and bring them back to the world, that created them, their illness and thedrugs that define their sickness. Welcome to our brave new world, with the courage to take anything.
P.s. don’t forget the pun, taking drugs like candy. Sugar is the gateway drug, and the candies we have eaten sinc kids look awful similar to. The brain candy we accept as adults. Good n plenty is your prozac and brown m & ms will later become your advil.
i think the scientologists have usefull information just like many groups do, in my opinion the bible does. There is a calous side that takes over when money comes first and in todays society that keeps happening. We all want to give people our best but selfish needs take over. Were all human.
Take vitamins. Work hard. Excercise hard. Pray hard.
