Television has done much for psychiatry by spreading information about it, as well as contributing to the need for it.

Unfortunately, the problem with this is that TV has furthered the myth that psychiatry is a legitimate science, rather than the truth - that they are snake-oil salesman in nice white coats.
Every mental “disease” has come about through a hand count at the annual APA meetings (American Psychiatric Association) and not through actual emperical, scientific testing and research. Even before Congress, the head of the APA admitted they can’t cure anything.
Their biggest sin today is the mass drugging of children. The minds of children are not fully developed until into their twenties, yet these quacks think up new ways to label the children and then perscribe mind-altering drugs. You’d think they of all people would understand the mixing of psychotropic drugs with still-forming minds would produce unpredictable results, but then, it’s all about money, isn’t it. Billions of dollars every year are made by these dispicable charlatans.
Fortunately, many lawsuits are under way and many of these psychs are being put away for good and the drug companies are being sued for millions from class-action suits against their dangerous drugs and the damage that they’ve already caused.
The “science” of psychiatry is beginning to unravel and soon it will be laid bare for all to see what it truly is - smoke and mirrors, and a quest for money and power.
