To "Christopher" Your claim that there is no such thing as mental illness is absurd! The picture you paint of psychiatrists and what they do is extremely narrow and biased. I think I know why. You claim that your personal form of treatment is all anyone who ever shows any signs of any mental illness is all anyone will ever need to get better is absolutely ludicrous! I'm afraid that you are heinously ignorant about issues you claim to be an expert on, and you do not realize how ridiculous you sound. Mental illness is often caused by a chemical imbalance of the synapses in the brain. If a patient takes a medication and improves greatly, how can you say that there was never really anything wrong, or that psychiatry and medications don't work? I have seen it for myself, in others, and in myself. And I have seen what happens when mentally ill people refuse to take their medication. It is not charming or brilliant. It is tragic. I guess you think that mentally ill people are better off drinking lots of alcohol and smoking crack or meth and living under overpasses than getting treatment and just perhaps living a more normal life with people who can stand to be around them because they're not talking crazy and being aggressive and violent. Psychiatry came about in order to help people with mental illness, to help the sick, rather than try to cast out demons. Read your history books. And by the way, drug dealers and alcohol producers make WAY more money than drug companies ever will. And nobody gets decapitated in that business. You, Smarty Pants, have more to learn that you can imagine.

First off there is no such thing as mental illness. Mental illness is a fallacy concocted by psychiatrists and the pharmaceutical industry to make alot of money without even trying. What manner of person would become a psychiatrist anyway? They never cure anybody but love to give out diagnoses with their baffle them with bullshit terminology and then prescribe 5 or 6 or 7 different types of "medications" that turn their "patients" into chemically lobotomized retards who flop around the ground like two thirds deflated balloons filled with helium. Not to mention the side effects. Psychiatrist's motto is we use everything of the pig except the squeal, and we smirk at the squeal. I've known more then a couple of people diagnosed as schizophrenics, and all I can say is that one of them had a better sense of reality and way more personality as a crack head then a drugged out zombie under the care of psychiatrists. If you look at how the undeveloped countries handle mental illness you might learn something. A person having problems is isolated, relieved of their daily responsibilities and given 24/7 attention and love. Most importantly, they are listened to and acknowledged. If the patient feels that they should be at a certain place at 6:17 pm to be abducted by aliens in a spaceship, they are taken to that spot, at that time, so they may see for themselves that perhaps their thinking is wrong. 6 to 9 months of this treatment, drug free, is usually all it takes for a person to become well enough to go back to society. Hardly any recidivism either. Of course to the rancid evil scum that dominate the mental health treatment in the United States, this won't do. How are they to get their 220 dollars an 'hour" fee, and how are the drug companies going to make billions of profit on just one psychoactive drug that probably has fudged research or outright bribery to the FDA to get on the market. I plead with Pazuzu to purify these scoundrels with fire from the inside. So Mark Russell, you're an ass. Everybody smokes pot, or drinks alcohol.
