There’s No Need To Buy: (part 6)

Posted: March 10th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Psychotropic Drugs, There's No Need To Buy | 5 Comments »

psychotropic “mood-altering” drugs!

stress, anxiety, depression, nervousness. these manifestations are simply signs that something isn’t right! the source is for you to find. i think you’ll find it a lot easier if you are not stoned on Prozac. know what i mean?

it may be something or someone in your life: i once knew a girl who had such anxiety that she couldn’t hold down a meal. she lost about 20 pounds. her “boyfriend” at the time was openly cheating on her and frequently made remarks about her figure being too boyish. when she lost the jerk she lost the anxiety. make sense?

sometimes the source is physical: food allergies can cause restlessness and nervous tension. vitamin and mineral deficiencies can cause the same effect. the sad thing is that many people who suffer from anxiety due to a simple deficiency mistakenly turn to psychotropic drugs which in turn make the deficiency 10 times worse.

in this installment of “There’s No Need to Buy:” we will discuss simple solutions for mental stress.

1) look over your life and the people in it. is there anyone who makes you feel bad about yourself? ditch them.

2) start exercising on a daily basis. lack of exercise can cause insomnia, anxiety, fatigue and even depression!

3) write down a list of all the things you need to do. check them off one by one. this is extremely therapeutic.

4) change your diet. a poor diet can cause every symptom above. less processed foods, more whole foods.

5) clean and organize your house or apartment. top to bottom. see “There’s No Need To Buy: (part 1)”.

6) take vitamin b1. a deficiency in this b vitamin is known to cause depression. remember to take it with a good multi-vitamin so it can be completely absorbed.

7) make sure you’re getting enough calcium and magnesium. a deficiency in these minerals can cause restlessness and tension. go to the health food store and pick up some “calmag”.

8) get therapeutic massage. now were starting to relax!

9) get checked for food allergies. find a good naturopathic doctor.

10) get checked for anemia. this can be done with a blood test. anemia can make you feel lethargic and fatigued.

11) if you feel particularly fatigued and tired, get checked for mono…. seriously.

Hey Dummies! (part 4)

Posted: March 7th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Hey Dummies, Psychotropic Drugs | 7 Comments »

read carefully:

psychotropic drugs do not cure anything.

they do not correct anything.

they do not balance anything.

in fact, they are out-performed by placebos. that means taking nothing works better than taking a psychotropic drug.

they do however, kill brain cells, cause imbalances, create addictions and render the person less able to resolve the core issues he or she is facing.

some may argue that they are necessary in extreme cases, but in view of the fact that they cause suicidal and homicidal thoughts in people who had never experienced such things before and the fact that they drive formerly non-violent people to extreme violence, it is clear that any possible benefit or use as a “chemical straight jacket” is wildly variable at best and extremely dangerous at worst.

many, many people take drugs for many different reasons. from alcohol to heroin, drugs serve a definite purpose in the mind of the addict. there is no question here as to whether or not mental stress exists. clearly it does. the point is that there is a lie on the subject of prescription psychotropic drugs. and the lie is that they are different from alcohol or heroin.

the marketing line says they are medical drugs when they serve no medical purpose.

this is not an antibiotic. this is not a blood thinner. this is not a hormone. this is not insulin.

Psychiatric Drugs Cause Suicide

Posted: March 4th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Psychotropic Drugs | 8 Comments »

interesting viewpoint. psychotropic drugs now feature black box warnings for suicidal and homicidal thoughts and behavior. when will they be taken off the market?

Hey Dummies! (part 3)

Posted: March 1st, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Hey Dummies, Psychotropic Drugs | 10 Comments »


here are a few things for you to try BEFORE placing your 7 year old child on a toxic, addictive, dangerous amphetamine drug for his supposed “learning disorder”.

1) get him an eye exam. many kids who have been “diagnosed” with a “learning disorder” merely had poor vision and needed glasses.

2) stop feeding your child Lucky Charms before you send him off to school. as a matter of fact, cut out all white sugar… it is what sold so many false prescriptions for “ADHD”.

3) ban all artificial sweeteners, like aspartame. these are chemicals not foods. they can especially react upon a small child’s health and behavior.

4) get him checked for food allergies. these can affect concentration.

5) try a tutor you freak. do you honestly think that speed is going to make your kid a genius?

6) curb the t.v. and video game time. these have an obvious effect on I.Q.! instead have him play outside.

7) if the situation continues, why not try a new school? smaller classes, more individual attention.

this is a serious issue. if you guys have ideas on this, please leave them in the comments.

Hey Guess What?

Posted: January 27th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Psychotropic Drugs | No Comments »

the very people charged with the responsibility of protecting you are deceiving you to meet their own greedy ends. when you really look- you will see this all around. American commerce is a battle ground. filled with false promises and smart marketing campaigns. and our t.v. generation is popping their pills. although the marketing lies perpetrated by the food industry are rampant, obesity or a case of diabetes is nothing compared to the loss of one’s mind. the pharmaceutical industry is raking in billions of dollars a year through the sale of mind-altering drugs. the FDA tell us that these drugs are safe and tested. but if you follow the money trail you will get a brand new perspective:

Dr. Wayne K. Goodman is the chairman of our FDA’s “Psychopharmacologic
Drug Advisory Committee”

such committees consist of independent experts in the field and
exist to advise the FDA regarding safety, black box warnings, etc.

just one problem…

Dr. Wayne K. Goodman is also a paid consultant for drug companies:

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
Elan
Glaxo Smith and Kline
Janssen
Lilly
Novartis
Pfizer
and Solvay

a paid speaker for drug companies:

AstraZeneca
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
Glaxo Smith and Kline
Janssen
Lilly
Pfizer
and Solvay

and a paid researcher for drug companies:

Abbott Laboratories
Forest Laboratories
Glasko Smith and Kline
Janssen
Lilly
Pfizer
Sanofi Aventis
Solvay
and Wyeth

no big deal.

8 Fun Facts

Posted: January 24th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Psychotropic Drugs | No Comments »

after being personally harmed by the psychiatric and pharmaceutical industries i took it upon myself to learn the truth behind their marketing. turn your t.v. to any station, open any popular magazine and you will find an ad for a mood-altering psychiatric drug. this is called “direct-to-consumer marketing” and it leads to self-diagnosis. if only the American consumer were smart enough to flip the page and read through the fine printed novel of side-effects on the other side. but alas, the American public is too trusting. if it is in a magazine it must be safe. if it’s on t.v. it’s got to be okay. well i’m here to set the record straight:

the widely advertised idea that mental illness is caused by a “chemical imbalance” in the brain is nothing more than an unproven theory. there is no diagnostic test which shows such an imbalance exists. this is pure marketing.

psychiatric drugs do not, as they claim, correct any chemical imbalance. the popular psychiatric drug ritalin is nothing more than a form of speed, highly addictive and dangerous.

psychiatry’s bible, the diagnostic and statistical manual, had 112 mental disorders outlined in it’s 1st issue. it’s latest issue now describes 374.

Homosexuality was formerly listed as a mental illness in the DSM. It was deleted when the idea became politically incorrect.

since there is no test to diagnose such “diseases” they are purely subjective.

new mental disorders are added to the dsm by nothing more than a vote.

according the the american psychiatric association 19 of the 27 psychiatrists on the dsm’s top voting panel have financial ties to the pharmaceutical industry.

psychiatric drugs pull in 80 billion dollars a year for the pharmaceutical industry.

Mental stress and depression do exist. Seek solutions without side-effects. Visit: www.alternativementalhealth.com

Posted: January 8th, 2010 | Author: youareb1 | Filed under: Psychotropic Drugs | No Comments »

i was a normal teenager, minding my own business, on my way to becoming a perfectly
obedient
consumer… when something happened which would change my life forever.

my best friend disappeared off of the face of the earth for 2 whole weeks!

this was a boy i spoke to on the phone several times a day. he lived up north at college. and suddenly he was nowhere to be found. i must have left a hundred messages and sent a hundred texts. i tried him over and over every single day. it wasn’t until 2 weeks later that his phone finally rang and somebody answered.

i could hardly recognize the voice on the other end.

his speech was fast and confused. he stuttered. he couldn’t formulate a complete sentence. he went off the subject and blurted out nonsense. i kept repeating over and over again “where were you?! where have you been?!”. it took about 15 minutes to get my answer.

turns out my friend got into an argument with another boy on the campus basketball court, a girl watching from the crowd called the hospital psych ward, accused my friend of acting crazy and he got committed. just like that.

he was held for 2 weeks. he was placed on lithium. and now….. he really was crazy.

it only got worse after that. he stopped sleeping. he began calling me incessantly during the night, speaking only gibberish. i had to put my phone on silent and day after day i would wake to 50 or more missed calls. he starting becoming self destructive. he told me the drug made him want to die.

this is when i realized that something had to be done. i started researching lithium and it’s side effects. turns out mental depression and unusual excitement are side effects of the drug, as well as, confusion and lack of awareness. what???

i started reading the side effects of similar psychiatric drugs. I found
“suicidal thoughts or attempts” as a side effect to ritalin!

most of the conditions that were supposedly being treated by these drugs could also
be found in the drugs very own list of side effects!

agitation, anxiety, depression, irritability, persistent crying, unusual sadness,
aggression, hostility.. just to name a few!

my first thought? how could these drugs be approved by the FDA?

this was a question that would take me further than i ever could have imagined. and as for my friend? to put it simply, i never got him back.
