Dr. Hyla Cass: First Do No Harm
Green mental health, psychiatrist, psychiatric drugs, dangerous, mental illness, antidepressants, antipsychotics, drug withdrawal, side effects, bi-polar, depression, natural cures, physical causes, medical condition
Psychiatrist Hyla Cass describes how most psychiatrists simply label patients mentally ill based solely on symptoms and put them on dangerous and addictive drugs, instead of doing complete physical examinations to find and treat underlying medical conditions which can manifest as psychiatric symptoms. There are numerous non-harmful medical solutions that patients are not being offered in the field of psychiatry, and instead being put on drugs with serious and deadly side effects that are highly addictive. Dr. Cass also discusses the severe withdrawal effects of psychiatric drugs and what patients need to know about safely getting off of these drugs under a doctor’s supervision. For more information and resources on alternative treatments for people with mental problems or finding practitioners to assist with getting off of psychiatric drugs go to our Alternatives page.

CCHR Co-founder Dr. Thomas Szasz Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus
Dr. Thomas Szasz is Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus at the State University of New York Health Science Center, Adjunct Scholar at the Cato Institute and a Lifetime Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. He is perhaps the world’s leading social critic of the moral and scientific foundations of psychiatry, having authored more than 35 books on the subject, starting with The Myth of Mental Illness, a book which rocked the world of psychiatry upon its release more than 50 years ago.
What’s Wrong with Psychiatry? A Psychiatrist Explains…
Dr. Niall McLaren, a practicing psychiatrist for 22 years, explains what is wrong with the psychiatric profession: That this is an industry which cannot take criticism, for fear the entire model of biological psychiatry will unravel. That there is no science to psychiatric diagnoses, no brain based diseases. And that psychiatry only pushes mental disorders as biological disease in order to convince people to take psychiatric drugs, causing a host of dangerous side effects.
Shane Ellison, award-winning chemist and former pharmaceutical scientist
Shane Ellison has a masters degree in organic chemistry and is a two-time recipient of the prestigious Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Grant for his studies in biochemistry and physiology. Here Shane exposes the inner workings of the psycho/pharmaceutical industry, the manufacture and marketing of psychiatric drugs and the fact that the psycho/pharma industry is well aware their drugs do not cure anyone. He previously worked for both Array BioPharma and Eli Lilly.
Green Mental Health: An Alternative to Toxic Psychiatric Drugs
Psychiatry’s solution to life’s problems is the administration of mind-altering toxic drugs which according to the FDA can cause mania, worsening depression, anxiety, delusions, seizures, liver failure, suicide, mania, heart attack, stroke, fatal blood clots, sudden death, diabetes and much more. Green Mental Health Care is a non-toxic, non-additive and non-invasive approach to mental health which focuses on workable medical, not psychiatric, solutions that have better patient outcomes and are not harmful or toxic to those seeking help…

The CIA Doctors: Psychiatry & Mind Control
Psychiatrist Colin Ross, author of The CIA Doctors and Military Mind Control describes the longstanding relationship between intelligence agencies, the military, psychiatry and psychology in Mind Control experiments on unwitting subjects, including use of LSD, psychiatric drugs, radiation, brain electrode implants, hypnosis, verified through government documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
Dr. Mary Ann Block, Medical director of the Block Center, is an outspoken critic of children being diagnosed ADHD and put on drugs documented to cause tics, stunted growth, heart attack, stroke and sudden death. She describes how parents are being misinformed about the medical legitimacy of ADHD and the dangers of the drugs being prescribed to treat children. She encourages parents to have their child given a full medical examination to find underlying medical problems that are being misdiagnosed as a mental disorder.
Depression Test Puts Kids’ Health at Risk
Mental health screening is a tool of the psycho/pharmaceutical industry, used as a feeder line to get more kids and adults on drugs. “Depression Screening Day” was created by Signs Of Suicide, a group receiving millions in Pharma funding. See www.signsofsuicide.org/ for the documents.
Dr. Thomas Szasz, Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus
CCHR’s co-founder, Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus, Dr. Thomas Szasz, has been challenging his own profession for decades, calling psychiatry a “pseudoscience.” According to Edwin Shurr of the Atlantic Monthly, Szasz has probably “…done more than any other man to alert the American public to the potential dangers of an excessively psychiatrized society.”

ADHD—The Challenge
Get the facts – http://www.cchrint.org/psychiatric-disorders/ 20 million kids have been labeled mentally ill and drugged for mental “disorders” that are simply based on checklists of behaviors. Get the facts, not the marketing campaigns http://www.cchrint.org/psychiatric-disorders/
Big Pharma—Define ‘Better’
Featuring Chill EB – Psycho/pharma spends billions of dollars a year marketing mental ‘disorders’ & drugs for kids — yet these drugs are documented by international drug regulatory agencies to cause mania, psychosis, hallucinations, suicide, violence, homicidal ideation, heart attack, stroke and death. What’s more, they are being prescribed for psychiatric disorders that are simply a checklist of behaviors.
ADHD—Labeling normal kids “mentally ill”
ADHD is a bogus mental “disorder” based off a checklist of behaviors. There are no medical tests to prove any child has ADHD, yet more than 4.5 million kids have been diagnosed and put on drugs such as Ritalin, Adderall and Concerta, which the U.S. DEA places in the same highly addictive category of drugs as cocaine, morphine and opium. The “checklist” for ADHD could fit any normal child and literally includes such ridiculous criteria as
“loses pencils or toys”
“often does not seem to listen”
“is easily distracted by extraneous stimuli” (what kid isn’t?)
“fidgets”
” runs about or climbs excessively in situations when it is not appropriate” (we are talking about KIDS here… right?)
To summarize; there are no blood tests, brain scans, chemical imbalance tests, X-rays or “genetic” factors to prove any child has a mental “illness” called ADHD. This is simply a list of child-like behaviors that psychiatrists clustered together, repackaged as a mental disorder and the result is a multi billion dollar empire — the child labeling and drugging industry.
Psychiatry—Labeling Kids with Bogus ‘Mental Disorders’
20 Million Kids & Adolescents are labeled with “mental disorders” that are based solely on a checklist of behaviors. There are no brain scans, x-rays, genetic or blood tests that can prove they are “mentally ill”, yet these children are stigmatized for life with psychiatric disorders, and prescribed dangerous, life-threatening psychiatric drugs. Child drugging is a $4.8 billion-a-year industry. Get the facts about this multi-billion dollar industry that is labeling and drugging kids for profit.

Top APA Psychiatrist Needs Lesson in Disease vs. Disorder
The President of the American Psychiatric Association (APA), psychiatrist Nada Stotland, obviously needs a bit of a lesson on the difference between a disease and a “mental disorder,” given her recent comments. Diseases can be confirmed by medical/scientific tests. Mental disorders are simply checklists of behaviors.
Psychiatry: No Science, No Cures
Psychiatrists openly admitting at an American Psychiatric Association conference that they have no scientific tests to show mental “illnesses” are biological or physical diseases, and that they have no cures for these unproven mental illnesses.
The DSM: Inventing Mental Illness
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders is made up, it is fiction, it is fabricated by psychiatrists. Members of a panel vote on what goes into it, then they immediately start calling them “diseases”. This is fraud.
Few people aren’t affected in some way by psychiatric drugs in society—be it a family member, friend or co-worker, or just from the news of another act of violence tied to psychiatric drugs. Find out more about psychiatric drugs in the videos below.
Read the warnings/studies on psychiatric drugs and violence here or visit CCHR’s psychiatric drug search engine here to see all international drug regulatory warnings, studies and adverse reaction reports filed with the US FDA (from 2004-2001), There have been 22 international drug regulatory warnings issued on psychiatric drugs causing violence, mania, hostility, aggression, psychosis, and other violent type reactions. These warnings have been issued in the United States, European Union, Japan, United Kingdom, Australia and Canada. By the FDA’s own admission, only 1 to 10% of side effects are ever reported to them, so the actual number of adverse reactions is substantially higher than what is contained within these reports.
Psychiatric Drugs—Search Warnings, Studies, & Side Effects
Click here to visit the psychiatric drug search engine provided as a free public service by CCHR International, which contains a full list of international drug regulatory warnings & studies issued on psychiatric drugs, along with all adverse reaction reports on psychiatric drugs which have been filed with the US FDA from 2004 – 2011 by doctors, pharmacists, other healthcare providers, consumers and attorneys. All of this information has been compiled into one easy to search online search engine by the staff of CCHR International in order to provide the public at large with the facts about psychiatric drug dangers. By the FDA’s own admission, only 1 — 10% of drug side effects are ever reported to the FDA so the numbers contained in this database are much lower than what is actually occurring out in the consumer market. As psychiatric drugs are approved solely on short clinical trials (4-6 weeks), with virtually no long term studies once they are released for mass consumption into the consumer market – the Medwatch reports represent the only real post market surveillance of these drugs. This search engine essentially comprises all known, documented risks of psychiatric drugs. It does not contain opinion, just documented studies, warnings and post market data.

Drugging Our Children—Side Effects
20 million children are taking psychiatric drugs, and parents, legislators and the general public are not being given the documented risks from international drug regulatory agencies and medical journals. CCHR has created a one of a kind psychiatric drug database containing all international warnings and studies on psychiatric drugs in an easy to search online database. People can search for drugs like Ritalin, Adderall, Prozac, Zoloft, Seroquel (any brand name drug) or by drug class such as antidepressant, antipsychotic or stimulant. They can also search all adverse reactions to psychiatric drugs that have been reported to the U.S. FDA between 2004-2008. cchrint.org/psychdrugdangers
Psychiatric drugs, including antidepressants, antipsychotics and stimulants, have serious, life threatening side effects and patient’s are rarely warned about the full risks of the drugs. International drug regulatory agencies including the U.S. FDA warn that these drugs can and do cause worsening depression, mania, aggression, psychosis, depersonalization, diabetes, hallucinations, suicidal and homicidal thoughts, heart attack, stroke and sudden death.

Psychiatric Abuse of the Elderly
Psychiatry and those who follow their practices (drugs, restraints, electroshock) have no reverence or respect for the elderly, and employ dangerous drugs and ‘treatments’ as a method of control and keeping them quiet. They will happily supply endless prescriptions of psychoactive drugs or ECT. In just a six-month time period in 2007, Medicare received $309 million in claims for antipsychotics for elderly in nursing homes. Daniel R. Levinson, Office of Inspector General (OIG), Department of Health and Human Services, stated recently, “Despite the fact that it is potentially lethal to prescribe antipsychotics to patients with dementia, there’s ample evidence that some drug companies aggressively marketed their products towards such populations, putting profits before safety…. Government, taxpayers, nursing home residents, as well as their families and caregivers should be outraged — and seek solutions.”
Electroshock — It’s Not Treatment, It’s Torture
Electroshock, renamed electroconvulsive therapy or ECT is not only still being given to hundreds of thousands per year, but frequently without their consent. Documented effects of electroshock include short and long term memory loss, brain seizures, life-threatening cardiovascular events and death. Psychiatrists admit they don’t know how ECT “works” but that doesn’t stop them from administering it to hundreds of thousands of people per year, including the elderly, children and pregnant women. Recently, press have reported that ECT is making a “comeback” but what most don’t realize, is that electroshock (ECT) never went away.
Antidepressants and Child Suicides – “Home Movie”
Antidepressants have been documented by the FDA and international drug regulatory agencies to cause suicide, mania, psychosis and violence. Parents are frequently not warned about the drug risks.
Psychiatric Drugs and Child Suicides – “Matt”
The FDA issued black box warnings in 2004 that antidepressants can cause suicide in children and adolescents. The FDA also reports antidepressants have side effects including mania, psychosis, hostility, depersonalization, worsening depression and more. Parents are not being completely informed of these documented risks.

This whole conversation is heartbreaking at every level. It is necessary that somehow we need to start addressing nutritional needs of children a the earliest possible age. We know we cannot always address their emotional needs which are often hidden under a blanket of fear and abuse. And we must be careful that we never add more burden. Maybe it will be possible that pediatricians and other M.D.ss will be trained to spot nutritional deficiencies and be able to address the problem without fear of retaliation from allopathic medicine. We must be organized in that direction without always being confrontational. Being confrontational only stirs the hornets’ nest but sometimes is necessary. We must gather FACTS to accompany our opinions.
Great real science
In the early 1900s many doctors had taken note that people who were said to have become severely mentally ill would have complete recoveries with only pleasant surroundings and good food. We don’t have that food today. We now have GM high pesticide processed food that is irradiated and then mostly micro waved.
In 1950 only one in five hundred was said to have a mental illness and a large percentage of those were allowed to have a full recovery. Today after all drugs the number of mentally ill is said to have risen to one in fifty however the Mds now constantly try to get old and young on a psychiatric drug as they continue to demonize and openly attack vitamins and minerals.
The discovery of the essential vitamins and nutrients for human life and the ability to test their levels in the body is real science.
Psychiatric drugs are not a healing treatment. Psychiatric drugs only damage and disable the brain, internal organs, cardiovascular and hormonal systems as they deplete the vitamins and nutrients. This is especially destructive for young children that are trying to learn and who have brains that will not be fully developed until the age of 25.
Does the USA need this? No, the former Soviet Union has no such mass drugging labeling and hyper phychophobic disabling of its children before their brains ever get a chance to develop.
These are lethal treatment’s inhumane treatment and a human-American constitutional right violation that should not be used on the worst criminals. Ignorance or complacency is never going to change that.
I am a high school teacher…I often witness students expressing the negative side effects of these drugs during class. I have one ninth grader who will laugh and look as if she is having a conversation with someone; I have another who is pretty much zombied out…;another who look to have constant disorientation going on; a common thread for these students is they are angry…so I try not to irritate them… Teaching is no longer fun or safe because of students. The worst part is that these parents encourage, support these drugs because it is easier on them than to have to deal with their child’s personality.
One of the entitlements of the health care reform act called the Mother’s Act is for funds to be available to psychiatry andpharmaceuticals to set up shop in the schools and continue their assurance of making money by evaluating and treating children on the school campus.

I’m stuck. Every year my parents have me incacerated. have tried to beat them to it by checking into private clinics and have been sectioned and hundcuffed whilst buying newspapers with a nurse twice and picked up by the police when all my reports say i was managable.
Pls note not in an an ambulance but a criminal van. I have been going round in circles. all my friends have dropped me, have been seriously vegetated on forced drugs, had my looks stolen having turned into a puffer fish and lose work as soon as they get hold of the gossip. i live on a tiny island. My lwayers don’t want to litigate and have tried many as my parents are very affluential and friends with the minister of health etc. the most i could do was draw up a contract with a dr to state i wld like to be treated at home but my parents won’t comly. I’m fucked. how am I going to change this pattern. been illegaly icacerated on the island and despite my several degrees can’t realy get work. just got unfair dismissal a few days ago coz they heard i was in a nut house. If this pattern is to continue, after 15years I’d like to put a gun to my head but I have a son, and my parents wld only do the same to him. HELP!
Finally, a sensible approach to medical treatment of mental illness. As someone who survived the deplorable and fraudulent practices of psychiatric drugging as a teen, I am tremendously relieved to see a psychiatrist who is actually deserving of the designation “physician.”
This was a good one. Basically what Dr. Cass had said, does happen in our daily life. So, this fact cannot be ignored that the psychiatrists do take advantage of their sitting at the other end of the table.
Very nice to see one of the few psychiatrists with good intentions speaking out about these things. If we keep up the work with wiping out psychiatry people like Dr Cass can step in with workable methods as the one’s she describes. I guess though that there must be agreed to give it a new name. “Psychiatry” has for a very long time been the equivalent to evilness and greed.
Thanks Dr Cass for being a person who truly want to help.
Thank you Dr. Cass, wish my beloved Aaron could have known you. Too bad you are a “rare commodity” in the psychiatric profession.

Great video. I like the analogy of the bandaid. I have seen my sister and mother coming off a drug and it was not fun. To make things worse the psychiatrist said – see you need the drugs. That is your mental illness returning. Thanks for putting this information out there.
Amen and Amen. I know what this woman is saying is true because I’ve lived 20 years with a family member who has been mistreated and abused with forced psychiatric treatment. Thank God for this doctor who is telling, what we have come to know as truth, by personal experience.
[...] Go here to learn more about CCHR the mental health watchdog! [...]
This is such a bull shit. Don’t you understand their tactics. They will have some of their profession go all in for critique, to win the people moving away from psychiatry, but telling them the same old stories as their corrupt colleques in just an other package.
This is how they work. But please understand that the cause of all the problems is this ‘psychiatric vision’. This is what should end.
The human mind is more then a product of biochemical processes in the brain.
For every measurable disease in the body, there is a specialist. In gerenal you go to a GP.
For mental problems, you need an expert on that field: a psychotherapist.
Psychiatrists are scammers. Theire psychiatric vision itself is destructive, and has led ‘naturally’ to those drugs and other evil practices.
Psychiatrists need to go. It is something within them (a general unspoken belief) that the problem is.
Finally some one who knows, speaks out in the truth of this deplorable over medicated world. We need many , many more like Dr Cass, and as I hear young people say they wish to go into psychiatry[highest paid] I can now say “do so and make it Green” Yea, for her bravery and honesty in speaking up as we need to leave the standard which results in major loss of humanity and dysfunction that is so unnecessary.
Kudos Doc!
