And, they are physically and sexually abused at rates much higher than the national average while in State foster care, too…

Jessi C.: They should check out MA too…when my nephew came back from foster care he was on Adderall and Risperdal, with no real diagnosis…the doctor my mom bought him to couldn’t believe it. Turns out he’s fine doesn’t need anything. DCF claimed he was schizophrenic…lies…all lies!

(Justin Gardner) After years of growing concern, the California state auditor has produced a damning reportdescribing how the state’s 79,000 foster children are being drugged with psychotropic medications at abnormally high rates.

The report found that nearly 12 percent of kids in California’s child welfare system were prescribed psychotropic medications – including antipsychotics, antidepressants and mood stabilizers – during 2014-2015. This compares to a rate of 4 to 10 percent for non-foster kids.

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “Psychiatry is Historically-Rooted in Racism, Oppression, Pseudo-Science, and Propping Up the Power of the State“…

Rayn: Psychiatry is historically-rooted in racism, oppression, pseudo-science, and propping up the power of the State. These quacks once treated the human desire for freedom as a diagnosable disease.

Also, look up “dysaesthesia aethiopica,” then go back even further, and research Benjamin Rush, MD , the “father of American Psychiatry,” to learn about the racist disease he invented, called “negritude.” His ugly mug was featured on the official American Psychiatric Association seal for almost a century!

“Did you know? Before the Civil War, some psychiatrists diagnosed slaves with what they called drapetomania: “a mental illness in which the slave possessed an irrational desire for freedom and a tendency to try to escape.”

“Did you know? Before the Civil War, some psychiatrists diagnosed slaves with what they called drapetomania: “a mental illness in which the slave possessed an irrational desire for freedom and a tendency to try to escape.”

Stacie T.: Now they apply it to everyone and call it Oppositional Personality Disorder.

Rayn: Yup. ODD is such a joke…

Jason R.: that is why we need to change from the medical to the social model!

Jason R.: there is too much abuses that come from psychiatric medicine.

Jason R.: it is also rooted in eugenics

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Psychologic-Anarchist,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, after I posted artwork from the page, “LibertyManiacs.com“…

Rayn: Warning: Politicians have been shown to cause serious harm to human beings and destruction of private property.

“Warning: Politicians have been shown to cause serious harm to human beings and destruction of private property.

Jesus G.: what about doctors that practice Western Medicine?”

Rayn: No doubt, Jesus. For a good starting point on that topic, you can take a virtual trip through the “Psychiatry: An Industry of Death Museum”:

Jonas A.: I think someone was drinking some Kool Aid from coffee cups…lol

Steven L.: Even dictatorships and theocracies have politicians. The public chooses to elevate them to their position. The fault lies not in the stars but in ourselves.
