New blog chronicles new articles on psychiatric overdrugging…
This new blog is a collection of newpaper articles and headlines for the nation’s top newspapers exposing the rampant drugging of our most vulnerable population to abuse: children and the elderly. As long as nurses obey and don’t speak out this kind of abuse goes un-noticed. But obviously this is a concern to the average person when we start reading in the newspapers the widespread financial incentives for drugging our kids and the elderly. Somebody is making a lot of money and it’s not nurses! But we are the ones caring for these patients and have to intervene when the side-effects of these drugs do their damage. As the side-effects continue to destroy the patients lives we end up being busier caring for these victims of psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry. Side-effects such as diabetes from atypical antipsychotics, tardive dyskinesia from SSRIs and antipsychotics, depression as a side-effect, loss of memory, loss of initiative and apathy for their own care, GI upsets, ataxia, drug dependency….need I go on? When you look at the effects of using these drugs on people and weigh the alternative of not using them, you will find, in study after study, that it would be better NOT to use harmful psychiatric drugs at all. I’m not talking about the violent, psychotic criminal here, I’m talking about little Jeffrey or Melissa who is on ADHD drugs and antipsychotics, etc. We are talking about millions of kids who are being farmed in our schools with subjective symptoms of a “disorder”. Nurses, where is your conscience? Where is your application of our Nurses Code of Ethics? Go back and read Article 5 of the Declaration of Human Rights….
