Why Psychiatry Holds Enormous Power in Society Despite Losing Scientific Credibility
"Wall Street is not the only arena where one can be completely wrong and still retain powerful influence. Influential "thought leader" psychiatrists and major psychiatry institutions, by their own recent admissions, have been repeatedly wrong about illness/disorder validity, biochemical causes and drug treatments. In several cases, they have been discovered to be on the take from drug companies, yet continue to be taken seriously by the mainstream media."
This is an article with many links on subjects that have been in many cases already covered on Phoenix Rising
