Quite simply, there is no such thing as a psychiatric disorder/disease/chemical imbalance.

So I guess I can tell my bipolar mother that she need not be on the meds that keep her out of the mental health facilities that we have had to twice commit her to when she went off those meds.

And I’m pretty sure that the act of posting a thread does not entitle you to limit what is and is not discussed on the thread. You don’t ‘own’ the thread, only folks whose delusions of grandeur are currently untreated by meds think so (just a weak attempt at topical humor).

The devastating effects of bipolar disorder have long been known. Just watch a person live through a manic phase one time and tell me there’s nothing brain/biochemical related. Their entire personality and mannerisms change. Something as simple as a lithium salt can keep it at bay. And this has been known long before the era of big pharma and rampant over prescribing.

The conclusions offered are an embarrassment.

You are correct. The author is ignorant, and is using his false religion of scientology as a tool to lie to as many people as possible, and the poster of this thread appears to be one of his guppy minins trying to spread the word. Kooks.
