Feds Seek “Mental Health” Testing of All Children, Adults

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Next time you visit your doctor, be careful how you respond to his questions, or you may just be branded “mentally ill” and subjected to “treatment.” That is because a panel advising the Obama administration, in partnership with Big Psychiatry, wants to make doctors subject all American adults and children over age 12 to screening for alleged “mental health” disorders — particularly depression, at least to start with. Then, anyone found to harbor any alleged mental disorder, including children as young as eight, should undergo “therapy,” often including powerful psychotropic medications that experts say have dubious value but often come with well-documented and highly dangerous side effects.

Your ObamaCare plan will be forced to pay for it, whether you want it or not, thanks to the federal government's commandeering of the health-insurance industry under the so-called Affordable Care Act. And eventually, younger and younger children will be in Big Brother's crosshairs for mental and behavioral health “services,” whether parents want it or not. School teachers, social workers, and more are all already being enlisted in the federal government's search for supposed “mental and behavioral health” issues — a list that is perpetually expanding as psychiatrists invent new “illnesses.” The outcry against the federal government's obsession with your mind and the minds of America's children, though, is growing louder, as critics call the agenda “depressing” and worry whether it is another scheme to disarm more Americans.

They want to put everyone on drugs, numb of all the pain of thinking for themselves.

Problem solved.

NEVER, EVER, trust a doctor...they are being made agents of the state. People who do not lie to them will PAY, and PAY BIG.

Just tell them what they need to know, to treat you that day - that is all they need to know. Otherwise you’re healthy, don’t smoke, don’t drink, don’t eat, don’t do drugs, and are happy as a butterfly, EVERY FRIGGEN DAY.

Otherwise they’ll be collecting your guns.

“Is this like the rat test in the movie “1984”?”

In the USSR, many of the criminals were sent to mental hospitals for treatment.

And or course, quotation marks around everything in the previous sentence.

Absolutely unconstitutional and oppressive. We do NOT live in a communist regime despite what Obama thinks. Obama’s the one who needs to get his head examined.

Once again the call is to STATES to reject and nullify such egregious, outrageous, and unconstitutional acts of the feds if this was actually implemented.

Remember unconstitutional federal acts are by definition acts of tyranny. Each and every one of them. They are to be resisted in every way possible including, as Reagan said, “At point of bayonet” if necessary.

Next time you visit your doctor, be careful how you respond to his questions
When I fill out the questionnaires, even for my doctor of many years, I leave 99% of it blamk. Nurse always says -- "You forgot to finish ..." and I always reply - "No I didn't."
And while seeing the doctor I give him name, rank and serial number only.

OK, here’s a solution. Only go to doctors belonging to a “church” (created by the medical profession) to which the members (you) confess your “sins”. I really don’t think the government would cross that line, and if so, only once.

Link mental health screening with the right to keep and bear arms. I think this is the ultimate goal of the government - to disarm us.

That way we won’t feel it when they light the furnace and incinerate all of us.

I think this is where the liberals’ involuntary “assisted suicide” is going to kick in.

OK, then start the testing with all current politicians. Remove from office immediately all who do not pass. Begin at the top, POTUS.
