To some American psychiatrists, this action remains a chilling reminder that if scientific principles are not fought for, they can be lost--a disillusioning warning that unless we make no exceptions to science...

Psychiatry: politics masquerading as science.

From its beginning to today, without break.

All the DSM entries result from politics, and still do, hiding behind the myth of "mental illness".

Unfortunately that is what has happened with psychiatric science to a large degree...it has become so heavily politicized...hence the need for NARTH.

I don't know about your statement that all DSM Dx result from politics as being totally true, especially the Axis I's. If they ever declassifiy the various schizophrenias, we are in big trouble!!! Most of those people are seriously mentally ill!!!....AND DANGEROUS.
