It was titled “Drug Development in Psychiatry: 50 Years of Failure and How to Resuscitate It.” What does Nutt claim is the reason for that failure? Not the number of randomized trials that have shown that psychiatric drugs do more harm than good. Not the revelation that it’s almost impossible to get off these drugs without horrible withdrawal ordeals. Not the studies that show that suicide rates double for those who are taking antidepressants. Nope. It’s those pesky anti-psychiatry folks who are at fault. “Unlike other branches of medicine,” Nutt claims, “psychiatry is in constant battles with lobby groups that oppose its very existence as a medical specialty.” According to Nutt, anti-psychiatry lobby groups “deny the concept of mental illness being due to alterations in brain function, from which it follows that they do not believe in pharmacological treatments and actively campaign to have them banned

Executives Accused of $100 Million Adderall Fraud Michigan Psych Patients Committed Involuntarily for Medicaid Profits Contact Us Autism’s “Incurable,” So Let’s Just Go Ahead and Drug ‘Em     August 26, 2025      The word Autism initially meant “self-absorbed.” It was coined in the early 1900s by the racist  psychiatrist Eugen Bleuler, who also brought us the term “schizophrenia.” He then recommended the enforced sterilization of anyone diagnosed with schizophrenia in order to avoid the racial deterioration that would evolve from these “mental and physical cripples,” as he defined those mentally ill.      Bleuler said schizophrenia was a “chronic and incurable” mental illness, thus exiling those diagnosed with it from any possibility of being helped. Hence, their mandatory sterilization. His medicalization of mental illness was new, and his eugenics theories and philosophy soon became handy justifications for the mass racial cleansing programs of the Third Reich.      Autism, too, has been similarly medicalized and, in fact, the first word that appears when Googling it is “incurable.”      Fifty years ago, only one child out of 2000 was  considered autistic. Today psychiatrists estimate that one child out of every 31 have autism, and they worry that even more have it but are not being diagnosed. One predominant theory today is that 90 percent of autism is genetically based…just like Bleuler’s schizophrenia.      That rise in the estimate of autistic children over the last fifty years is coincident with the expanded definition of the term through the five incarnations of psychiatry’s DSM. Their current  umbrella term, Autism Spectrum Disorder, was coined in DSM V, but that term merely describes symptoms, not causes, of the condition.       Consequently, the declaration of who is displaying those symptoms is highly subjective because it’s only based on personal observation. The “deficits” in social communication and interaction and the repetitive patterns of behavior which are said to define autism today have no objective
