America is the most medicated nation in the world.
According to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) at least half of all Americans takes at least one prescription drug, with one in six taking three or more medications.” Meanwhile, in its study, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention looked at 2.4 billion drugs prescribed in visits to doctors and hospitals in 2005. (In 2014, that number jumped to 3.2 billion drug prescriptions!) Of those 2.4 billion in 2005, 118 million were for antidepressants. According to psychiatry, depression is a mental illness – a chemical imbalance in the brain, an organic neurological disorder. Does that mean that as many as a hundred million Americans have something wrong with their brain?
In 2014, 3.2 billion drugs were prescribed in visits to doctors and hospitals!
Patrick Wanis, interviews Psychiatrist Peter Breggin, author of “Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications.” Dr Breggin reveals to Patrick Wanis that there is no scientific evidence that depression is a chemical imbalance and says it’s a big lie being sold by the major pharmaceutical companies to the public and says that the anti-depressants are creating long-term, permanent damage to the brain and resulting in deaths, suicides, violence and murder. Patrick Wanis and Peter Breggin reveal the real causes of ADD and ADHD and offer real solutions for overcoming depression and finding happiness.
