United Nations Psychiatric Rules More Strict Than American System, Freedom Dies Some More





And I thought American psychiatry was conformist. Hahaha. Psychiatry is personal opinion masquerading as science. The UN standards make it easier than the American version to deny freedom to individuals. Psychiatrists declare speech and behavior, which they do not like or do not understand, expression protected by the US Constitution as mental illness. It will get worse. Ordinary civilians need to identify propaganda which promotes this evil killer of freedom and liberty.

[From article]
In 1950, the American Psychiatric Association undertook the revision and expansion of a nosology of mental disorders, which was originally compiled in support of the WWII effort by the War Department under the auspices of the surgeon general. Largely based on that work, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM I) was published in 1952. The DSM I contained 106 mental disorders.
[. . .]
Since its initial publication, American mental health professionals have used the DSM to understand the elusive boundaries between normal and abnormal mental states and to alleviate mental suffering.
[. . .]



The personality disorders have always been controversial. It's impossible to find a clear dividing line between normal individual differences and ascribed abnormality.
[. . .]
It is a subjective decision. Also, the personality disorders are culturally bound. Narcissism in one cultural context can be healthy, adaptive self-advancement in another.
[. . .]






A diagnostic nomenclature that is not theoretically robust enough to lead to helpful treatments is nothing more than idle name-calling.
The ICD-10 has just pulverized the theoretical foundations of personality disorders into idle name-calling.
[. . .]
The U.N.'s occupy medicine movement has done to personality diagnosis what Occupy Wall Street did to police cars.
[. . .]



The term “defective” has been considered unethical and abusive for years. It is a disgrace to psychiatry and psychology to accept a document that has the term “defective” in it. Who are moral defectives today?
[. . .]



Humanity is tragically familiar with how totalitarian regimes seize power. They attack intellectuals and artists first. Now that this obfuscating laxation has been installed in every computer in every medical clinic and hospital in America, it will become easier for transnational elites to control American medical research and practice. But why have the medical and allied professions and the insurers accepted the U.N.'s travesty of their knowledge and values? Why have the monopolistic mega-insurers agreed that the coding they use for payment be authorized by a division of the U.N.?



Here is an answer from the trenches of mental health: American medicine is controlled by the federal government through Medicare, Medicaid, and the new public-private syndicate called Obamacare. The federal government-insurer cartel has made the biggest sweetheart deal in history. The government protects pseudo-private big insurance from true free-market competition and antitrust scrutiny. Concurrently, the federal government stealthily and relentlessly works to make Americans subjects of the U.N. Doctors function as serfs for big insurance, which is a de facto bureaucratic arm of the federal government, which in turn collects billions of taxpayer dollars. All of these players, caring more about money than ethics or nation, are consenting to UN control.
