Psychiatric "Chemical Imbalance Fraud" confirmed by Three New England
States

Kevin Hall

BOSTON – Massachusetts, Maine and Rhode Island have released statements
undercutting the fraudulent "chemical imbalance of the brain" marketing
that is the foundation of billions of psycho-pharmaceutical dollars and
the entire mental health diagnosis process/

All six New England state mental health agencies were given FOIA
requests to produce documents "showing a) the existence of chemical
imbalance of the brain, b) any known test for chemical imbalance of the
brain and c) any test that shows what a correct chemical balance of the
brain would be." While Vermont, New Hampshire and Connecticut
continually refused to answer this very controversial request, the
other three New England states admitted to having no such data or
documents. (The documents are at www.cchreus.org under "news items.")

"Psychiatry, drug companies and their front groups, like the National
Alliance for the Mentally Ill, have fraudulently claimed for years that
their mental disorders are illnesses that are based on brain chemical
imbalances that can only be corrected by psychiatric drugs," said Kevin
Hall, New England Director of the Citizens Commission on Human Rights
(CCHR) that was established by the Church of Scientology.

"This data confirms that psychiatry's drugging and diagnosing have no
scientific basis whatsoever."

Per CCHR and other critics of psychiatry, millions of adults and
children are merely being dangerously drugged to mask behavioral
symptoms which is the same reason people often take street drugs.

CCHR also points out that unlike medical illnesses that are found
through scientific research and discovery, mental disorders are merely
groups of symptoms that are voted into existence by American
Psychiatric Association committees.

"In effect, three New England states are now admitting that they have
paid billions of dollars to institutionalize people, remove children
from families and funnel school children into a mental health system
that labels and drugs them for no scientific reason," said Hall.
"Cancer and diabetes can be scientifically diagnosed while calling
ADHD, anxiety or alcoholism a medical disease is simply a lie. The
clothes have been removed from the psychiatric emperor."

marketing, visit the cchreus.org homepage and click on "fraudulent
marketing."

Nope, Fooled,

It was a call to arms OVER THERE.

***************************************

Over There

Johnnie, get your gun,
Get your gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run,
On the run, on the run.

Hear them calling, you and me,
Every son of liberty.
Hurry right away,
No delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad
To have had such a lad.

Tell your sweetheart not to pine,
To be proud her boy's in line.

(chorus sung twice)
Johnnie, get your gun,
Get your gun, get your gun,
Johnnie show the Hun
Who's a son of a gun.

Hoist the flag and let her fly,
Yankee Doodle do or die.
Pack your little kit,
Show your grit, do your bit.

Yankee to the ranks,
>From the towns and the tanks.
Make your mother proud of you,
And the old Red, White and Blue.
(chorus sung twice)

Chorus
Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word over there -
That the Yanks are coming,
The Yanks are coming,
The drums rum-tumming
Ev'rywhere.

So prepare, say a pray'r,
Send the word, send the word to beware.
We'll be over, we're coming over,
And we won't come back till it's over
Over there.

Here;s what I wanted to take "over there", but I was cut off at the
pass. The "Voice Your Opinion"
won't take me anywhere.

LOL Shades of Tom Cruise.
Science fiction writer, bigamist, liar and conman extraordinaire L. Ron
Hubbard would be proud of his Psych Kops, who are still trying to
fulfill Hubbard's impossible mission of destroying Psychiatry and
replacing it with Scientology.

There are chemical and hormonal imbalances that can and do cause mental
and physical problems. Some of them can be and are treated by
medications. Recent research by the medical profession has found a
link between ADD and the mother's use of alcohol and tobacco during
pregnancy. An imbalance of hormones can cause severe post partum
depression, which can NOT be cured by the "vitamin therapy" of Tom
Cruise and Scientology.

Ask L. Ron's "Psych Busters" what proof is there for *ANY* of Hubbard's
"body thetans", "engrams", and "past lives" theories being the cause of
mental AND physical problems.

Ask L. Ron's "Psych Busters" what the Scientology "recommended"
treatment for mental illness is.

perhaps cchr could serve foia requests to state and
national health agencies to produce documents showing
any known test for kawasaki syndrome. i understand that
john travolta and kelly preston think their son has/had
that. since there is no known test for that disease,
they are just treating the symptoms of an imaginary
illness.

they're being defrauded by their doctor, who diagnosed
the kid--with no scientific basis whatsoever--using
a list of symptoms. while kawasaki syndrome is not a
mental illness (cchr's focus), it is similar in some
respects (unknown cause, no definitive test, diagnosis
by list of symptoms, treatment of symptoms only) and
cchr has *lots* of experience with those kinds of
issues. i'm sure they would be happy to help.

OK, I get it now! Thanks for the clarification. The "Voice Your
Opinion" thing didn't want me either I guess. Perhaps it's set up for
'no comments. Never the less, here's my opinion:

The IRS should deny CCHR and the main Scientology organizations their
tax exempt status for using tax exempt dollars for it's HATE agenda
against the mentally ill. The manner of attacking the mentally ill to
destroy the pharmacutical and psychiatric communities, all under the
guise of spiritual need and religion.

Scientology an enemy of the disabled and in need. Scientology and
Dianetics cannot help any one with mental health issues. Dianetics is
not even a science. If it was, it would help people with mental
illness. And since that fact could cost the church money, they choose
to attack those that ARE doing something to help the mentally ill:
mental health professionals and the pharmacutical companies who make
mental illness medications. I am not a proponient of any of these
groups but it is ethically and morally wrong what CCHR and Scientology
are doing with tax free $$ and charitable contributions. It's a crime.

Comment from: Jerald [Member]

The readers should also be aware that CCHR was founded by and is funded
by the cult of $cientology. Yes the very one South Park did the show
about. No state has ever said what the writer here claims. If it had
the funding would have been stopped for mental health programs. Mental
disorders have been studied for well over 50 years and everyone of us
knows someone who is dealing with it.

Anyone with a little thought can file a FOIA request with types of
questions designed to bring a bad responce. And CCHR and $cientology
have been known to play with words and numbers in the past. But hey, Go
take a look at their silly little web sites. After all the writer even
went so far as to quote himself here.

Then go to xenu.net and xenutv.com and see the other side. Don't let
him or me push you one way or the next. See both sides for yourself and
then you get to decide.

I do not condone the abuse of this site. It's purpose is to provide a

According to the reply from the site, my not getting in the gate
probably has to do with "spam filters". The problem is I don't got no

Thanks for Hall's 'resume', lol!

I just went back and registered and posted this comment:

Comment from: FormerlyFooled [Member]
I used to be a volunteer for Citizens Commission on Human Rights ( CCHR
); I once believed the 'information' they provided me with. I was a
Scientologist who thought Dianetics and Scientology were the solutions
to the problems of the mentally ill, not the psychs or pharmacutical
industry, who were 'our enemies'.

The truth is, the Church of Scientology does not have solutions to help
the mentally ill; they do not want to help the mentally ill become
healthy nor do they have a technology to help them and others prone to
these debilitating conditions.

The mentally ill are poster-boys and poster-girls for CCHR's agenda to
destroy Scientology's perceived enemy : first the 'psychs' now the
'pharmas' as they have come to to be known.

This rumor of there not being a "chemical imbalance" was manufactured
by CCHR, who conveniently fail to provide commonly known scientific
evidence which actually supports the fact that such an imbalance
exists. Those 3 state representatives have been hoodwinked by the 'Cult
of Scientology' and shame on them for accepting rumor in place of fact
when making this accusation.
(If in fact the story os even true to begin with.)

CCHR would have us believe that the FDA knows nothing about chemistry
and lacks the best interests of consumers nationwide when approving
medications; this is false.

Don't you be hoodwinked, too

The internet abounds in research documentation supporting that a
chemical imbalance is at the root of mental illness. Even alternative
medicine researchers agree. CCHR does not want you to read these
things, They want to imbed your mind with THEIR propaganda because if
psychiatry prevails, Scientology dies.
Take a look at some of the information available:
Mental Health Matters article
The "Chemical Imbalance" in Mental Health Problems
http://www.mental-health-matters.com/articles/article.php?artID=160

"Chemical Imbalance - What is Chemical Imbalance, What Causes It ..."
http://www.anxiety-and-depression-solutions.com/articles/chemicalimbalance.htm

Read this Fair Use exerpt:

"Common chemical imbalances related to anxiety and depression related
disorders that have been observed in clinical practice include:

Reduced availability of neurotransmitters like Serotonin, Dopamine,
Norepinephrine, GABA and acetylcholine.

Increased levels of toxic neurochemicals such as Homocysteine
Lower levels of serum Magnesium, Zinc or Potassium

Unhealthy, or deficient levels of essential vitamins like B6, B9, B12
and Vitamin-C

Undersupply of key cofactors like amino acids that are used to help
transport neurotransmitter precursors into the blood-brain barrier.

Increased cortisol stress hormone levels

_______________________________________

If anyone wants to read how medication effects the chemical balance of
the brain or any part of the human body that is ill, all you have to do
is read the FDA drug approval reports for whichever medicine you are
concerned about:
http://www.fda.gov/cder/approval/index.htm

CCHR and it's mother 'church' Scientology have no alternative solution
to help people suffering from brain chemical imbalances.
Dianetic is not even a science and it is only employed to demonstate
that one needs the religion called Scientology. Some CCHR volunteers
are victims of this cult because they THINK they are helping people and
they THINK Scientology and Dianetics are the answers which the mentally
ill need - not psychiatry and medication. What is never made known to
them is the fact that Scientology and CCHR are not doing this to help
the mentally ill. They could care less about the mentally ill, or
anyone physically or disabled.

This supposed Church actually bars the ill from participation because
illness is like the mark of the beast to them. Here's two of many
reports found on alt.religion.scientology google newsgroup discussing
their distain of the disabled. Read how charitable CCHR and the Cult of
Scientology really are:

Former OC-ORG FBO-Admin
by Rev Dr John Benjamin Tatum DD PhD
"I have wanted to learn more. But now that I have all the time in the
world (heck, I even completed my education), they do not seem to want
me for staff or Sea Org. Because they see me as
"damaged goods" since I am in a wheelchair. Still send me all of their
fliers, but will not take me in (was even willing to go Sea Org). But I
did not even get any books,cassettes, or other items because I could
not afford them when I was on staff or even now since I have been on
disability since February of 1989.
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.religion.scientology/msg/7789eb2005ec6c3f

Disabled and Scientology...Questions....?
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.religion.scientology/browse_thread/thread/db5f0e0570599e59/14695b534c2f30bd?#14695b534c2f30bd

That is just a fraction of the information on what CCHR and the Church
of Scientology are about and it's enough to make one sick.

The IRS should recind the tax exempt status of Citizens Commission on
Human Rights and the main Church of Scientology organizations for
misrepresentation and using tax-exempt dollars for it's HATE agenda
against the mentally ill and the industries that are actually doing
something better their lives.

Their manner of attacks and goal of destroy the pharmacutical and


psychiatric communities, all under the guise of spiritual need and
religion.

Scientology an enemy of the disabled and those chronically in need of
medical care. Not only do they shun them Scientology and Dianetics


cannot help any one with mental health issues.

Dianetics is not even a science. It's not even modern. If it was, it
would help people with mental illness become free of all the mental
demons the book talks about. And since that fact could cost the church
money, it is a fact they do not want you, the IRS and the FDA to know
about. Instead,they've orchestrated a public scheme to attack those


that ARE doing something to help the mentally ill:

The mental health field and the pharmacutical companies who make
medications, who more often than not help those suffering from mental
illness and related disorders.

You would think that Tom Cruise's apology to Brooke Shields would have
humbled these nimwits at CCHR 'headquarters'.

I am not a proponient of any of these industries but it is ethically
and morally wrong that CCHR and $cientology, acting in collusion, to be
allowed to use tax free $$$$ from supposed
"charitable" contributions to attack the very industries that are
ACTUALLY helping people. I think it a crime. You should too.

Don't be deceived. Give credit where credit is due.
