Every time I see this quote it holds a better truth. Sometimes outrage is the appropriate response to horrible things. Mental drugs are not placebos and often have horrifying side effects and misdiagnosis is very common. Britney Spears was diagnosed as having the dementia of an 80 year old as she did complicated dances and songs. Some teachers of Albert Einstein misdiagnosed him as retarded, but he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in physics. Novartis a pharmaceutical company spent more than “$100 million on lavish meals…to influence doctors to prescribe its drugs” the New York Times recently reported. (“It Paid Doctors Kickbacks. Now, Novartis Will Pay a $678 Million” By Neil Vigdor July 1, 2020) Kickbacks for drugs have caused misdiagnosis for many conditions including mental care. Due to extreme prejudice against women mental misdiagnosis is extremely common when they do not act submissive and obedient to dominating men. When it comes to mental healthcare more is NOT always the better thing to do for care. In my case the state of Virginia is very much so the a-holes.
