What does /sci/ think about psychiatry?

Is it ethical to lock people up and drug them against their will?

>> No.12654875

>>12653059
it's for their own benefit even if it's detrimental because the system has been sold out

it's difficult getting traction on this topic without degenerating into schizos and "take your meds" being shilled back and forth

the movement needs someone high profile to complain but abuse dynamics dictates that wont happen

>> No.12655342

Yes, it is ethical, because some people are either a danger to themselves or others if left unsupervised.

What, you think any organ in the human body can malfunction, but not the brain?

No u, shitting up the common goods is also against somebodies will if you argue like this. If the person isn't a danger to himself, to others or makes his surroundings worse by, for example, ranting to himself or being a dirty hobo, he is going to be left alone.
Prove: Ain't nobody bothers to give people a second look on the street unless something sticks out.

>>12655488
Nobody that doesn't stick out negatively is getting medicated. For the simple reason that medical professionals and capacity of mental health care facilitirs are a limited commodity.

And yes, society as a whole has the right to determine what somebodies quality of life should be like. We set minimal standards for child welfare, for example and do remove children forcefully from their parents, against both parties will.

When they are a danger for themselves or others, yes.

>What of forcing medications on someone that has demonstrated no threat to himself or others?

That doesn't happen. Letting yourself waste away alone in a mountain of garbage and not wanting to do anything to get better like taking a medication is a definition of being a danger for oneself.
People in those kind of situations are generally overwhelmed by their delusions and/or hallucinations. They wouldn't be like that otherwise. They are suffering but their symptoms prevent them to seek help.

they should euthanize us all en masse. us and the schizos. instead of doing what they do now which is load us up with mind numbing medication that have so many side effects people stop them knowing full well they’ll eventually turn into rambling lunatics again. and no matter what bullshit they feed you about becoming “functional” again - top kek. you’re never gonna get a real job. nothing beyond part time minimum wage gigs. and even that is too much for most of us. and the social problems. don’t even get me started on them. the moment normies catch so much of a whiff you having mental problems they nope the fuck away from you fast and make it clear in no uncertain terms just how much of a subhuman they consider you

where am I going with this. idk. but it’s the truth. having a brain defect of this caliber is no fucking joke. psychiatrists only exist to numb us with enough meds to prevent us from stabbing random people in the street during a psychotic break. but it’s not good enough. we should all just be euthanized and psychiatry should be abandoned in its entirety.

Well, I will now prove you a liar since there is testimony from various different individuals across the last several threads. Including an officer discuss how patients are used as cattle.

Previous threads:

>>12610257
>>12625362
>>12623523

The people defending psychiatry rely entirely on dishonesty and misrepresentation. That's if they are even capable of getting past mere insults. Here we see testimony from numerous perspectives of the harm caused by psychiatrists, some testimony even coming from people currently being helped by one of the few competent psychiatrists in the world.

This is not surprising to me. The psychiatrist I had lied pretty constantly about the smallest of things. For example she even lied about what she had put on her petition, of course she declined to have me go and retrieve it for proof. These people are not interested in truth or helping people, merely maintaining their power.

Psychiatry should be abolished and replaced with good doctors, better societies and wise philosophers. We live in a very dysfunctional low-trust world and we shouldn't be shocked that it produces damaged & confused people. Putting every malcontent on soma so they can tolerate it, is a sign how evil the world has become and enables further abuses without serious change. Many people would rather feel dishonestly about the world than to have normal reactions to bad things.

Psychiatry votes on what is considered an illness and there's little international agreement, all these 'illnesses' are based on personality tests, race, gender and their class according to their assumed social role.
The vast majority of the meds do not work without the psychosomatic factor. It's mercury tonics and lead elixirs all over again.
They want treatment instead of cures, they do not want to heal anyone but keep them forever within the system. Often destroying people so they're thrown away, treated as little more than a demographic liability.

The only reason psychiatry exists is because the government pays them to exist as a paralegal system to skirt around human rights and to silence malcontents to maintain the illusion of stability in an nuclear world.
Having government shamans would probably be equally as effective, even more so since they aim to cure and are more honest with their methods rather than some cult of positivist partisans.

False, I was forcibly medicated just based on a number of eccentric habits. The psychiatrist did not like the fact I slept 6 hrs a night (bipolar 1 was her diagnosis) and even used the fact I was doing meditation in lotus on the floor in my room in court. This was all because I pushed an assailant away from me when I was cornered and a career nurse signed a petition against me claiming I was the aggressor. As I said, you lie.

No, it hasn't. There have been multiple Anons telling you why that happens only very rarely. It still leaves the people that do genuinely need help, yet don't seek it due to their mental illness. They exist.

i do not deny schizophrenia is not in the homeless population but i do question since sleeping conditions are not ideal and it could be these symptoms of sleep deprivation are just mimicking schizophrenia. psych quacks pick up on it and start using the homeless to test their lobotomy pills on them

Psychiatrists should be (re)circumcised, then clamped until their brain function has diminished to where they can't scheme and project sufficient to take out their terror of their own inner demons on other people. The purpose of the (re)circumcision and (re)clamping is thus to amplify that desire to harm others, but render them too impotent to carry it out.

>"Drapetomania" was a supposed mental illness described by American physician Samuel A. Cartwright in 1851 that caused black slaves to flee captivity.[52]:41
>In addition to inventing drapetomania, Cartwright prescribed a remedy. His feeling was that with "proper medical advice, strictly followed, this troublesome practice that many Negroes have of running away can be almost entirely prevented."[53]
In the case of slaves "sulky and dissatisfied without cause"—a warning sign of imminent flight—Cartwright prescribed "whipping the devil out of them" as a "preventative measure".[54][55][56] As a remedy for this disease, doctors also made running a physical impossibility by prescribing the removal of both big toes.[52]:42 Cartwright also proposed "dysaesthesia aethiopica" as a mental illness that caused laziness among slaves.

>In 1972, psychologist David Rosenhan published the Rosenhan experiment, a study questioning the validity of psychiatric diagnoses.[65]
>The study arranged for eight individuals with no history of psychopathology to attempt admission into psychiatric hospitals. The individuals included a graduate student, psychologists, an artist, a housewife, and two physicians, including one psychiatrist.
All eight individuals were admitted with a diagnosis of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Psychiatrists then attempted to treat the individuals using psychiatric medication.
>All eight were discharged within 7 to 52 days. In a later part of the study, psychiatric staff were warned that pseudo-patients might be sent to their institutions, but none were actually sent. Nevertheless, a total of 83 patients out of 193 were believed by at least one staff member to be actors.
The study concluded that individuals without mental disorders were indistinguishable from those suffering from mental disorders.

>What does /sci/ think about psychiatry?
It depends. I'll give an example. If I asked everyone "what do you think about medicine?". Modern medicine, as I learned at university, is called "evidence-based medicine". Consequently, some things that most americans would say is not medicine is actually medicine, and something things that a minority of people would say is medicine is actually not medicine (such as homeopathy).
When you ask about psychiatry it is my view that you are asking about psychiatry in general, as opposed to evidence based psychiatry which uses the scientific method to establish the effectiveness of different talking therapies versus chemical therapies versus transcranial magnetic stimulation vs etc etc etc.
The part of psychiatry that falls outside of evidence based medicine I consider trash, such as hypnotherapy (which in the studies I have seen performs no better than placebo). The psychiatry (which falls within evidence based medicine) I consider legit; for example [anti-depressants] vs [antidepressants+cognitive behavioural therapy], where antidepressants+CBT is more effective than antidepressants alone.
>Is it ethical to lock people up and drug them against their will?
It depends on the circumstances. People are generally only "locked up" or sectioned when they are a danger to themselves or to others.
I think people have a right to die by physician-assisted suicide. If someone wants to kill themselves, and they are not suffering from an evidence-based condition, then I think they should be allowed to have physician assisted suicide.
Say they are bipolar, and when they are not manic or depressed they state that they want to be sectioned (kept in a hospital) when they are suicidal. Is it ethical to allow them to suicide when they are suicidal? Arguably not. So it's not a clear cut case, and I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about it. I'm mostly just typing up what I recall from my studies, and my own opinions.

The other situation is when they are a danger to others.
If we assume that a person is not a danger to themselves, but is a danger to others, then arguably it is ethical to isolate them. Though I would argue that the conditions they are isolated in should be much better. One piece of fiction I read had a piece of land (probably the size of a US state) where people could be sent if they were deemed a hazard to society. They could set up their own society there if they so wanted. And if the person didn't want to be there, then they would have to consent to therapy; which in this book was a future advancement that was 100% successful in altering a persons brain/mind.
In this case, it answers your ethical question about treating them against their will. My opinion is that we force treatment on people because it is more economical to do so. Or rather, it is the equilibrium point between ethics and economics. Should we do everything we can to treat an individual called "John" who wants treatment? Arguably yes. Should we do it if it costs half the global GDP every year just to offer the best treatment to John? Arguably no.

Plenty of stories of teenage girls being belt restrained for 40+ hours in nothing but paper gowns alone in a room where the light is never turned off with a camera on them, force fed on schedule, peeing/defecating into trays which male nurses/techs would hold between their legs.
All this could have started because the girl felt a little traumatised from being bullied at school and had cut herself a little. I'm sure the psychiatric stay must have healed her.

One of the classes I had was on the topic of borderline personality disorder. Patients with the condition often cut. The hypothesis is that it causes endorphine release that comforts them. There is no real treatment for borderline personality disorder, the current best practice is lamatrogine, which does no better than placebo, but the placebo effect is better than no treatment.
The discussion was on the relative merits of letting a patient cut when it is effective, versus sectioning for self harm. I dont recall anyone who thought it clearly merited sectioning, or anyone who thought it clearly merited letting them cut. My impression (from what I can recall) is that we all thought the situation was fucked, but that either option was roughly equivalent in benefit/cost and so letting them cut is their decision and so is the correct option.

I can tell you, of any field psychology was the greatest offender of p-hacking.
Psychology is the greatest offender in the ongoing replication crisis, closely followed by medicine (so basically psychiatry).
The model hacking crisis has barely begun but medicine sticks out like a sore thumb.
Psychology shouldn't even be called a science and parts of medicine shouldn't either (including psychiatry). Both rely so heavily on epidemiology which has been proven to be weak.

This is why the best standard of work is to do meta-analyses and look at tree plots for publication bias. And why there is a push for registering all your experimental plans before performing the experiment, and then publishing all the data and every result, even if it is negative.
Again, it is better to perform medical work with research that is largely "true" (ie has passed replication and meta analysis) than to perform medicine based on pseudoscience.

Section is the informal term. Its used because it has 2 syllables instead of involuntary commitment (8 syllables), civil commitment (5 syllables), or involuntary hospitalization (11 syllables).

Fortunately there are some well respected researchers who are pushing for this kind of change. iirc there was some nobel winner who now only publishes in open access journals, a kind of rebellion against paywalls and all that bullshit.
It seems also that more scientists are pushing for preregistering studies
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/09/more-and-more-scientists-are-preregistering-their-studies-should-you
The other things that need to be done are to reduce incentives to publish garbage low-quality studies or p-hack. The first by reducing publish-or-perish culture, the second by pre-registration, and in total a more strict peer review process.
At least at the universities i went to, this was a subject matter that was discussed and lectures and talks were given on it. Really it needs more time for the changes to occur, greater activism and spreading of information. Change doesn't happen over night, and there is a lot of cause for optimism that scientific research will improve; especially given how much money was lost due to the covid pandemic, and how much better things could have been with better a better science sector and more science funding.

I'm not an amerimeme. All of our lectures were given by researchers or clinicians, depending on what the lecture was on.
Maybe that's how it is in american universities, I wouldn't know.
I don't recall any imbalance dogmas when I was studying. It was mostly stuff like alleles for different receptors correlate with higher risk of ADHD, binding of radioligands for PET indicate reduced receptor binding by neurotransmitters, and so on. If i remember correctly, you can do a radio-raclopride binding PET with and without a drug which stimulates dopamine release, and/or maybe a drug which inhibits release. Then you measure radioligand binding in normal/inhibited/stimulated dopamine states, then do a ratio to determine the difference. So when raclopride binds a dopamine receptor when dopamine release is inhibited, we get a map of all the dopamine receptors. Then after raclopride has washed out we stimulate dopamine release, administer raclopride, and compare the PET scans. In some mental illnesses we find radioligand binding doesn't decrease much compared to controls, supporting the hypothesis that dopamine levels are low.
It may be that you're looking too much at the trash side of psych research, which I personally avoid. I stick largely to neuropsych, when I bother with psych at all. It's pretty boring in a lot of cases desu

What do you mean?
If you mean how in general mental illness was defined and then we get neuropsych?
Generally we only call things which cause a person suffering or discomfort a disease or a disorder. This is part of why some autism-spectrum individuals are arguing that it's not necessarily a disorder, but rather an atypicality.
I think you'd be hard pressed to find someone who fits the diagnostic criteria for OCD, schizophrenia, depression, tourettes, bipolar, etc and doesn't find themselves suffering. Whereas things like synesthesia, aphantasia, hyperthymesia, etc aren't considered disorders since people don't really suffer due to them. That's part of why, to involuntarily hospitalise someone, you need to be able to prove they lack capacity to make decisions. That's why the borderline personality cutters aren't sectioned, because they dont lack capacity, whereas most severe schizophrenics do.

I don't know if i answered your question.

Also with regards to correlation and causation, as our tech improves we can get very precise causal relationships. Like stopping a certain brain area from functioning using transcranial magnetic stimulation can stop the symptoms

Let me reiterate then. Psychiatrists are specialists who have privileges under the law to treat those afflicted with mental health issues. Since severe cases exist that need help to not be a danger to themselves or others, emergency powers need to be granted someone by society to deal with these people. Since a lot of the severe cases are also unwilling to seek treatment -often caused by their illness-, treatment has to happen without consent in these cases.
This is functionally no different to the police having certain powers vested into them to fulfill their function.

What you don't seem to realise is that that can be applied to anybody for anything. I'm telling you right now that you need to be belt restrained for 48 hours and have electroshock therapy.

My guess from having engaged in these threads is that he is a psychiatrist being dishonest about his vocation. My reasoning here is the fact he is so invested in the topic, far more than any bystander would be.

I have not spread any lies. The hospitals I went to really did deny me my legal rights ( to see the petition within a timely manner, when I asked) and my public defender made it clear that they did this regularly.

It seems like you've had a bad experience with a schizophrenic who did need help. Stalking is a crime that she could be removed from society for that nobody in these threads has argued against.

Many of us have faced abuse at the hands of people who are comfortable abusing their authority and operate in a culture that sees patients as cattle to be milked for profit. Aside from the the psychiatrist(s) most of the hospital staff was nice. Despite the fact that I still don't believe my hospitalization was necessary, the art therapy was still quite helpful. I hadn't done artwork since adolescence and doing it as an adult was...incredibly rewarding.

That said, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is more relevant than ever. Several nurses did what they could to play power games. The fact the psychiatrist wrote a prescription for every single patient she saw and would use legal force to medicate someone, even going so far as to block the other staff's notes from being entered into the hearing (because it did not agree with her evaluation) shows what happens on a daily basis. Many people just need someone to give them solid life advice. A script actually interferes with that.

The rate of mental health issues amongst the homeless is pretty high. On one hand, living on the streets is not a healthy environment. On the other hand, if you suffer from mental issues that impede your daily life, you are quite likely to end up on the streets.

>You tell them to stop and remind them of the consequences if they follow through.
Threats are frequently neutralized before they become an actual issue. That's true i law enforcement, fire fighting and health care. Btw, if they were rational they'd already know the consequences of their actions.

>You persecute them for assault or property damage.
Great, now a crazy person with a lot of mental issues is in prison. An environemnt that's full of threats, potential abusers and sorely lacking in treatment.

>Just ask and fix.
Naive. Are you disputing that some mental health issues make a person unwilling to seek treatment or accept help solving their issues? In severe cases, their issues might be auditory or visual halluzinations. Hard to just deal with that without help.

>hunter gatherers
Were not dirty or without self care as otherwise they'd get infections and die.

So in summary, your solution is fuck all and prison time. Yeah, that would have made the issues the people I've made suffered from far worse.
Your suggestions only make sense if mental health issues don't exist and these people could just be normal if they wanted to.

You can't just go about ascribing irrationality to people.

>Great, now a crazy person with a lot of mental issues is in prison.
You know usually you ask people why they do what they did and if it's a mental reason you be aware of that and see what you can do.

>Are you disputing that some mental health issues make a person unwilling to seek treatment or accept help solving their issues?
Yes I am because the risk of you "treating" someone for the wrong issue or no issue at all is far greater.
Look you can't help someone or know what they need help with if they don't want your help.

>In severe cases, their issues might be auditory or visual halluzinations.
Yeah, but you don't know if a bum covered in shit is schizo. You find out, could be a million other reasons why.

>Hard to just deal with that without help.
Schizos can seek help and would if they weren't mistreated so often by those deemed to have the monopoly to do so (p$ychiatry).

>Were not dirty or without self care as otherwise they'd get infections and die.
What is dirty then?

Fucking stop yourself from making such conclusions.

You're stupid mate, no other way to say it. We are specifically talking about those with mental health issues and all you csn come up with is that maybe they aren't irrational.
Look, we can help some people that don't want help, even if most of that help is convincing them to seek help. You thinking otherwise shows that you know very little about these issues.

>Yeah, but you don't know if a bum covered in shit is schizo. You find out, could be a million other reasons why.
Like some kind of meeting with some type of person that specializes in assessing and treating these issues? Yeah...

No you're retarded and still haven't acknowledged or refuted the slippery slope of "help" by force "I think he has a mental illness and he doesn't want my help. His mental illness is worse than I thought!

Every refutation you either ignore or appeal to some fallacy.

Is it really worth helping some people who don't want help when you're damaging so many more by trying?

Look you've multiple times been found out as retarded.

>Like some kind of meeting with some type of person that specializes in assessing and treating these issues? Yeah...
You don't need to be a special person to talk to people.

Yeah, you refuse to believe in mental health issues, that's abundantly clear. If all it took was a normal talk, these people wouldn't be in so much shit.

Again, I have seen and talked to people suffering from auditory and visual hallucinations. Those hallucinations felt real to them. That's not solveable by having a simple chat.
I'm not even taking the psychiatrists at their word here. It's my ownxexperience, that you can corroborate via videl accounts of psychiatrists and people afflicted by these issues.
So my refusal to engage your points is you not believing a part of reality exists.

>damaging so much more by helping

No I don't, I question your ability to diagnose and treat it. It's noble to help people but you're often doing more harm than good.

>If all it took was a normal talk, these people wouldn't be in so much shit.
You talk with them and then you go from there.

>Again, I have seen and talked to people suffering from auditory and visual hallucinations. Those hallucinations felt real to them.
Same, I know.

>That's not solveable by having a simple chat.
From that you figure out what causes, what makes it worse, what can make it better for them. You suggest options and you inform of the potential gains and the potential costs. You don't force pills down someone's throat and forget to mention the side effects.

>Provide an actual source or you're just a paranoid asshole that needs to take his pills.
You know you could just read some anti-psychiatry and get a science degree. Go read the faggot Foucault or since you're probably a reddit fag here is what comes up when you search for anti-psychiatry: https://www.reddit.com/r/Antipsychiatry/

If a simple talk would be enough, these people wouldn't be suffering so much from their issues. Cry as much as you want, specialists are needed to treat these complicated issues. How do you figure a talk would help them when they hallucinate?

>You talk with them and then you go from there.
>From that you figure out what causes, what makes it worse, what can make it better for them. You suggest options and you inform of the potential gains and the potential costs.
Very naive, these people, especially during an episode are impaired in their ability to make rational decisions. Talking to them and informing them is well and good, but their decision making should not be relied upon.
If they don't want to be in a situation of forced hospitalisation, the only way for them is to be proactive about their issues, practice mental hygiene and keep their prescriptions fresh and seek professional help.
