I HATE TO JUST 'LIFT' AND POST BUT ...

I also hate to be gone so long from my blogsite HERE -- due to time constraints, AND fact that I found this info impressive and tho't it might be of interest (or helpful), it passes for my post this week.  May be hype (and I hate to promo an advertisement, per se) but also maybe HOPE for the OVERLY DRUGGED:

A Letter from Mark Hyman, M.D.

The most important medical discovery of our lifetime is also the biggest secret.
This secret reveals the REAL reasons we are sick and why we suffer from an epidemic of brain problems, everything from depression to dementia, from anxiety to autism, from memory problems to mood swings and from brain fog to trouble concentrating. In fact, we’re in the middle of the greatest medical revolution of the last 100 years – it’s the medical equivalent to Columbus saying the world was round, not flat.

And this revolution shows us that there IS hope.

     Hope for our children with ADD, autism and Asperger’s, who have problems concentrating, staying focused, and controlling their behaviors...    
     Hope for our aging parents, who are suffering from dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and whose lives are quietly slipping away...
     Hope for those of us who suffer from depression, anxiety and brain fog and have problems remembering things and dealing with stress and mood swings.

What if you were told that the way you think about disease, mental illness and your brain aging actually has NOTHING to do with how your body actually works?

The secret you’re about to learn is this...

Your mood and memory problems, your trouble focusing, your ADD and depression are NOT all in your head.

They’re in your BODY.

Over 20 million people are suffering from some form of depression, 40 million are tormented by irrational fears, anxiety or unceasing stress that won't go away.

20 million children are diagnosed with some type of psychiatric disorder—1 in 166 today children are diagnosed with autism. Estimates show that by 2050 1 in 2 adults will suffer with Alzheimer's.

What's wrong? Are we all somehow genetically defective?

Of course not...

People with these “brain disorders” don’t’ need more and better medication. They need a system that will help them change their lives so they can heal the underlying causes of their problems. They need a comprehensive, personalized approach to healing their body.

Heal the body and you automatically heal the brain.

That’s what you will learn to do in my program:

PS - One of the remarkable things I've found over the years is how many patients see "side effects" after balancing their underlying biology.

You'll see that many the people in these case studies experienced "side effects" such weight loss, improved skin and complexion and more energy in addition to faster thinking speed, more energy and better sleep.

IT JUST GETS WEIRDER AND WILDER ~!

From Natural News ~!

Dear NaturalNews readers,

If you ever had any doubt that the medical police state has descended upon us, look no further than what just happened in Detroit to an African-American mother of a 13-year-old daughter:
For refusing to medicate her daughter with dangerous psychiatric drugs, she was subjected to an attempting kidnapping by CPS, then her front door was broken down by armed police, then a SWAT team beseiged her house for 12 hours with semiautomatic weapons, and now she faces multiple felony charges.
What was her crime? Not giving her child psychiatric drugs!
The medical police state is angry at parents who refuse to drug their children. Get the facts in my coverage of this breaking news:

URGENT PETITION DRIVE ~!

     Since the Texas lege has designs on "economizing"  (just wait til i do MY essay -- and letters to the editors on just WHAT you get for $350,000.00 for 4 years "care" - sic -- in the HCS program -- NOT much unless you think destruction of your health, liver, kidneys, brain and teeth is a 'good thing' ~!) -- anyway, I decided to commence a polite petition drive to urge the Senate Finance Committee, et al, to NOT be so brutal with cuts to funding for the HCS program.
   While it would benefit from a GREAT DEAL more oversight and accountability, it's still the best we have to offer in Texas, for the time being -- and I don't want people who are challenged and NEED 24-hour care and deserve a DECENT place to call their "home", turned out on the streets, jammed up in state-run institutions (at three times the cost and NO privacy), or hospitalized unnecessarily, or worse, jailed ~!
     So, while this entry strays somewhat from drugging the disabled, it's very current and relevant -- IF so much money wasn't put down the throats of the disabled -- a good $1,000.00 in one case I'm familiar with, then there just MIGHT be more money in Medicaid and the HCS program in general ~!
     I urge anyone to copy and past my Petition form, off the "Take Action" page, adapt it as you wish, GET SIGNATURES (I got over a dozen in 45 minutes), then send it to The Hon. Steve Ogden, Chair of the Senate Finance Committee, PO Box 12068, Capitol Station, Austin, TX 78711 as soon as possible.
     This budget MAY not be finalized until sometime in May, and IF not agreed upon by both houses, there could be a special session of the lege called this summer.

Doesn't this violate the 1st Amendment -- Freedom of Speech ???

I've been away for a while -- lawyer-shopping, learning facebook, fighting the good fight and getting spring gardening work done.  Hope to be back here more often, now.

Just for grins, I started keeping my little "free" copy of the U.S. Constitution handy a coupla years ago -- AND I find myself re-reading it often -- now THAT's not been an item of interest to me in around four decades~!  But it is NOW -- and it's something that more bureaucraps, Judges and lawyers should refer to -- more often than I do, since they seem to act with impunity in making up their OWN laws as they go along ~!

(NaturalNews) Many prominent organizations and agencies like the FDA release information with an embargo on it. In other words, news organizations will agree not to publish this information until a certain date. This gives the journalists time to research and write their articles, so that their more detailed investigation - often a deeper perspective on a complex story - can appear at the same time as the organization's press conference.

So the FDA's new policy goes like this; you can write about FDA's new drug/medical device approval, but you can't do any outside research or ask any experts to weigh in on our decision before the embargo is lifted. The FDA wants to forbid reporters from doing any independent research and gathering opposing views. Effectively, the FDA wants journalists to not ask questions, not to seek independent experts and simply tow the FDA line like good little stenographers.
This is a drastic change - journalists customarily share the information with other experts in the field to get a more impartial perspective. These experts are are always apprised of the embargo, must agree to its terms, and fall under the same confidentiality agreement as the media organization.

In response to the FDA's statement, the nonprofit Association of Health Care Journalists (AHCJ) - the nation's largest group of health reporters - sent a strongly worded letter to the FDA, objecting to the administration's "highly unusual" new policy: "[This] restriction...rewrote a longstanding compact between reporters and various public and scientific organizations. It also hampered or delayed reporters' ability to fully inform the public about what the FDA is doing with taxpayers' money."

The group continued, "Reporters who want to be competitive on a story will essentially have to agree to write only what the FDA wants to tell the world, without analysis or outside commentary."

DISABLED, YOUNG CHILDREN AND POLITICIANS NOT IMMUNE...

     It would seem that NO ONE is "immune" from aberrant effects of psychotropic DRUGS, legally (sic) prescribed~! 

Congressman Wu's bizarre behavior due to psychiatric drugs?

by Ethan A. Huff, staff writer (originally published Mar. 2, 2011)

     (NaturalNews) In a tale that many mainstream media outlets are attempting to use as a political smear campaign, the story of US Rep. David Wu's severe negative reaction to a common psychiatric drug speaks more about the dangers of pharmaceutical drugs than it does partisan politics. According to reports, Wu was hospitalized in 2008 for severe reactions to an unnamed psychiatric drug which caused him to display erratic and strange behavior, including the sending of personal photos of himself in a tiger costume to his staffers.
     Though Wu denies that the photo incident -- which took place two years after his hospitalization in 2008 -- is directly connected to the psychiatric drug, such behavior suggests at least a possible connection. Other odd behavioral events include excessive bouts of severe anger, demonstrations of impatience for no apparent reason, and even episodes where Wu disappeared and nobody was able to find him.

SEE HORROR STORY POSTING ~!

     Just posted on the page for "Horror Stories" -- a very long but informative history on the drugging of our children in america and story of some activist moms who would NOT sit down and shut up ~!  We HAVE a "drug problem" in this country, but it's NOT confined to the Mexican drug cartels~!
     And, we have an epidemic running through our nation -- the rampant greed of drug companies is surpassed only by the wide-spread ignorance, apathy, and lack of compassion and common sense.  While my primary concern IS the over-drugging of our disabled population, this cannot be separated from the (mandatory) drugging of CHILDREN ~!

BIG PHARMA BLUNDERS AGAIN ~!

     (NaturalNews) They survived live fire, explosive devices, terror attacks and grueling desert conditions. But upon returning home to seek treatment for the mental anguish that too often accompanies war, U.S. soldiers are now being killed by the pharmaceutical industry in record numbers ~!

     A recent example is found with the late Senior Airman Anthony Mena, who returned home from Baghdad only to be killed by a toxic cocktail of prescription medications in his apartment in the USA. As the New York Times reports, a toxicologist found eight prescription medications in his blood (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/13/u...).

     In his last months alive, Senior Airman Anthony Mena rarely left home without a backpack filled with medications. Airman Mena died instead in his Albuquerque apartment, on July 21, 2009, five months after leaving the Air Force on a medical discharge. A toxicologist found eight prescription medications in his blood, including three antidepressants, a sedative, a sleeping pill and two potent painkillers.

     Yet his death was no suicide, the medical examiner concluded. What killed Airman Mena was not an overdose of any one drug, but the interaction of many. He was 23.

     After a decade of treating thousands of wounded troops, the military’s medical system is awash in prescription drugs — and the results have sometimes been deadly.

     “I’m not a doctor, but there is something inside that tells me the fewer of these things we prescribe, the better off we’ll be,” Gen. Peter W. Chiarelli, the vice chief of staff of the Army who has led efforts on suicide, said in an interview.

     Re: one Marine, who was prescribed at least five medications, including the antidepressants Prozac and Trazodone, and an anti-anxiety medication. Yet he continued to have headaches, anxiety and vivid nightmares.  “He would be hitting the headboard,” said his father, Charles. “He would be saying: ‘Get down! Here they come!’ ”  On Jan. 29, 2008, Corporal Endicott was found dead in his room at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., where he had checked himself in for anger management after another car accident. He was 26.
   I had a PERSONAL EXPERIENCE in my family -- a close cousin, like a kid brother, did NOT do well in Viet Nam, came home to hide out in dempsty dumpsters, aiming an imaginary AK-47 in the middle of the night.  His parents had him to three different VA hospitals.  He seemed to get better, got married, had two kids, a nice home and good job.  And stashed all his pills, took them one weekend in Nov., 1982, and was taken off life support three days later.

     He HAD gone to his psychiatrist, who dismissed his concerns, saying "You'll snap out of it Joel, you always do".
