  1. The staggering magnitude of harm, that the “mental health” industries are doing … especially to our children … is horrendous.

    As one who has a really sweet love story in my dreams, that I am not just the “bad,” or good truth telling, mother of my own children … but a truth teller to all of the younger generations.

    Tonight, I took a walk to my local convenience store, to buy stuff I shouldn’t be eating. But it was kind of cute that there were a bunch of high school aged young men, who were playing outside and stopped playing when they saw me … and they led me safely towards my local convince store. So the sweet love story of my dreams seemingly also exists in my waking hours … at least I hope and pray.

    Thank you, Mr. Whitaker, for your continued truth telling … let’s save all the children … from the systemic harms of the scientifically “invalid,” DSM “bible” billing, industries.

  2. Thank you both for another compelling and invaluable Med Free Mental Fitness Podcast.

    If only General Practice/Primary Care Physician training programs utilised such invaluable prescriber-educational-material, there would be so much less drug induced destruction of life’s opportunities.

    It is time that mainstream television companies had the courage to broadcast such vital public health information.
