CrackBerry BlackBerry, Ipod, Iphone, cell phone, the answering machine, Playstations, Nintendo, videos and more. There are enough high tech devices to keep the world busy for a while. How was life before the invention of technology in the stone age when sitting around the fire was considered a form of entertainment. Life is now the ten second attention span and information overload with technology speeding up the pace of life. And so CNN had an article on its website the other day titled "Are gadgets, and the Internet, actually addictive?" It seems like the American Psychiatric Association war industry is looking for another population of people to pimp with its targeted diagnosis and pharmaceutical drugging campaigns. Even the animals are being diagnosed as depressed and are no longer immune from the pharmaceutical drug industry these days. As I have mentioned in earlier posts, I am AMA and APA, Anti Medical Model Association, Anti Psychiatric, psych-cia-trick Association and anti mental health death system. Abolish forced psychiatric treatment. Psychiatry Kills and psychiatrists are mass murders in white coats as psychiatric genocide originated in Nazi Germany. And so the CNN article goes on to say that at its annual conference, the APA and the AMA are now considering adding the label of technology addiction, the diagnosis of the digital world and its high tech gadgets and Internet addiction to its DSMIII manual and drug everyone who is addicted to the Internet. And therapists, the-rapists are waiting.
The following is a Declaration of Principals that was adopted at the Tenth Annual International Conference on Human Rights and Psychiatric oppression, held in Toronto Canada in 1982. The following is an excerpt from 30 principals.
1. We oppose involuntary psychiatric intervention including civil commitment and the administration of psychiatric procedures "treatments" by force of coercion or without informed consent.
4. We oppose forced psychiatric procedures such as drugging, electroshock, psychosurgery, restraints, solitary confinement and "aversive behavior modification".
5. We oppose forced psychiatric procedures because they humiliate, debilitate, injure, incapacitate and kill people.
6. We oppose forced psychiatric procedures because they are at best quackery and permanent harm to the total being of people subjected to them.
And the list goes on and on...........
And #18. We oppose the use of psychiatric terms because they substitute jargon for plain English and are fundamentally stigmatizing, demeaning, unscientific, mystifying and superstitious. Examples:
Plain English and Psychiatric Jargon
Psychiatric inmate........................Mental patient
Psychiatric institution...................Mental hospital/mental health center
Psychiatric system........................Mental health system
Psychiatric procedure.....................Treatment/therapy
Personal or social difficulties in living.....Mental illness
Socially undesirable characteristic or trait..Symptom

No one is free when others are oppressed. Freedom for all. Is another world possible? And what does this have to do with a No Police State? Mind Freedom.
