Quote from Toxic Psychiatry by Peter R.
Breggin, M.D.
Not only do
psychiatric drugs cause death as in the case of Heath Ledger, BUT these
psychiatric drugs also cause "death by degrees"
by the killing of brain cells or neurons called 'Brain atrophy'.
Our reference to Scientology is a matter of LOGIC: Regardless of the
reason, Scientology is opposed to psychiatric drugs. If Heath
Ledger had been a scientologist, he would not have taken those TOXIC
psychiatric drugs, WHICH CAUSED HIS DEATH. Scientology has no
other relevance to this topic.
Brain Shrinkage from Long-Term
Minor Tranquilizer Use
An even more terrifying specter haunts the long-term use
of minor tranquilizers — the possibility of brain atrophy. Although
rarely mentioned in establishment books or reviews, in their letter to
the editor in the July 1989 Archives of General Psychiatry, Isaac Marks
and his ten colleagues summarize the as yet brief literature: "The
cerebral ventricular enlargement reported in patients with
anxiety/panic disorders who were long-term benzodiazepine users could be
due to the disorder or to other factors rather than to the drugs, but
wisdom advises caution" (p. 669). In fact, the cerebral ventricular
enlargement—the equivalent of atrophy of the brain—is most likely due
to the drugs. C. Schmauss and J-C. Kreig in "Enlargement of
Cerebrospinal Fluid Spaces in Long-Term Benzodiazepine Abusers" in the
1987 Biological Medicine found that "our data suggest that the increase
in the VBRs [ventricular enlargement] is dose-dependent on long-term
BDZ [benzodiazepine] medication" (p. 873).
I mentioned the studies on brain atrophy to one expert who replied that
although he had not heard of them, he was not surprised. "The minor
tranquilizers are like alcohol," he observed, "and alcohol when used
long-term causes brain shrinkage." He asked to remain anonymous for
fear of offending other drug experts.

I am now
improving my health as
best I can, despite the effect of the
permanent damage I have suffered, DUE TO THE
MEDICAL INCOMPETENCE OF OTHERS. I have made big
strides. I have answered two major
questions.
Answering those has lifted TWO
MONKEYS OFF MY BACK.
They are:
1) Discovering that I hae obstructive sleep
apnoea
[OSA]
and that that was
the reason I did not recover from the concussion I suffered in
November, 1967. What caused
all my problems in the four years after I had that concussion was MEDICAL INCOMPETENCE. Not only
was the OSA not diagnosed then, but my non-recovery was MIS-DIAGNOSED
and I
was given more than three year of treatment PERMANENTLY DAMAGING to me,
my brain and my health and ability. Since confirmation of my OSA,
I have now lost substantial
weight
to manage the OSA condition, so I believe I have reduced the
remaining present adverse effect of the OSA. I am sleeping much better
and I am noticing continual improvement in many small but positive
steps. One of the GREATEST
imports, and hence removing one monkey off my back, has been answering
the
uncertainty of the cause way back then: what all those doctors, most
supposedly "specialists" could not. Discovering this has only
been
due to my efforts and my efforts only.
2) The second MONKEY has been seeing that MRI for the
first time, and then viewing
photos of myself, cognizant of that
MRI. It is not that I am "happy" about it, I am not at all, but
then I can do nothing about it. The real benefit to it is
KNOWING. It occurred to me to obtain the MRI only after I had
gained substantial benefit from 1) above. I now realise how
other people have seen me all my life. When I was clean
shaven and as a kid, it was so very obvious. I think to many
people, it was and is just an unconscious reaction; the Yuk
value. I used to wonder the reason I would
receive
mainly negative reactions from other people.
Often people would not even
hear what I said.
Prior to the concussion in 1967, I could use my intelligence to
mitigate the adverse effects of all the bullying, cheating and put
downs that I had to weather. However, post concussion, my
half witted behaviour was consistent with my appearance, and so I
suffered so much more bullying, cheating, insult, humiliation and
ridicule [still
happening at the hands of Hughie my lowlife brother in law], [and
at the hands of the BRISBANE CITY COUNCIL (BCC)], [and
the SUPREME COURT OF QUEENSLAND (SCQ].
I studied for and obtained my LLB, mainly because of the bullying and
illegal treatment
I have suffered, over so much of my life.
I have lost so much over those 40 odd
years, and so have my parents,
despite their and my best offorts. I had never given up.
That is still my nature. I plodded on the best I could,
with all the support of my parents. It has been a most
unpleasant experience for me over these years. The
only way I could do my LLB study for five years was to rise at 3am to
study through to about 7am, seven days per week, even on the coldest
winter mornings. I had to discipline myself to go to bed at 8pm. If I
had known to manage the OSA, things might have been easier. I was
poor so to budget, I would not put on the electric bar heater ever.
I now find myself with four
undergraduate university degrees;
BCom BSc LLB and BA. [ I was fortunately very intelligent,
still now with an IQ, well above, the threshold IQ for
genius. I know I have lost some substantial intellectual
abilities from the medical mistreatment, but I guess I can do nothing
about that. As with the MRI, I guess that it is a matter of the
value of KNOWING.] I have mathematics majors in my BSc and BA, so
I refer to myself as a "mathematiciam with a law degree". I am
now well into my PhD achieving some good progress results.
Obstructive
Sleep Apnoea [OSA] mis-diagnosed as schizophrenia.
I explain this here for the
purpose of putting into perspective,
the bullying and mistreatment I have suffered over the years.
In
2003, I had diagnosed myself as suffering from Obstructive
Sleep Apnoea [OSA]. This was confirmed with a medically
monitored sleep
study. I had suspected that I had been suffering OSA then and
that I had been suffering OSA since
I was about 15 years old. Five days after I completed my Senior
Public Exam at age 17, in 1967, I suffered a concussion. I cannot
remember 10 days after that. I was in hospital for 14 days. In
that time I was overfed in a Queensland Government hospital and
put on 13 kg to about 93kg. This exacerbated my undiagnosed
OSA. [Being ill and not exercising, my weight went to 103kg.] It
was commented on at the time how the volume of my snoring had increased
so much. With OSA, during sleep, one's blood oxygen
concentration drops alarmingly and so one wakes. I did not
appear to recover from my concussion, due to both of the damaging
effects of reduced oxygen damaging my brain and preventing healing of
my brain from the concussion, as well as from reduced and poorer
sleep. Still my OSA went
undiagnosed. In April, 1968 I saw a neurophysican in Brisbane. He
said I would be recovered by the following year. I knew something
was wrong and that they, all the doctors, did not know. I started
to research texts to
learn about the brain. [That was interpreted as a bad symptom.] I
was referred to a psychiatrist, a Dr W. Richards, in 1968. A second
psychiatrist in
about July, 1971 advised that the first psychiatrist's diagnosis of Schizophrenia
was wrong. That, and the
fact that ECT was never indicated, was confirmed by another two
psychiatrists in the following three months. Of course, I
did
not hear voices and I did not have
multiple
personalities. Over three years, Dr Richards made a lot of money from
my parents who were in MBF at the time [I saw the second psychiatrist,
Dr Atkinson, in July 1971, without the knowledge of Dr Richards.
It cost me
nothing to see Dr Atkinson as he was a Dr at the hospital. I saw
him as a result of the research and effort I took to try to discover
what was wrong with me. In my research, I discovered that there
was another psychiatrist in Townsville.] The OSA was still not
diagnosed. [OSA was not
considered much in those days I am told.] In the interim, the
first psychiatrist Dr W Richards, had really stuffed me around so much
more. Not only was this very upsetting for me, but even more so,
it really upset my parents, especially my father. I am
extremely upset at the distress this caused my father.
Not only was there a medical non-diagnosis of the OSA, but I suffered
from a
medical mis-diagnosis of schizopohrenia. [As I said, I
did not hear voices and I did not have multiple personalities.]
[I think people should be quite suspicious of psychiatry as
schizophrenia is not an underlying
condition, but mearly a handle to ascribe to a group of symptoms when
only two of five possible are present.]
So, what treatment did Richards
give me? He prescribed tranquillizers. Every month when I
returned, and the tranquillizers had not worked [surprised?], he would
prescribe different tranquillizers. My
non-existent
Schizophrenia
was very "resistant" to Richards' "treatment". So, he
prescribed many treatments of ECT [electro convulsive therapy -
SHOCK TREATMENT]. Guess whether it
worked? Of course, my symptoms of OSA and residual concussion did
not abate. I was referred to a Dr Steinberg in Brisbane in about
March, 1970. [He is
still in practice in Brisbane, I believe.] I was put into the
Marooma
Private Hospital, [I remember it was in Federation Street, Windsor], in
which, I think, he had a share, for three
months and
given more ECT. That cost
my parents and MBF big dollars
too. I cannot remember much of that time. I believe that
that was
where the majority of the brain damage that I have
suffered occurred. Nursing
sisters recognised that I was
not
sleeping well, [due to OSA], so gave
me
sleeping drafts so I would not
wake up at night. That
would have resulted in the
concencentration of oxygen falling so low as to cause brain
damage. I think many
other people in my situation
may have DIED, from incompetent nurses giving unprescribed "sleeping
drafts". Then of course there would have been 'cover
ups'. How many people
lost
loved ones in hospitals for
unexplained reasons?
If they were also snorers, I
reckon
there would be a high
likelihood
that they were killed by
incompetent nurses.
My OSA was very 'resistant' to
ECT. [ECT is not a known treatment for OSA]. When I
returned to Townsville in about June 1970, Richards kept prescribing
tranquillizers. I started as a clerk in the Queensland
Railway in Townsville in July 1970. I was still very much "spaced
out". I could not stay awake. I used to go to the water
cooler and wash my eyes with cold water to try to keep my eyes
open. I just would not give up. It was a terrible
experience.
It was only after Dr Atkinson took me
off all drugs in about
July, 1971, that I began
to recover, but, of course, the recovery was not complete as I still
had the OSA. My main feeling was joy and gratitude that
there seemed to be some progress. I did not feel recovered but just
better. [ I still believed there was some underlying problem. I
had determined that my brain was not receiving the oxygen it needed, by
considering my symptons. Of course, the doctors reckoned they
knew what was wrong with me so would not waste their time discussing my
ideas] I
was not then angry that I had been so stuffed around, because I still
did not understand everything that has happened. I DO KNOW NOW
AND NOW I AM FURIOUS AT ALL THE
WAYS I HAVE BEEN STUFFED ABOUT, INJURED AND DAMAGED AND MISTREATED BY
SO MANY PEOPLE, AND
WHERE IT IS STILL CONTINUING. I HAVE LOST SO MUCH OF
MORE THAN
HALF MY LIFE, AND SUFFERED PERMANENT DAMAGE WITH WHICH I MUST
NOW LIVE, BY THE
INCOMPETENCE AND MALEOVALENCE OF OTHERS. I
intend to work on the more recent incidents and work back from there.
I
think there must be many cases where
people with OSA, who have been
hospitalised have been KILLED in hospital. I'll
explain.
Nursing sisters would see that when I was in hospital I was waking
often at night. I remember that so often I was given these foul
tasting sleeping drafts, "so you will sleep better". I did not
ask for it and I did not want it, but it was forced on me. The
doctors had not prescribed them. These nursing sisters had
intended that I should not wake during the night. Unfortunately
for me, THAT, WAKING, WAS THE WAY I STAYED ALIVE, and the way
anyone with OSA stays alive. In my case I was fortunate in that I
had extremely good aerobic fitness with a resting pulse of 33, due to
the running I had done over a number of years and then bike racing
training on a heavy fat tyred bicycle up to the time I was about 15 or
16. I think that for other people who
did not have my
aerobic strength and fitness, they may have died from their "sleeping
draft" as their oxygen concentration in their blood dropped too
low. I think in my
case that has been responsible
for much
of the brain damage and brain atrophy that I have suffered. CT
scans of my brain have shown for some time now that I have what is
termed "clinically significant atrophy". Anyone who can read MRIs
could possibly see that in my MRI logo.
People who have sleep Apnoea are more
likely to have a whole host of
accidents and end up in hospital. I reckon there must be
many people in our community who have had a loved one die in hospital
after an accident when they seemed to be recovering well.
If that person also snored quite loudly, I reckon that there is a high
probability that the loved one had OSA and was "poisoned" with a
sleeping draft by the hospital. This would be less likely in
recent years when there has been a greater awareness of OSA.
Additionally, I suspect that just
as my OSA was "diagnosed" as schizophrenia, there must be many other
people with OSA who have been diagnosed as schizophrenic, and put on
tranquilizer drugs. If those people did not
persist to find the cause of their predicament, like I have done, then
they are likely now to be down and out, if not dead.
