THE MARKETING OF MADNESS / MAKING A KILLING / DEAD WRONG HOW PSYCHIATRIC DRUGS CAN KILL YOUR CHILD



The Marketing of Madness is the definitive documentary on the psychiatric drugging industry.


Here is the real story of the high income partnership between psychiatry and drug companies that has created an $80 billion psychotropic drug profit centre.


But appearances are deceiving. How valid are psychiatrists’ diagnoses – and how safe are their drugs? Digging deep beneath the corporate veneer, this three-part documentary exposes the truth behind the slick marketing schemes and scientific deceit that conceal dangerous and often deadly sales campaigns.

In this film you’ll discover that many of the drugs side effects may actually make your ‘mental illness’ worse.


Psychiatric drugs can induce aggression or depression.


Some psychotropic drugs prescribed to children are more addictive than cocaine.


Psychiatric diagnoses appears to be based on dubious science. Of the 297 mental disorders contained with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, none can be objectively measured by pathological tests.

Mental illness symptoms within this manual are arbitrarily assigned by a subjective voting system in a psychiatric panel. It is estimated that 100 million people globally use psychotropic drugs.


The Marketing of Madness exposes the real insanity in our psychiatric ‘health care’ system: 

profit-driven drug marketing at the expense of human rights.




This film plunges into an industry corrupted by corporate greed and delivers a shocking warning from courageous experts who value public health over dollar. Documenting the impact of a multibillion dollar psychiatric-pharmaceutical industry, this powerful and graphic video contains interviews with experts, parents and victims.


Dramatic recordings of actual 911 calls made by desperate family members — and even by a killer himself — convey the chilling reality behind today's headlines. Here is the shocking truth underlying the current wave of violence devastating our homes, schools and communities.



Psychiatrists tell us that
the way to fix unwanted behavior is
by altering brain chemistry with a pill.

But unlike a mainstream medical drug like insulin, psychotropic medications have no measurable target illness to correct, and can upset the very delicate balance of chemical processes the body needs to run smoothly.


Nevertheless, psychiatrists and drug companies have used these drugs to create a huge and lucrative market niche. And they've done this by naming more and more unwanted behaviors as "medical disorders" requiring psychiatric medication.


But should these really be called diseases?


Sigmund Freud's early drug marketing efforts helped create a major cocaine epidemic throughout Europe.


Psychiatrists next turned to amphetamines until those drugs were discovered to be not only ineffective, but highly toxic and addictive.


Years later, the world was told that "antidepressant" drugs were actually "lifestyle drugs" for a choose your mood society. Yet within ten years, staggering details of side effects such as violence and suicide could no longer be ignored — with an estimated 3.9 million adverse events on Prozac alone.

Today, the same cycle continues, with breathless news coverage of new chemical treatments promoted as "miracle drugs."


Two questions remain — where is the science that backs psychiatry up?

And how much longer will the public continue to believe false hopes, hype and outright lies?








Child placement agencies, foster parents, RTCs (Residential Treatment Centers) and Therapeutic Foster Homes get paid a certain amount of money each day for taking care of a foster child. The amount of money they get paid depends on a level of care system. The more difficult the child or the more problems that child has, the more money you get.


A child at the basic level of care is worth about 17 dollars a day where as a child in the highest level of care could be worth as much as a 1000 dollars a day. This puts the incentive on diagnosing children with behavior problems to justify raising their level of care. A child on psychiatric drugs is worth more than a child without problems.



It is not uncommon for a foster child to be placed on many different psychotropic drugs at the same time. Some investigations have found children on as many as 13 mind altering drugs prescribed by a psychiatrists at one time.

These drugs include all categories of psychiatric drugs; antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, anxiety medications, anticonvulsants medications, etc.

The SSRI drugs are commons such as Paxil, Zoloft, Prozac, etc. Also a number of these children described taking Risperdal, Zyprexa, Geodon and other new generation antipsychotics which have been linked to weight gain, obesity and diabetes.
