Report Psychiatric Abuse. It's a Crime.

Vulnerable people who have sought help from psychiatrists and psychologists have been falsely diagnosed and forced to undergo unwanted and often harmful psychiatric methods. Thousands upon thousands have died. CCHR is investigating these and other psychiatric abuses. We can assist you with your evidence and reports of criminal psychiatric practice.

Parents and Grandparents

Have you ever been forced to take your child or grandchild to see a psychiatrist or psychologist, or been threatened if you did not want to?

Has your child or grandchild suffered severe side effects from psychiatric treatment? (Like the boy put on psychotropic drugs who then lost his appetite, suffered headaches, tired easily and pleaded with his mother, “Do I have to take this drug, Mom? I’m smart enough on my own!”)

Have you seen your child or grandchild worsen under psychiatric treatment, or suffer real harm or even death?

Psychiatry can destroy a child’s education, life and future. If you have witnessed or experienced this, you are not alone. Through psychiatry’s false explanations, easy-seizure (commitment) laws and depersonalizing “treatments,” thousands across the globe unwittingly fall into psychiatry’s coercive system every day.

If your child or a child you know has been victimized by false psychiatric diagnoses such as “attention deficit disorder” and then forced to undergo harmful or degrading psychiatric treatment by a psychiatrist, psychologist or other mental health practitioner, CCHR is willing to listen and assist you.

To protect yourself and those you love from criminal psychiatric abuse, the abuses must be reported to proper law enforcement agencies so effective action can be taken.

Family Members and Friends

Have you personally ever been abused or harmed by psychiatric or other “mental health” treatments?

Have you watched a family member, friend or loved one rapidly worsen—or even die—under psychiatric treatment?

Have you tried to tell a psychiatrist or psychiatric facility staff about the suspicious death of a loved one who was under psychiatric care, and been ignored, ridiculed or threatened for it?

If so, you are not alone. Through psychiatry’s false explanations, easy-seizure (commitment) laws, and depersonalizing “treatments,” every day thousands across the globe unwittingly fall into psychiatry’s coercive system.

If you have been subjected to or are aware of abuse, sexual assault, crime or malpractice committed by a psychiatrist, psychologist or other mental health practitioner, CCHR is a group willing to listen to and help you.

It is vital that criminal and other psychiatric abuse is reported and acted upon by the proper law enforcement agencies. Only in this way can you protect yourself and those you care about from the possibility of psychiatric abuse and coercion.

QUESTION: WHAT SHOULD BE REPORTED?

ANSWER: Report any crime or act which you believe endangers the health, safety and well-being of a child, family member or friend, including neglect, acts of physical or sexual assault, abusive physical or chemical restraints, false imprisonment (wrongful detention in a psychiatric facility), fraud or misdiagnosis.

QUESTION: HOW SHOULD THIS BE REPORTED?

ANSWER: Write up all known details about the abuse, including dates, places, names of psychiatrists, psychologists or others involved, ensuring patient confidentiality is respected. Send this to the nearest CCHR chapter. Following are some guidelines:

1. Provide answers to these questions:

• What led to the child or other person being diagnosed with a psychiatric “disorder,” treated and/or hospitalized by a mental health practitioner?
  
• What was the diagnosis given? Was this given after a thorough medical examination for underlying physical problems that could look like “mental illness”?
  
• Was there health insurance involved? Did it seem the diagnosis was based on what insurance coverage was held? Was length of hospitalization increased or decreased based on insurance coverage?
  
• Was full, written, informed consent given for the treatment received?
  
• If the abuse involved physical or chemical restraints, do you know who ordered the restraints and under what circumstances?
  
• What damage, if any, was suffered?

2. Support your information with as much documentation as possible. Remember, do not do anything illegal. Use only evidence that is acquired legally to substantiate the abuse.

3. Submit the below form to CCHR to further discuss your case and make an appointment.

All information will be held in strict confidence.
