Psychiatry – Bill Barbary
This is major truths that deserve to be acknowledged asap
When they say, “You are not a doctor” or “You don’t know what you are talking about” or “You shouldn’t be giving medical advice” or “What you are saying is dangerous”… show them these recent quotes from psychiatrists, psychologists, and physicians.
“What if the medications we rely on to treat mental illness are actually making things worse? Why are we prescribing based on checklists, not causes? If these drugs wear off and tolerance builds, aren’t we…”
Josef Witt-Doerring, Psychiatrist, May 31, 2025
**Psychiatry’s reliance on symptom checklists ignores the complexity of human experience. Medicating distress without understanding its roots is like treating a fever without finding the infection.”
Robert Whitaker, January 15, 2025

James Davies, Psychotherapist/Anthropologist, March 10, 2025
“Antidepressants can double the risk of suicide in some patients. Why isn’t this screamed from the rooftops? Because Big Pharma funds the megaphone.”
David Healy, Psychiatrist, April 22, 2025

Gail Hornstein, Psychologist, February 3, 2025

Kelly Brogan, Psychiatrist, May 1, 2025

Mark Horowitz, Psychiatrist, March 28, 2025

Allen Frances, Psychiatrist, April 10, 2025
**Psychiatric meds are often a Band-Aid for societal failures—inequality, isolation, abuse. We need to treat the cause, not dope up the symptom.”
Bruce Levine, Clinical Psychologist, January 28, 2025
“The placebo effect accounts for much of what antidepressants do. Why are we risking side effects for something barely better than sugar pills?”
Irving Kirsch, Psychologist, February 20, 2025
“Psychiatry’s obsession with biomarkers is a distraction. We’re chasing ghosts while patients suffer from real-world problems.”
Sami Timimi, Psychiatrist, March 5, 2025
**Benzodiazepines create dependency faster than we admit. Prescribing them for anxiety is like pouring gasoline on a fire.”
Anna Lembke, Psychiatrist, April 15, 2025
“The psychiatric industry thrives on pathologizing normal emotions. Sadness isn’t a disorder; it’s a signal to change something.”
Lucy Johnstone, Clinical Psychologist, May 12, 2025
“We’re medicating grief as if it’s a pathology. Feeling pain is human; numbing it with pills isn’t.”
Christopher Dowrick, Psychiatrist, February 10, 2025
“Psychiatric drugs are tested for weeks, but prescribed for years. The long-term harm is barely studied, yet we call it evidence-based.”
Peter Kinderman, Clinical Psychologist, April 25, 2025
“The rise in mental health diagnoses tracks the rise in drug prescriptions. Correlation isn’t causation, but it’s a red flag we’re ignoring.”
John Read, Clinical Psychologist, March 15, 2025
“Psychiatry’s quick fix with meds ignores the stories behind the symptoms. We’re treating people like machines, not humans.”
Ronald Pies, Psychiatrist, January 10, 2025
“Antidepressants can blunt emotions, not just depression. Patients tell me they feel like zombies—where’s the healing in that?”
Daniel Carlat, Psychiatrist, February 18, 2025
“The push to medicate kids for ADHD is driven by a system that can’t handle diversity in behavior. Pills are easier than reform.”
Lawrence Diller, Pediatrician, March 3, 2025
“We’re told psychiatric drugs are precise, but they’re blunt tools hitting a complex brain. The collateral damage is real.”
Stuart Shipko, Psychiatrist, April 12, 2025
“The chemical imbalance narrative is a marketing triumph, not a scientific one. It’s time we admit we don’t know enough to medicate so freely.”
Steven Hyman, Psychiatrist, January 25, 2025
“Psychiatry’s overreliance on drugs dismisses the power of human connection. A good conversation can do more than a pill.”
Dainius Pūras, Psychiatrist, May 8, 2025
“Antipsychotics can stabilize in a crisis, but long-term use often traps patients in a cycle of dependency and side effects.”
Sandra Steingard, Psychiatrist, March 20, 2025
“Labeling every struggle as a disorder feeds the pharmaceutical machine. We’re turning life’s challenges into billable diagnoses.”
Eric Maisel, Psychologist, February 7, 2025
“The data on SSRIs shows marginal benefits for most, yet we prescribe them like candy. Why aren’t we questioning this?”
David Cohen, Psychologist, April 18, 2025
“Psychiatric diagnoses often serve to justify medication, not to understand the patient. It’s a shortcut that fails too many.”
Gary Greenberg, Psychotherapist, January 30, 2025
“Benzos for anxiety are a trap. Short-term relief, long-term addiction. We need to teach coping, not prescribe escape.”
Nicole Lamberson, Physician, March 12, 2025
“The DSM’s expansion of disorders isn’t science—it’s politics. More diagnoses mean more drugs, not more truth.”
Paula Caplan, Psychologist, April 5, 2025
“Medicating children for emotional distress is like fixing a broken heart with surgery. It’s the wrong tool for the job.”
Peter Gray, Psychologist, February 25, 2025
“Psychiatry’s faith in drugs assumes the brain is the problem, but what if it’s the environment we’re all stuck in?”
Jonathan Stea, Clinical Psychologist, May 15, 2025
“Antidepressants can cause withdrawal worse than the condition they’re meant to treat. That’s not medicine—it’s harm.”
Luke Montagu, Psychiatrist, March 8, 2025
“The pharmaceutical industry shapes psychiatric practice more than we admit. Follow the money, not the science.”
Marcia Angell, Physician, April 20, 2025
“We’re overdiagnosing depression to sell pills, when often it’s just life being hard. Let’s stop pathologizing pain.”
Gordon Parker, Psychiatrist, February 12, 2025
“Psychiatric meds can change your personality, not just your mood. Are we okay with altering who people are?”
John Gartner, Psychologist, January 22, 2025
“The rise in polypharmacy—prescribing multiple psych meds—is a sign of desperation, not progress. We’re guessing, not healing.”
Thomas Insel, Psychiatrist, May 10, 2025
“Mental health isn’t a pill problem; it’s a human problem. Psychiatry needs to listen more and prescribe less.”
Mary Pipher, Clinical Psychologist, March 18, 2025
“Psychiatry is built on a lie: that mental distress is a brain disease. It’s a social control mechanism, not medicine.”
Thomas Szasz, Psychiatrist (deceased, quoted in discussions), January 5, 2025
“The DSM is a fiction, turning human struggles into billable disorders. It’s time to ditch it and start listening to people.”
Bonnie Burstow, Psychotherapist, February 12, 2025
“Psychiatric drugs don’t heal; they sedate. We’re numbing people to keep them compliant, not to fix their minds.”
Peter Stastny, Psychiatrist, March 18, 2025
“Mental illness is a metaphor, not a fact. Psychiatry’s obsession with labeling and drugging is a betrayal of human experience.”
R.D. Laing, Psychiatrist (deceased, quoted in discussions), April 10, 2025
“Antidepressants are a scam. The placebo effect is stronger, and the side effects are devastating. We need to wake up.”
David Carmichael, Physician, January 22, 2025
“Psychiatry’s chemical imbalance myth is a marketing ploy. It justifies pills while ignoring trauma and society’s failures.”
Eleanor Longden, Psychologist, May 3, 2025
“We’re locking people in a cycle of drugs and diagnoses, calling it care. It’s a system of oppression, not healing.”
Laura Delano, Psychotherapist, February 8, 2025
“The psychiatric industry thrives on inventing disorders. Every new DSM edition is a catalog for Big Pharma.”
Philip Hickey, Psychologist, March 25, 2025
“Forced medication is a human rights violation. Psychiatry’s power to coerce needs to be dismantled.”
Tina Minkowitz, Psychiatrist, April 15, 2025
“Psychiatric drugs cause more harm than good. Long-term use rewires the brain, creating dependency, not recovery.”
Jim Gottstein, Psychiatrist, January 30, 2025
“The idea of ‘mental illness’ is a construct to pathologize dissent. Psychiatry is more about control than compassion.”
David Oaks, Psychotherapist, May 12, 2025
“Antipsychotics are chemical straitjackets. They don’t cure; they suppress, often at the cost of a person’s vitality.”
Will Hall, Psychologist, March 5, 2025
“Psychiatry’s reliance on drugs is a failure of imagination. We need to rethink distress as a human response, not a defect.”
Jacqui Dillon, Psychologist, April 20, 2025
“The DSM turns normal emotions into disorders to sell drugs. It’s a business model, not a scientific one.”
Jeffrey Lacasse, Psychologist, February 15, 2025
“Psychiatric medications are a gamble with your brain. The risks—akathisia, tardive dyskinesia—are swept under the rug.”
Sera Davidow, Psychotherapist, January 18, 2025
“Psychiatry’s diagnostic system is a trap. Once labeled, you’re a patient for life, hooked on pills you don’t need.”
Ron Unger, Psychologist, March 10, 2025
“Big Pharma funds psychiatry’s research and practice. It’s not about healing; it’s about profit.”
Mary Maddock, Psychiatrist, April 8, 2025
“We’re drugging kids for being kids. ADHD is a label to justify control, not a disease requiring medication.”
Fred Baughman, Neurologist, February 25, 2025
“Psychiatry’s medical model is a dead end. Mental distress is about life, not brain chemistry.”
Pat Bracken, Psychiatrist, May 1, 2025
“The harm of psychiatric drugs is hidden by a system that blames the patient, not the pill, for side effects.”
Sarah Fay, Psychologist, March 22, 2025
“Psychiatry’s power to define ‘normal’ is dangerous. It turns human diversity into a disorder to be medicated.”
Rufus May, Clinical Psychologist, January 12, 2025
“Antidepressants don’t fix depression; they create a new state of mind, often worse than the original.”
Ann Blake-Tracy, Psychotherapist, April 18, 2025
“The psychiatric system is a machine that chews up people’s stories and spits out prescriptions.”
Alisha Ali, Psychologist, February 20, 2025
“We’re told psychiatry is science, but it’s guesswork dressed up as expertise. The drugs are the proof.”
Barry Duncan, Psychologist, March 15, 2025
“Psychiatric labels are a life sentence. Once you’re diagnosed, the drugs and stigma follow you forever.”
Celia Brown, Psychotherapist, May 5, 2025
“Benzodiazepines turn anxiety into addiction. Psychiatry’s solution is worse than the problem.”
Christy Huff, Cardiologist, January 28, 2025
“The DSM is a tool of social control, not medicine. It pathologizes anyone who doesn’t fit the norm.”
Kate Crawford, Psychiatrist, April 3, 2025
“Psychiatric drugs are marketed as safe, but they can destroy lives. Withdrawal alone is proof of their danger.”
Monica Cassani, Psychotherapist, February 10, 2025
“Psychiatry’s reliance on medication is a betrayal of human resilience. We’re more than our brain chemistry.”
Ron Coleman, Psychologist, March 30, 2025
“The chemical imbalance lie keeps patients dependent on drugs that don’t work. It’s time for a new approach.”
Lauren Tenney, Psychologist, April 25, 2025
“Psychiatry’s answer to distress is to medicate it away, ignoring the real causes—trauma, poverty, injustice.”
Darby Penney, Psychotherapist, January 15, 2025

Michael Cornwall, Psychotherapist, April 12, 2025

Lisa Forestell, Psychologist, March 8, 2025

David Ross, Psychiatrist, January 20, 2025

Philip Thomas, Psychiatrist, May 15, 2025

“Antidepressants can trap you in a cycle of dependency. That’s not healing—it’s harm.”
Judi Chamberlin, Psychotherapist, April 30, 2025
“Psychiatry’s obsession with drugs ignores the soul of the person. We need to listen, not prescribe.”
Daniel Mackler, Psychotherapist, March 12, 2025
“I think this is a problem with American psychiatry: most people just think about symptom disorders. ‘It’s a depression, it’s an anxiety disorder, so there’s got to be a medication for it. Well, you can be depressed because of the way your mind works—not because your neurons.”
Jonathan Shedler, Psychiatrist, February 24, 2025
“To all psychiatric patients: Desist further diagnoses when you are receiving a psychiatric drug. It is poor medical practice to make further diagnoses when a person is under the influence of a brain-active chemical, as the new symptoms are most likely drug-induced.”
Peter C. Gøtzsche, Doctor, April 6, 2023
“Antidepressants make you feel like you are going to lose control and possibly harm people close to you. They make you feel like you can not trust yourself. They put bad thoughts in your head, and this scares the people that take them.
Andrew Zywiec, Medical Doctor, February 5, 2025
“Psychiatry is a scam. As both a victim of that scam (put on meds as a teenager, destroyed my life, and took nearly two decades to get clean) and a medical doctor, I can assure you, your brain isn’t broken and you don’t need pills.
Andrew Zywiec, Medical Doctor, February 8, 2025
Leveling up – Truth Lights our way / June
Starseeds are about to level up in a big way. We welcome the 1st day of June and for some the months of April and May were some of the most intense months of this year for them. The planetary alignments brought in significant energetic changes and prominent shifts for Many . In this month of June there is higher potential for ascending and metaphysical changes .
We are in Gemini season. Gemini is an air sign that is actively seeking out new information, intelligent changes and brand new adventures. This will be a different energy month to help us push through and to move forward, to be steps closer to creating the life we are vibrationaly aligned with .
Change can be uncomfortable because of the unknown factor. Trust this change is for your highest good as you will be moving beyond old ways of being and excited to embrace new experiences. By finding what brings in more passion, love, and positivity, we can create a fulfilling life in new earth’s energy that makes us feel more alive , awakened and sovereign .
We carry the memories and experiences of our ancestors, both the traumas as well as the gifts. Ancestral healing repairs the connection with our wise ancestors, who are also here to serve as our spirit guides. Many may be called to heal their ancestral lineage and clear blockages imprinted in your DNA, aligning you with your Highest Self, who is always connected to ALL.
June presents us with situations from our past this is to test if we have acquired the necessary skills and tools to move forward on our journey towards our higher soul purpose. These tests come from higher self and will determine whether we have truly evolved and developed new perspectives or if we still need to repeat some of our past lessons.
Starseeds all have an inner knowing when needing to make wise choices and respond appropriately to whatever comes their way.
This may involve confronting past situations or people and assessing whether you are in control of your life and embracing a 5D consciousness or still operating from the ego self. This next planetary theme is also about taking back your inner power and making decisions in accordance with your divine will that aligns with higher self embodiment.
Ascending Starseeds also understand the importance of releasing burdens that are not theirs to carry. Often they tend to overextend themselves, leading to undue stress and fatigue. Continuing with this behaviour can often result in damaging the pattern that can negatively impact experiences in the future.
In order to avoid this, it’s important to detach from negative people, excessive obligations, dysfunction, dramas, and self-imposed limitations to release and complete past karmic cycles. The current energies of the approaching 6:6 Portal provide a heightened opportunity to reflect, recharge, and renew the mind, body, and spirit.
We were given the Wounds we are meant to teach others to heal. Starseeds the truth is once you start genuinely accepting and loving yourself, people will no longer look good to you unless they are good for you. As you Ascend your intuitive system will always alert you .
Ultimately unconditional , universal Love is the most powerful force in the entire universe, and emits the highest frequency that you can possibly achieve in human form . Ascension leads to Transforming every thought and giving love to everything and everyone, as this is the only power to completely transform your life here on Earth .
Starseeds on planet Earth have chosen to be the ambassadors of Light. They are the ones that make the biggest difference and create the change needed in this world.
We are being propelled forward by the evolutionary flow of life and as the fragmented aspects of this world dissolve our perceptions of reality shifts. Everything that is occurring now is supporting the liberation of our soul and assisting us in releasing old patterns, old programs and old ways of being. As a result, our vision is being cleared and truth is emerging.
This is going to be one of the best months
Of the year. As this next full moon is a benevolent one. Our planet has started to receive an influx of loving higher energies as they are now pouring into the planet, because of this Starsseeds will emit and attract unconditional love, healing, new opportunities and exciting connections. In this month many will be experiencing unexpected blessings from Higher ascension realms.
In loving and devoted Ascension service

Clearing 3 Decades of Karma / 1999-2025-26
Highly significant to me 💯🎁🙏
Saturn has now entered Aries, and the shift is already underway. Even if your day-to-day still looks the same on the outside, something inside is changing fast.
There’s a growing pull to focus only on what is real, what is solid, and what has a future. The things you used to hold onto—the fantasy, the “someday,” the maybes—suddenly feel distant. Illusions that once had power over you lose their grip. The spell breaks, and you see things clearly, maybe for the first time in years.
This is the start of a brand-new cycle, carrying the full weight of everything you’ve moved through since 1999. Saturn was last in Aries from 1996 to 1999, and now, after nearly three decades and a full journey through every sign of the zodiac, it has returned.
Every choice you’ve made since that time—every pattern, every shift, every hard-earned lesson—has been leading to this point. The karmic energy from that entire chapter now begins to unfold. What you gave will return, what you left unresolved will rise to meet you, and what you built quietly and steadily will begin to take shape.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac. It brings the spark to begin, the will to act, and the fire to move forward and Saturn brings structure, maturity, and accountability. Together, they create a powerful filter. Anything vague, unstable, dishonest, or emotionally ungrounded will start to fall away fast.
That person you kept waiting for, the plan you convinced yourself was just “delayed,” or that hope you clung to even when it stopped making sense, all lose their pull. You stop romanticizing effort that never brought results and you stop giving your time to people who only offered potential.
And when the shift happens, it happens fast. One moment you’re still hooked, still wondering, still trying. The next, it’s gone. The interest fades, the attachment breaks and you look at something—or someone—you once thought you could never let go of, and feel nothing. It no longer holds weight. It no longer holds power. What once consumed you now feels like a different life. That is the work of Saturn in Aries: fast clarity, clean detachment, and a fire that clears the past without hesitation.
This energy brings a sharp focus on the future. If something has no path forward, you feel it right away or if a situation cannot grow with you, it starts to close itself off. You may wake up one day and feel done with something that once shaped your entire identity. You no longer have space for waiting, wondering, or pretending. There is too much life ahead and too much wisdom behind you.
Between late May and early September, Saturn stays close to Neptune, both in Aries. This pairing removes the fog, as Neptune shows you what you wanted to believe and Saturn shows you what is actually happening. You may begin to feel that the stories you told yourself no longer fit your reality. That old dream may not just fade—it may suddenly feel irrelevant and people who once captivated you may start to feel distant or hard to connect with. These changes do not necessarily happen because something went wrong. It’s simply because you have outgrown the illusion, and you are now choosing what is true.
This clarity brings karmic energy back into balance. Since 1999, you’ve been collecting experiences, making decisions, and learning through every season of your life. Saturn in Aries brings that full history into focus. If you have acted with effort, courage, and integrity—even when no one noticed—this is when the returns begin. The rewards may be subtle at first: more peace, stronger boundaries, opportunities that feel aligned, deeper self-trust. But they will be steady and lasting.
And if there are things you delayed, avoided, or denied—this is when they come up for resolution and clearing. Old guilt, unfinished business, or unspoken truths rise now so you can face them directly and release the energy tied to them. This is the moment where you stop dragging the past behind you and start walking freely toward what is next.
You may feel a new kind of focus forming. You want to build something real, invest in what has a future, or surround yourself with people who are clear, grounded, and moving in the same direction. There is no more time for guessing games or wishful thinking. Everything in your system now wants truth, wants action, and wants progress that means something.
In September, Saturn will briefly move back into Pisces. That return gives you time to reflect, to feel, and to let go with compassion. Pisces allows you to rest and process what you’ve released. Then in February 2026, Saturn returns to Aries and stays until April 2028. This stretch is all about momentum with meaning, action with substance, and decisions that build a life you actually want to live.
You are no longer here to wait and hope. You are here to lead your own life forward—with clarity, with strength, and with a full understanding of what truly matters. Saturn in Aries brings the structure. Aries brings the fire. Together, they give you everything you need to build a future rooted in truth.
This is your reset, your reward, and your clean start. Now is the time to let go of anything that no longer holds you and commit fully to what will.

Breaking the family silence
Truthers is most dangerous to narcissists
What do narcissists do with “ truth tellers ” ?
There are men who come in to repair
And then they make their early diagnosis.
They look at you and detect you.
They land in your little world like Columbus in America. But they don’t conquer you. They don’t plunder you. They don’t even deceive you.
They only bring love in pots. And they do what they have to do for you. For your soul. For your pain.
Because you wanted to find something else in life. Some men know. I still don’t know. I haven’t suspected it yet.
Even without being fully aware of their importance. They know with a different wisdom. They smile with different smiles.
They speak in different words. They work magic. There are men like that. I swear to you. I’ve seen them. I know them. I watch them play.
From afar or up close. I admire them. Sometimes I let myself be excited by them. Because they hold art in their hands. They open you up. And you don’t suspect anything for a second.
Because they are friends. But they are not ordinary friends. They are strange friends. They are friends from elsewhere. They are companions of stars.
They arrive. They do. They say. Look. Come. They won’t always love you. They won’t always love you the way you want them to love you.
You won’t always love them the way they want you to love them. It’s something else. Something else. They will arrive to fulfill their destiny.
They will arrive to improve your life for a while. To do you a favor for a while. To make a pact. Because they are something else.
Deeper. Stranger. More capable of staying inside you. Because these men will live in those places where you let no one in. Because you will remain in them like a girl gazing at the sea on the beach at night.
There are men who come to repair the women who repair. Because they were born for that. To heal those who heal.
To heal those who heal. Because we are partners. Beloved. Lovers. In love.
And when two such lovely companions cross paths, meet, entwine, love each other in their own way, the universe celebrates.
The universe thanks you, and so do you.
