What does the Church of Scientology say about Psychiatry?

“The psychiatrist and his front groups operate straight out of the terrorist textbooks. The Mafia looks like a convention of Sunday school teachers compared to these terrorist groups… Thousands and thousands are seized without process of law every week over the "free" world, tortured, castrated, killed. All in the name of ‘mental health.’ Setting himself up as a terror symbol, the psychiatrist kidnaps, tortures and murders without any slightest police interference or action by western security forces.”
-L. Ron Hubbard, Freedom Magazine 1 1969"
In 2007, the International Scientology News reported that the “2006 campaign for the Global Obliteration of Psychiatry” was successful in its attempts to “booby-trap the whole psychiatric ecosystem” with the “Mental Health Budget Adjustment Kit, which essentially works like a "smart bomb" in that it "sniffs" out psych fuel lines and blows the funding mechanism.”

 

How do they Fight Psychiatry?

Scientology’s biggest weapon against Psychiatry is their organization the “Citizens Commission on Human rights,” founded in 1969 by Dr. Thomas Szasz (who wrote The Myth of Mental Illness (1960)). While parading as a non-profit human rights advocacy group, it works to actively destroy the fields of Psychiatry and Psychology, which it contends are invalid sciences with no reliable methods of diagnosis.

They use Scientology’s favorite tool, litigation, to reduce funding for mental health organizations and to run Psychiatrists out of business.

 

“Over a decade, CCHR's investigations led to the prosecution of over a thousand psychiatrists, psychologists and mental health workers. This has prompted legislators and insurance companies to withdraw funding to criminal psychiatric practices, and to pass laws to protect individuals from them.”

 

Instructions from Hubbard on fighting Psychiatrists:

The Scientology doctrine of Fair Game is clearly called for in these orders.


"General scene: a psychiatrist who has instigated attacks on the org via police and press.
1. Expose his Nazi background to the press with evidence that he still attends local Nazi meetings.
2. Wake him up every night by calling him on the phone and threatening him.
3. Send an FSM (Field Staff Member) in to be a patient of his for a year to disperse the psych during sessions."
-"Operations Definitions" handwritten "7/8/77" document from FBI raid on Scientology in 1977
They make up grossly inflated statistics and pass them off as truth. These false stats are then used to shock parents and push for cuts in funding.

 

[CCHR’s] president is veteran Scientologist Dennis Clarke. Although he is not a doctor, Clarke has positioned himself as the country's most quoted Ritalin expert. In public appearances, Clarke cites a litany of alarming statistics, some of which are exaggerated, unsubstantiated or impossible to verify.

For example, Clarke has maintained that in Minneapolis, 20% of children under 10 attending mostly white schools in 1987 were on Ritalin and the percentage was double that in predominantly black schools.

‘If they are saying that is the statistic in Minneapolis, they are lying,’ said Vi Blosberg, manager of health services in the 39,000-student district. She said that fewer than 1% of students district wide were taking Ritalin or other drugs used to control hyperactivity during the year in question.

Psychiatry: An Industry of Death Museum

CCHR’s free museum in Los Angeles is dedicated to destroying psychiatry by spreading shocking half-truths and outright lies.

 

The museum features 14 documentaries with statements from scores of health professionals, academics, legal and human rights experts, and victims of psychiatric brutalities ranging from electroshock and involuntary commitment to political torture, psychosurgery and the devastating effects of psychotropic drugs. Accompanying each documentary are dozens of displays chronicling mental health barbarity spanning hundreds of years right up to present day.

A sampling of current statistics and facts shown in the new museum include:

Psychiatrists are using electroshock, drugs and other barbaric means to torture political dissidents.

20 million children worldwide are taking psychiatric drugs, which can cause suicide, hostility, violence, mania and drug dependence.

More than 100,000 patients die each year in psychiatric institutions.

Annually, psychiatrists kill up to 10,000 people with their use of electroshock, 460 volts of electricity sent searing through the brain.

Three-quarters of all electroshock victims are women.

Psychiatrists and psychologists have raped 250,000 women.

Studies show that 10 to 25 percent of psychiatrists sexually assault their patients; of every 20 of these victims one is likely to be a minor.

Why fight Psychiatry?

Scientologists are still under the impression that electroshock therapy and lobotomy are both still in wide use as psychiatric treatments.

 

When the Church of Scientology established CCHR in 1969, victims of psychiatry had no rights and needed a voice. Treatment was brutal, its only purpose to create compliant patients. Patients were subjected to punitive electroshock without anesthetic as punishment for bad behavior. Using lobotomies and other psychosurgical procedures, psychiatrists destroyed patients brains with callous disregard. Those under psychiatric care were mercilessly experimented upon with therapeutically unproven mind-altering drugs.
-CCHR web site
Scientologists believe that Psychiatrists are evil and insane, and force unnecessary drugs on people, thereby actually causing mental illness.

 

CCHR has documented thousands of individual cases that demonstrate psychiatric drugs and often-brutal psychiatric practices create insanity and cause violence. A major cause of the drug problem worldwide is the psychiatrist, who for decades has used his influence as a medical doctor to push extremely dangerous and addictive mind-altering drugs on persons of all ages some as young as one year old.


There would be public outcry if someone ran amok in the street, grabbing citizens because he disapproved of their behavior, locking them up and submitting them to mind-altering drugs or electric shock. The perpetrator would be criminally charged and jailed for many years. But because the perpetrator is a psychiatrist, his brutal acts are cloaked in terms such as treatment, mental health care, or preventing the person from doing harm, and are sanctioned by law.

Scientology’s Alternative: The Introspection Rundown

The Introspection Rundown was developed by L. Ron Hubbard as a treatment for individuals who suffer a psychotic break. The documents describing the procedure are:


While we will provide sources for any quotes a Google search of any of the above terms will provide you with other sources if you want to research this further.

 

The first step of the rundown is "isolate the person wholly with all attendants completely muzzled (no speech)." [1] Auditing sessions are given infrequently to search for the cause of the psychotic break during this rundown, otherwise the person is isolated in complete silence.

"When it is obvious the person is out of his psychosis and up to the responsibility of living with others his isolation is ended." [2] The supervisor in charge of the person being isolated tests the person's condition by writing a note, such as "'Dear Joe. What can you guarantee me if you are let out of isolation?'" [2] If Joe does not answer in writing satisfactorily, the supervisor must write back "'Dear Joe. I'm sorry but no go on coming out of isolation yet.'" [2] Of course, "this will elicit a protest from the person" [2] but the rundown is not over until the supervisor concludes that Joe has recognized what caused his psychotic break.
- HCO Bulletins [1] and [2] as noted

There have been many cases where the Church of Scientology's "cures" for mental problems failed with horrible results.
