Medicating Normal: How Big Pharma Makes Healthy People Sick | ENDEVR Documentary
Opioid Tragedy - Inside the Fentanyl Crisis: • Opioid Tragedy: Inside...
Millions of people worldwide are physically dependent on commonly prescribed psychiatric drugs. While these drugs can provide effective short-term relief, pharmaceutical companies have hidden -from both doctors and patients - their dangerous side effects, addictive nature, and long-term harm.
Combining cinema verité and investigative journalism, Medicating Normal follows the stories of those whose lives have been torn apart by the very medications they believed would help them. Expert testimony and undercover footage reveal a systemically corrupt industry. Medicating Normal is the untold story of the disastrous consequences that can occur when profit-driven medicine intersects with human beings in distress.

The psycho Pharmaceutical industry started with severe mental illnesses. They created thorazine. Antipsychotics make big differences in some people's lives. There just isn't a lot of people at that level of need. They make way more money on antidepressants and ADHD drugs. The people with mild issues are there cash cow. Most of the people who have severe mental illnesses can barely afford them. They are hard to treat and it is just easier to go after mostly normal people with some depression.

I'm 76 and take no medications at all. 20 years ago the Veteran's Administration had me on all kinds of medications, for depression, PTSD, high blood pressure and pain. I quit that nonsense as one medication always caused more problems. And in 2013 I left the US and left all my problems behind. My problems were all environmental and situational and no medications will ever correct the causes.

I lost my son 4 months after he was started on ADD meds. I didn't want him on a stimulant, but his doctor wouldn't even consider my feelings she kept pushing. It was after i lost him that i learned about the black box warnings and the effects of suicide. My baby was only 12 years old. They are murderering our children, friends, and family for personal gain, and the powers that be are complacent in allowing it to continue. This truly is good vs. evil.

@OurFreeSociety Yes. He committed suicide within 4 months of that medicine. From all of my research, it seems like the biggest factors linked to ADD/ADHD is floride and diet. One thing I will say, is he woke me up. I was on antidepressants for 20 years. I'm no off of all that medicine, and really don't understand why I ever needed. There's so much to be said for inner work, meditation, and learning how to channel your emotional energy. This is what our ancestors did for thousands of years.

During 2016, when my son died on the road here in the Kingdom of Belgium, I made an appointment with a psy at the flamish hospital close to my house : AZ VUB, asking for help. The psychiatrist told me exactly this : " The less you take chemich drugs, the better you feel. You must grieve". I said,: "what? But doctor, I go in the woods at night and I scream, I run, I scratch the ground, please, help me ! " He answered : "You scratch the ground to find the love you've lost, keep doing it. Don't stop and come back to talk with me any time. I'm here for you. Call me any time but don't start with chem. drugs. You need time to grieve". We talked for an hour and did it every week. What a wonderful doctor. After a cupple of months, we became friends. Thanks God, I met the right psychatrist.

My son was in 3rd grade when a cognitive behavioral psychologist said he has ADHD and suggested Vyvanse. I had to mix it in orange juice and call it his "wake up" drink. The nurse called me and told me and said my son was complaining of no taste buds and upset tummy! We change it to.. I can't remember what... and he had a complete loss of appetite and was a complete zombie! Of course schools want your children to be like "ducks in a row". My son doesn't roll like that.. so they wanted him on medication! I was HORRIFIED by what was happening to my little boy, my only child. I took him off all meds and let things fly. Come spring of 5th grade... I pulled him out to homeschool. Things have never been better!

Because when you give any medication to your kids when they are young then you are responsible for the consequences. ADHD is not a disease and can't be prove with any blood test. The symptom is based on behavioral diagnosis.

The same story with my son. I fought the whole idea but eventually succumbed to meds because they wouldn't let him go to school otherwise. I watched him get skinnier and sickler. Eventually took him out of public school but he ended up going into the judicial system. He's been fighting that his whole life. He and so many of his friends fell through the cracks and when they were 18 they were taken off their meds and so many of them searched for meth on the street to mimic the medication they couldn't get anymore. All the systems are so broken. We were all just guinea pigs used and served by a monetary based broken system

I was a foster kid and starting at age 11 the state of Tennessee placed me on a triad of strong psychiatric medications. By the time I aged out at 18 I had taken over 28 different psychiatric meds. My 18th bday I signed myself out of state care in 2000. It’s no wonder, I succumbed to the opioid epidemic and by 2003 I was on methadone(preferred treatment at that time). I was stuck on that until 2009 when I switched to suboxone. I was a slave to that until may 2023 when I flew to Mexico and detoxed with a sacred plant medicine used for 1000’s of years called Ibogaine. Its a psychedelic that helped me get to the root of my trauma(foster care). I am 10 months clean from being on opioid maintenance medication for the last 20 years and my gratitude overflows.

People underestimate the power good nutrition has on their health. I suffered from anxiety, panic attacks, acid reflux, headaches, joint pain, and a few skin issues for more than 25 years. All of it went away when I started limiting my sugars and carbohydrates. Food affects mental and physical health. Update: The positive reactions that I've received to such a simple post make me feel good. It makes me think that people are finally waking up to the lies that have been spread by the medical industrial complex for so long. Keep up the good fight and spread the word!

Psychiatric medications are based upon theory. None of it has ever been proven. And the majority were created to treat other things then used for psychiatry. In Latin America they do not prescribe opioids except extreme and rare measures. Depression remains a big concern, especially among the poor. Everyone needs a good future and purpose in life. Oh, illicit drugs will fetch more than 200 times the price in the US. So wile present there really isn't much unless sold and used to American and Xanadian tourists.

@samiraschadt8480, plenty of studies have shown that cholesterol levels are NOT.a reliable indictor for heart attacks. We need cholesterol to be healthy which is why our body will make it if we don't get enough thru our diet. And you are correct that doctors will prescribe statins without discussing any other option. I had a very nice doctor want to put my 90 yo mom on statins "just in case". We had a good conversation and I said "No, she is going to die of something and I am not worried about her heart." He did accept my decision but the fact that he suggested it at her age told me a lot.

Exactly how methadone works, put me on that after being prescribed by Oxycodone for nerve pain. After being on the one dose on & off for around 20 years & needed the dosing adjusted they refused so just took me straight off it which of course nearly sent me mad. However they had no problems putting me on methadone & adjusting the dose. Even though this is done by the public system they had absolutely no problems asking me to give them my private health information to fund a public hospital, but there is absolutely no difference in treatment.

My brother had some many problems after quitting methadone abruptly. He developed a paranoia that he had bugs under his skin. He self-medicated with cattle antibiotics, bathed in bleach, and went back to street drugs. When he went to doctors for help with the itching, he wasn’t given anything that helped, and his mental state made reasoning with him about it difficult. It ruined his quality of life even worse than the opiates had.

I'm an addict, in recovery 14 years, my doctor knew that, I was having bad pain and they wanted to put me on Gabapentin. I specifically asked if it was addictive and if there could be withdrawal and was told emphatically "NO! Definitely not!" Let me tell you I've come off a lot of drugs in my day, I have NEVER had withdrawal like that! I almost unalived myself! It was horrible! They tell you whatever they have to to get you to take it. I am terrified of any new drug at this point. I'd rather suffer the pain be it emotionally or physically than take my chances with whatever chemicals they're trying to push. I take Tylenol or Advil if I have pain and I take medicine to manage a thyroid problem, other than that I don't take anything these days and have no plans of changing that any time soon. Edit: The addiction was started by doctors as well. I broke my back and was prescribed opiates for pain. This was during the opiate crisis when doctors were handing them out like candy. I was told I had nothing to worry about as long as I took it as prescribed. Another lie!

Paxil is known (well, in circles where such things are discussed) as being particularly dangerous coming AND going. Or, as I told my late husband, “If you weren’t already taking it, I wouldn’t want you to start; but since you’ve been taking it for 10 years, it would be just as dangerous for you to stop”. Some dodo-brained psychiatrist suddenly stopped it during his last psychiatric hospitalization, and he spent a week puking and pooping; came back and took 30 minutes to make a 5 minute drive because he kept thinking he’d run over imaginary people… I’d never recommend it to anyone. Prozac is considered the safest of the SSRI’s, mostly because it takes so long to leave your body it creates a gradual ramping-up and ramping-off all on its own, like Valium does for benzos (as explained in the Ashton Manual, available for free online); this effect also makes it helpful for tapering off any SSRI.

I have a friend who hurt his back and can"t work , he is in pain constantly. Because he can't work he got very depressed, he went to a psychiatrist who wanted to give him medication for depression. He didn't want to take it because he doesn't like mind altering drugs and wanted to deal with his problem naturally. He was told by his psychiatrist that if he didn't take the anti depressant medication his insurance payments would stop.... He gets the prescriptions written for him but doesn't take the drugs. He IS dealing with it with diet and natural alternatives.

Homeopathy has also cured depression, an anxiety disorder, food poisoning, skin rashes, warts, and more. The AMA and Am Psych Assn have been FIGHTING this wonderful medical approach for over 100 years-no money in it.

After my partner of 17 years died, I was referred to a psychiatrist for depression. During my treatment period, I was on several prescriptions (not simultaneously). I experienced several physical side effects, but what I didn’t realize at the time was that I was experiencing drastic personality changes. I started using credit cards excessively, made very poor life decisions and did things that I would usually never do. I drove myself into bankruptcy, sold my townhouse without any consideration for the financial outcome and couldn’t hold down a job. Then I decided to stop all of my medications because of the physical side effects. It wasn’t until after a month of being prescription free did I fully comprehend the radical personality changes wrought by those drugs. I was horrified by my behavior!!! Never again! It’s been over 24 years since that period of my life and I avoid prescription medications of any kind. I am 73 years old and have never felt better. 😊

She only mentioned one, which would happen with long term use. I took it for a few years then found information on just how dangerous it was if taken long term. I was furious and quit taking it. It infuriates me to see how doctors and Big Pharma treat us, and I deeply feel for everyone who has suffered because of incompetence and greed.

It was unheard of to get a prescription from a doctor unless a kid had severe mental illness diagnosis like schizophrenia. I went to a birthday party for my friend's daughter not long ago and the parents were talking about the medications their 10 year old kids were all taking.

Watching this... All I can think about is my mother. She physically passed away in 2021. She suffered with depression for as long as I can remember, and in 2014 it really reached a peak. She took many many many medications, and everything described in this documentary is her life. It was tragic to see her deteriorate, to see her disconnect from us emotionally, physically, in every way. She was a shell of the person I knew as a child. I mourned her loss before she was actually gone. What a sad thing to say, but it's true. She died long before her body died. I miss her.

Two years on Ritalin gave me disfiguring facial tics that still affect me, almost 20 years later. I never needed the drug, just faked symptoms and took is as performance enhancer/recreational/ self prescribed anti-anxiety medication. Also, I onze had one single box of Diazepam prescribed as sleeping pills for a business trip to Asia. The effect of those pills was fantastic, without any (normal) anxiety, you become as cool as Jack Nicholson. But just taking those 20 pills over a month or so resulted in very dark thoughts of fear, anxiety and depression-like symptoms / mental feebleness that lasted a long time afterwards. Can’t begin to imagine what the people in this film have been going through. My deepest and heartfelt sympathies to all of you.

I lost my leg in a car accident and one night while in the rehab hospital a new medication appeared. The nurse said the doctor (of Physical Medicine) had added an antidepressant (without any discussion). I refused it until I could talk to him. I asked why he’d prescribed it, as I was not feeling depressed, and he said, “We assume you will be.” …..!! I refused the prescription, and then I expedited my withdrawal off of pain medication, which although was very necessary at the beginning, I believe I was also over-prescribed (too many and for too long). I quickly became (and remain, 20 years later) pill free, and as a result, I was clear minded while processing the grief and trauma of the accident. 😩 …. I am so grateful I was raised to question authority!

I was prescribed an SSRI because I was withdrawn for a summer as a teenager. The SSRI made me irritable, which then led to a false diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder Type 2. I was then prescribed more drugs which kept me in a drug-induced haze which ruined 16 years of my life. Eventually, I discovered the book Anatomy of an Epidemic by Robert Whitaker and other critical psychiatry books and realized what was happening to me, so I slowly tapered off the psych drugs. I lost years of wages and a social life to these drugs. There has been no justice for what was done to me. Psychiatry and pharma are overdue for a reckoning.

I’m an RN and I know it’s a bit of hypocrisy in me but I do not go to the doctors at all unless absolutely necessary (ie, broken arm, accidents, etc). I’ve already witnessed what the health system is like. Doctors should only be there for major issues and everyone really should be taking care of their health on a daily basis via diet and exercise and building coping mechanism for stress to prevent chronic issues. Accidents we cannot control, and that is what medicine and doctors should be for. The rest, we can take care of at home living holistically. I’m pregnant with my first child and I will go to the doctor to get checkups but I will not participate in extra drugs or unnecessary procedures. It’s a shame that it has to come to that but I feel the current health system is too profit oriented to be safe

Similar thing here. Often homeless, warehouse jobs, but actually quite healthy for my age, and have been living with cancer with over a decade (I was diagnosed when still in my early 30s, it had spread but the mets were dormant and the cancerologist who seemed the most competent - I saw a few of them - suggested watchful waiting as there wasn't a 'treatment' available, i.e. a molecular target). Osteoarthritis and my eyesight are bigger bothers. I focus on eating well (ie. meat, fish and vegetables, cooking frojm scratch) and getting enough sleep (not that easy when you either sleep in fields or in dorms or in a tent at a camping site). With my existing conditions and my background, I could be on 2 dozens medications, would definitely have a thyroidectomy etc. I wonder about the Princess of Wales who had surgery in January and has been 'focusing on her health' since then. Apparently she is having preventative chemotherapy now. What if she couldn't afford to stop working, like me?

I dated a guy who was on the HIGHEST dose of Lunesta for almost 20 years since his divorce. I went over there for the first time in almost 2 years. The next day I was so tired and groggy I slept nearly the whole day. Finally, halfway through the second day after I left, I finally felt like myself. That stuff sheds from the body and STAYS in the surrounding environment. He told me it’s great I should take it. I have no problems sleeping anymore. I don’t need meds for that. I think people take it to escape from life and solving their real problems. If you’re not sleeping, there is a reason why, and you need to solve it. You can take meds, to take the edge off, to get you to physically sleep, but your underlying problems need to be explored.

My Mom was on antidepressants and anti psychotic drugs for depression since the 1970s. She was never really present. She seemed distant, numb, and bereft of any emotion. I vowed never to alter my own feelings by taking such pills. I want to fully experience life’s ups and downs. As a nurse, I witnessed the effects of poly pharmacy on a daily basis. Taking 30 pills a day was routine for many elderly assisted living residents. Many of these drugs were antidepressants. Falls were quite frequent and prevalent, and the negative outcomes became an endless cycle of decline. Wine was served at meals, and this only enhanced the problem. Ethically, I could no longer participate in such a dangerous mode of operation. I have recently left the profession. It was sick care, not healthcare.

When I told my physiatrist that’s I wanted to come off, she just gave me a dead look in the face. Then when I told her I weened myself off and how bad it felt, I was presented with another death stare. She then put me on Zoloft. I took it three times and never did again. I actually have my follow up appointment with her on Thursday to “see how things are going” with the Zoloft. And I’m going to tell her to shove it!

Instead, I sat in front of a mirror and talked as if I were talking to the person who had really hurt me. I did that every day for three months. Pretty soon I realized that I didn't need to talk to that person anymore and I was able to sleep and eat again normally. This worked for me, but it does point out how important it was to talk it out. I made little realizations every session that overall helped me a lot.

I was a mental health counselor and while I understand that sometimes patients need medication but almost all psychopharmacology has bad long term side effects. I've had problems with depression myself and have probably been prescribed just about every antidepressant and I never felt any better. I've got a good Dr now who really went through diet changes to make and even gave me tips for growing my own vegetables and herbs. After 30 years of trying all kinds of medication, I finally feel so much better and my health is better just from changing my diet and am a vegetarian now.

As a social worker for 35 yrs I began talking about this exact topic in 1993. People ran from me. I have been doing natural (evidenced based) medicine showing all my research on my website. Since 2006 you cannot do your own medical billing, you must work for a group or get refused malpractice insurance and cannot get referrals. Also I was told I must use their evals which force me accept a Dx- I can no longer do my own Dx? and then get fired for not prescribing enough meds. The threats are insane.

I’m a nurse and went down the rabbit hole with my eldest son when he complained of being “in a funk” at age 19…. 1st was Paxil and within 6 years he was being rx’d Seroquel, zyprexa, Ativan, Valium, geodon to name a few…. It took us almost 5 years to effectively wean him off all of it. I have always felt guilty for even suggesting that he talk to his doctor about any of it. He now finally has a calm, productive life with no meds (or mental illness) but feels robbed of over a dozen years due to the greed of the pharmaceutical co and the sheep of a doctor that just kept blindly prescribing

so sorry for what you and your son went thru, I lost 42 yrs of my life to overprescribing doctor both medical and psychiatric. I lost over 50lbs got off ALL meds and reversed or cured all the different "diseases" they told me I had (some of which I never had) Now drs are scared of me, because I've proved that you can get healthy, that you can heal, and all it took was a good diet, some fresh air and exercise (just walking!) and staying as far away from drs as humanly possible!! unless you break your arm or something like that, I mean. I am grateful that I was able to see my way clear of their nonsense before my life was over, and now I am trying to cram as much joy into each day as I possibly can.

Glad it's working out for ur son. He sounds just like me when I was his age. I'm 52 now. I also kicked Depressions butt for yrs on end and thought that was that. Or so I thought. After being married and having kids it came back and with a vengeance. And for no reason at all. It just came back. It destroyed my marriage and the beautiful life I had do to the loss of my job. Wat I'm saying is that darkness will always b with u. It will leave u alone for yrs on end and come out whenever it wants. Hope that never happens to ur son.

The emergence of the Ozempic crisis is indeed troubling, especially considering how it's being abused by individuals, including housewives, as a weight-loss tool. It's disheartening to see medications that are intended for specific medical conditions being misused in such a way. The pressure to conform to societal standards of beauty and the relentless pursuit of the "ideal" body image can lead individuals down dangerous paths. Ozempic, originally intended to treat type 2 diabetes, is not without its risks, and its misuse for weight loss purposes can have serious health consequences. The fact that it's being abused by individuals, often without proper medical guidance or supervision, highlights the need for a more holistic approach to health and well-being. Crash diets, quick-fix solutions, and the misuse of medications only serve to perpetuate harmful cycles of disordered eating and negative body image. As healthcare professionals, it's crucial for us to educate and empower individuals to make informed choices about their health. It's about promoting body positivity, healthy lifestyle habits, and finding sustainable ways to achieve well-being. The Ozempic crisis is a stark reminder of the dangers of quick-fix solutions and the importance of addressing the root causes of health issues. Let's continue to advocate for a system that prioritizes education, support, and holistic approaches to health, steering clear of the pitfalls of misuse and abuse. 🌿💪

Amazing documentary with heartbreaking testimonies of which mine could have been one. My story of anorexia, erythromelalgia and doctors giving up on me proposing medical assisted dying when I reached the age of 41. No support from my family, I lost everything, job, house, friends and almost my life. Overmedicated, oxycodon, carbermazerpine, gabapentine, and so on... I threw everything away and stopped eating and drinking. Believe it or not, but there is where God saved me. At 45 kg, 1m82, 41 year old woman, fasted for over 20 days and... started to feel better!! I searched on the internet with what to refeed. Red meat. Yes, I became OMAD carnivore and now 4 years into my healing journey, I am writing my autobiography to raise awareness and... I met a supportive partner with whom I have the best relationship ever!! God is good 🙏❤ So grateful!

I was doing my Occupational Therapy training in the early 1960s. There were no antidepressants then, people with depression went to mental hospitals and stayed for extended periods. Antidepressants were only just starting, such as MAOIs. In later years, early 2000s, I worked in a clinic for depressives and Bipolar sufferers for 20 yrs. I told the patients "thank heavens for antidepressants! " , hospital stays can be shortened to 1 to 3 weeks. They do work, and some people do need them for longer periods. It is the tranquillisers that are so terribly addictive. Our clinc doctors prescribe them for very shortt periods only. Avril, South Africa

That was excellent. In a culture now so dominated by disease and psychological, materialist models of human experience and behavior, it is so important to also realize that we are spiritual beings in a material world. Prayer, grieving, breathing techniques, socializing more, and listening to wise counsel have helped me not only to avoid medications (I had been on some many years ago) but to become a fuller, more loving and supportive human being.

No, it’s not funny that you ordered $643 dollars worth of unneeded items on Amazon in your “ambien state.” No, it’s not cute that that you ate an entire bag of Oreos and fell asleep with 4 of them in your mouth in your “ambien state.” 😒
