“For the mind to believe in its own decisions, it must feel that it made those decisions without

Oh, one last thing, Kennedy was assassinated, for saying things the "opposition" did not appreciate, including his NOT escalating the Vietnam War. He was from an old Political family. Now, 62 years later, This President appears, from an old Economic family, he is NOT political,
he has tremendous advantage in his ability to negotiate the return to sanity of a sort by shifting from the black hat system, ( fraud, vote theft, projection of language, just plain political acts against WE the people who own this house, to the "White hat" system of the Founding Documents.
This President and Administration seem unhinged, but the fact is he is bleeding out the corruption by stopping the illicit flow of money. He is not a miracle worker, so your grasp of this is paramount. Corruption is funded by hidden money.
Like the drugs, the punishment must be greater than the crime, or it continues.
Great post sir! I knew it goes way back, but I didn't know about some of those things you mentioned. I'll check out that Vigilant citizen article now... Thank you!
"Happy pills" stifle your emotions and for most they never return. What I actually once said to a psych doc. No "happy pill" is going to "kill my ills" (taken from a song) being that I was dealing with an abusive, controlling husband but dared not say due to threats. I felt I was living a double life. The excellent student/worker by day and the "hell to pay" by night. It's almost a miracle that I didn't develop split personality.
...or becoming Bi-Polar. Cannabis is what lowered my anxiety and PTSD and depression during that decades long extreme mental anguish and kept my suicidal thoughts at bay. I must say.
The thyroid gland holds the key to depression. A hypo (depressed) function can be remedied by taking desiccated thyroids in pill form, preferably from pigs, because of human affinity with pigs. Thailand has been a great source for us, except when their pork population was decimated by the swine flu. Cattle thyroids are somewhat less effective. It is important to remedy your thyroid for a well-functioning mental state, also for heart problems and for weight loss. This is from my wife's 20-year experience. It didn't work for our daughters, because, being American and impatient, they overdosed. From her experience synthetic Syntroid is not advisable: it works against the heart. (I'm not a doctor).
Smoking natural cigarettes is a good way to relax, as long as you stay at 7 per day or less. This rule was given to my wife by a family doctor in Rotterdam. She has done this for 68 since she was 13. Her lungs are less healthy than mine (non-smoker), but not diseased.... According to Dr. Ardis and responsible research, nicotine is non-addictive (American chemical cigarette ingredients are), and it protects against the take-up of spike proteins. We use daily nicotine patches to protect against Covid spike proteins, which are being shedded by being near to vaccinated people. I informed readers of my blog (Enki's Optimist) about this particular benefit of nicotine in early 2020.
The SSRI is fueling the radical left violence and delusional behavior the shooters, the explosion of people who are unsure about the body they were born with. In order to stop people from feeling a normal human emotion, they turn their patients into walking zombies who have no feelings.
Great article Fox! I wish more people understood this, even though it goes back many decades.
The Dead Kennedys were singing about this stuff back in 1982, and I'm sure it goes back way before that too. By the late seventies, I was already aware that everything "they" say is just bought and paid for bullshit. Fake science with occasional truth, but never "the whole truth", and sometimes outright lies peddled as truth.
I hope it's OK to post some lyrics here. Both of these are from the Dead Kennedys album "Plastic Surgery Disasters". It's from 1982, but it's still just as true today as it was then. If not more so...
This article is an embarrassment to anyone with an IQ over the med bar. If I hadn’t had the respite of medication, I would be dead. The 1st time I could get up! To function- I had 3 kids. I feel this article, or whatever this is, is operating in a vacuum OR baiting the reader, like me, to respond. God help me
Are you aware that we (the USA) and New Zealand are the only two countries that allow drug ads on TV? I think those ads should stopped. Nobody should ever have to "ask your doctor" about a treatment. The doctor should already know.
In relation to your experience with meds, first of all, sorry to hear about it and I hope you're over it and fully healed by now. But, in a way, it parallels my story with covid...
I had covid when Omicron was the prevalent strain. A home test confirmed it was covid, but I couldn't get any Ivermectin... So I took some vitamins, zinc, and aspirin, as described by the FLCCC protocol. I was better in three days, with a slight cough that lingered for a week after that.
But, here's the hook. If I was able to get Ivermectin, I would now be telling you how great the Ivermectin worked and how I was better in three days. I hope you can see the point I'm making here... There's a parallel to your opinion about the meds you were on... I hope you're back at 100% nowadays, cheers!
Subject: Request for Accountability and Support in London's Tragic Case
Dear [Recipient's Name],
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to request your assistance in seeking accountability from the medical professionals and pharmaceutical companies involved in the tragic case of my daughter, London Izabella-Ryén Gadd. At just 12 years old, London was prescribed medications without adequate oversight, and her condition deteriorated significantly due to the emergency room's inadequate pediatric care.
On the day of her tragic incident, London was administered fentanyl, and I have come to understand that only 17% of emergency rooms in the United States are equipped to handle pediatric cases, raising serious concerns about the quality of care she received. I believe that this negligence and lack of proper training contributed to the devastating outcome.
I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to share her complete story and medical records with you, as your insights could be invaluable in understanding the circumstances surrounding her case and advocating for the necessary accountability.
Additionally, I want to highlight the deeply troubling issue of prescribing practices for Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) and the responsibility of pharmaceutical companies, particularly Eli Lilly, in light of London’s tragic loss. The pharmaceutical industry, driven by profit, often prioritizes financial gain over patient safety, leading to devastating consequences. My daughter was prescribed SSRIs without adequate consideration of her individual needs or the potential negative effects of these medications. Despite my concerns and requests for proper treatment, the care she received was inadequate, ultimately resulting in her untimely death.
Just 18 hours before her passing, London reached out to her counselor for help, expressing her distress and need for immediate support. Unfortunately, her cries went unanswered, as the counselor failed to conduct a wellness check or reach out to anyone for assistance.
On the day we took her to the hospital, London vomited most of the medication she had taken. Despite this, the hospital staff did not take appropriate action to save her after she ingested the medication and subsequently vomited around 80% of it. In a moment of panic, she screamed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it," highlighting her regret and desperation. The autopsy revealed that only 2-3 pills were detected in her system when her blood was taken at 10:30 PM. Medical reports indicated that it had been 2 hours since she ingested the medication, which contradicts the timing of her vomiting, as the pills were still whole and had not broken down in her system.
After the ambulance arrived at the hospital at 11:05 PM, we signed the transfer papers at 11:18 PM. There was a delay in putting London in the ambulance, and she subsequently seized at 12:35 AM. Instead of addressing this critical situation, I pleaded with the doctor to pump her stomach and administer activated charcoal. The doctor dismissed my concerns, stating that stomach pumping was outdated and that they likely didn’t have charcoal available in the hospital. I inquired about the potential heart-related side effects of the medication she had taken, specifically tachycardia and other adverse reactions. The doctor assured us that it wouldn’t be an issue, but moments later, London went into cardiac arrest.
Before we spoke to the doctor, she had already been administered three doses of fentanyl, which ultimately contributed to her cardiac arrest. We have text messages and screenshots timestamping our discussions with the doctor regarding this information. Additionally, we learned from various doctors and social workers at the hospital that the entire ER staff was terminated following this incident involving London.
In Michigan, laws often protect doctors rather than the patients they serve. We pay their salaries, yet they do not listen to our concerns or respect our wishes regarding our children’s care. My daughter was terrified and confused, believing that medical intervention would save her. She didn’t want to die; she was just a child who trusted the system and did not know that this would be the outcome. I also blame the SSRIs for altering her thoughts.
The narrative surrounding SSRIs is riddled with misinformation. We trusted physicians and psychiatrists who recommended these drugs, often without fully disclosing their risks. SSRIs are classified as black box drugs; however, they remain on the market despite a lack of thorough research validating their safety. The discussion around SSRIs has intensified, particularly after several tragic mass school shootings. As more research emerges, concerns are growing about the potential link between SSRIs and violent behavior. Advocates argue that these medications, often prescribed for depression and anxiety, may have unforeseen side effects that exacerbate feelings of agitation or hostility in certain individuals. This has led to calls for a comprehensive examination of psychiatric medications' roles in violent incidents, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and assessment when prescribing these drugs, especially to young and vulnerable populations.
In October 2023, the psychiatrist at the Pine Rest facility prescribed my daughter a starting dose of 5 mg of Prozac. However, just less than eight months later, in July 2024, he increased her dosage to 20 mg, which is the adult starting dose. Considering London was only 12 years old and very petite, I found it alarming that she was placed on such a strong, mind-altering medication without regard for her age or size. We were told she would be prescribed only 10 mg, but I discovered a month ago from the medical records that the prescription was actually for 20 mg.
Throughout this process, I was repeatedly assured that she would only be prescribed 10 mg. After we took her off Prozac in October 2023 due to her discomfort, the psychiatrist insisted on trying it again in July 2024, claiming we hadn’t given it enough time to take effect. He assured me multiple times that Prozac was the safest drug available. However, he never mentioned the black box warning associated with it, nor did he inform me that he was actually prescribing a higher dose than we had previously discussed.
During both of London’s admissions to Pine Rest, the psychiatrist stated that she would need to be on some form of medication for a few days before they could consider her for discharge. This led me to believe that her release was contingent upon her being placed on medication. I had informed the psychiatrist that we were using vitamins to help with her mood, which seemed to be beneficial.
When it came time for her discharge, the nurse who assisted us was in training, with someone supervising her. They handed us the discharge paperwork without engaging in much discussion about the potential side effects of the medication or the black box warning. It felt rushed, and I left the facility feeling unsettled about the entire process.
Later, when I requested London’s medical records from Pine Rest in October 2024, I was shocked to discover that she had communicated to the staff her thoughts about taking medication to overdose. This critical information was never shared with me or anyone else in our family. I had been led to believe that everything would be confidential unless she posed a risk of harm to herself or others, making this omission even more concerning. The medical negligence created a devastating environment that contributed to her tragic fate.
There are several grounds for potential class action litigation against pharmaceutical companies, including:
1. **Misrepresentation of Drug Safety**: Pharmaceutical companies often mislead the public about the safety and effectiveness of SSRIs, downplaying risks and side effects.
2. **Failure to Conduct Thorough Research**: The lack of rigorous testing before releasing these medications undermines public trust and safety.
3. **Corruption within the Pharmaceutical Industry**: Reports indicate that pharmaceutical companies have paid millions to investigators to validate their drugs as safe, creating significant conflicts of interest.
4. **Negligence in Prescription Practices**: Inappropriate dosages were prescribed, including an adult starting dose for my daughter, contributing to her tragic outcome.
5. **Inadequate Response from Healthcare Providers**: Medical professionals failed to heed my warnings and requests for appropriate interventions, despite clear signs of distress my daughter exhibited.
The alarming statistics surrounding mental health—1 in 5 children are depressed, and medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death in our nation—underscore the urgency of this situation. It is estimated that medical injuries are the third leading cause of death in America, highlighting the critical need for improved patient safety measures. My daughter walked into the hospital fine after taking medication, yet she was not treated with the care and urgency she deserved.
I urge you to consider these issues seriously and advocate for accountability within the pharmaceutical industry. The alarming rise in mental health issues among children, particularly linked to medication and the influence of social media, requires immediate action. We must ensure that no other families endure this pain. It’s time for Eli Lilly and others to face accountability for their actions and for us to push for transparency in healthcare.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
I’m very sorry for your loss. I am confused in reading your paper to understand 1) how old was your daughter when she passed away? 2) the beginning of your daughter’s addiction began at what age and why? It sounds like there is a period of time which passed between pt A and pt B? And - forgive yourself. We, as parents, have to allow our kids to fall when they fall, and shine when they shine. Loss is the ultimate pain.
This post completely missed the main source of emotionally damaged adults, and that is the beginning of where they came. Damaged dysfunctional abusive neglectful undisciplining and/or evil parents or caretakers are the cause. This Always begins in childhood. Adverse Childhood Experiences. NPD individuals are almost always a hopeless case. They live in a delusional state of self-deception that no amount of logic or proof can crack.
'Don't dwell on things you can't control'.
Turn them over to someone who can; a supreme being.
In the mid 1930's Jesus appeared to St.Faustina in Poland to be his "secretary" to promote
the Divine Mercy devotion, and one day sister Faustina was trying to do something but was
unable to do it, and He said just place your trust in Me and directed her to have a painting
of Him with the phrase "Jesus I Trust In You" lettered across the base of the painting.
Antidepressants don’t work because they’re attempting to heal a spiritual condition from the physical perspective.
They will never work.

I see the first message was too long, so here's one at time:
"Trust Your Mechanic" by Dead Kennedys:
TV invents a disease
You think you have
So, you buy our drugs
And soon, you depend on them
Pain is in your mind
Gotcha comin' back for more
Again and again and again and again
Gonna rip you off, rip you off
Doctor says you need surgery now
You're feelin' good till the side effects
Fuck up something else
You're ensnared by the medicine man
Paying up the ass again and again
Gonna rip you off
Trust your mechanic to mend your car
Bring it into his garage
He tightens and loosens a few spare parts
One thing's fixed, another falls apart
And the rich eat you
A magazine says
Your face don't look quite right
Unless you wear
Our brand-new wonder cream tonight
Never look right again
Unless you grease your skin
Again and again and again and again
Gonna rip you off
Told you're depressed
So, of course, you see the psychiatrist
Right when you hit your neuroses' roots
He confuses you
He fucks your head up worse
Gotcha feeling helpless
You're comin' back for more again and again
Gonna rip you off, rip you off!
Trust your mechanic to make you well
You're seeing an awful lot of him now
The quicker he makes your life fall apart
The more money you put in his pockets
Two, three, four
Trust your mechanic to plug your holes
Trust him to make more somewhere else
Trust your mechanic, he'll always come through
And rip you off
"Government Flu" by Dead Kennedys
We got a drug
We're gonna try it out on you
Won't make you die
It'll get you just a little bit sick
Got a head cold
Got a chest cold
And it's three days old
(Goin' on forever)
Make you hazy
Make you lazy
Drive you crazy
For days and days and days and days and days
And years
Barely got the time now
To stay on the job
Double up the dosage in your water supply
Make you even sicker 'til you're slippin' away
Getting all depressed
It's getting all your friends
You can't get it up
For nothing that'll rock the boat
The government flu
The government flu
The government flu
Slip it abroad
Keep a-slowin' down the USSR
But meanwhile
We'll keep an eye
On what it's doin' to you
Got a head cold
Got a chest cold
And it's three days old
(Goin' on forever)
Make you hazy
Make you lazy
Drive you crazy
For days and days and days and days and days
And days and days and days and days and days
And days and days and days and days and days
And years
The government flu
The government flu
The government
Flew through you

Additionally, we learned from various doctors and social workers at the hospital that the entire ER staff was terminated following this incident involving London.
In Michigan, laws often protect doctors rather than the patients they serve. We pay their salaries, yet they do not listen to our concerns or respect our wishes regarding our children’s care. My daughter was terrified and confused, believing that medical intervention would save her. She didn’t want to die; she was just a child who trusted the system and did not know that this would be the outcome. I also blame the SSRIs for altering her thoughts.
The narrative surrounding SSRIs is riddled with misinformation. We trusted physicians and psychiatrists who recommended these drugs, often without fully disclosing their risks. SSRIs are classified as black box drugs; however, they remain on the market despite a lack of thorough research validating their safety. The discussion around SSRIs has intensified, particularly after several tragic mass school shootings. As more research emerges, concerns are growing about the potential link between SSRIs and violent behavior. Advocates argue that these medications, often prescribed for depression and anxiety, may have unforeseen side effects that exacerbate feelings of agitation or hostility in certain individuals. This has led to calls for a comprehensive examination of psychiatric medications' roles in violent incidents, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and assessment when prescribing these drugs, especially to young and vulnerable populations.
In October 2023, the psychiatrist at the Pine Rest facility prescribed my daughter a starting dose of 5 mg of Prozac. However, just less than eight months later, in July 2024, he increased her dosage to 20 mg, which is the adult starting dose. Considering London was only 12 years old and very petite, I found it alarming that she was placed on such a strong, mind-altering medication without regard for her age or size. We were told she would be prescribed only 10 mg, but I discovered a month ago from the medical records that the prescription was actually for 20 mg.
Throughout this process, I was repeatedly assured that she would only be prescribed 10 mg. After we took her off Prozac in October 2023 due to her discomfort, the psychiatrist insisted on trying it again in July 2024, claiming we hadn’t given it enough time to take effect. He assured me multiple times that Prozac was the safest drug available. However, he never mentioned the black box warning associated with it, nor did he inform me that he was actually prescribing a higher dose than we had previously discussed.
During both of London’s admissions to Pine Rest, the psychiatrist stated that she would need to be on some form of medication for a few days before they could consider her for discharge. This led me to believe that her release was contingent upon her being placed on medication. I had informed the psychiatrist that we were using vitamins to help with her mood, which seemed to be beneficial.
When it came time for her discharge, the nurse who assisted us was in training, with someone supervising her. They handed us the discharge paperwork without engaging in much discussion about the potential side effects of the medication or the black box warning. It felt rushed, and I left the facility feeling unsettled about the entire process.
Later, when I requested London’s medical records from Pine Rest in October 2024, I was shocked to discover that she had communicated to the staff her thoughts about taking medication to overdose. This critical information was never shared with me or anyone else in our family. I had been led to believe that everything would be confidential unless she posed a risk of harm to herself or others, making this omission even more concerning. The medical negligence created a devastating environment that contributed to her tragic fate.
There are several grounds for potential class action litigation against pharmaceutical companies, including:
1. **Misrepresentation of Drug Safety**: Pharmaceutical companies often mislead the public about the safety and effectiveness of SSRIs, downplaying risks and side effects.
2. **Failure to Conduct Thorough Research**: The lack of rigorous testing before releasing these medications undermines public trust and safety.
3. **Corruption within the Pharmaceutical Industry**: Reports indicate that pharmaceutical companies have paid millions to investigators to validate their drugs as safe, creating significant conflicts of interest.
4. **Negligence in Prescription Practices**: Inappropriate dosages were prescribed, including an adult starting dose for my daughter, contributing to her tragic outcome.
5. **Inadequate Response from Healthcare Providers**: Medical professionals failed to heed my warnings and requests for appropriate interventions, despite clear signs of distress my daughter exhibited.
The alarming statistics surrounding mental health—1 in 5 children are depressed, and medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death in our nation—underscore the urgency of this situation. It is estimated that medical injuries are the third leading cause of death in America, highlighting the critical need for improved patient safety measures. My daughter walked into the hospital fine after taking medication, yet she was not treated with the care and urgency she deserved.
I urge you to consider these issues seriously and advocate for accountability within the pharmaceutical industry. The alarming rise in mental health issues among children, particularly linked to medication and the influence of social media, requires immediate action. We must ensure that no other families endure this pain. It’s time for Eli Lilly and others to face accountability for their actions and for us to push for transparency in healthcare.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
Warm regards,
Forever London's Mom ❤️
I’m very sorry for your loss. I am confused in reading your paper to understand 1) how old was your daughter when she passed away? 2) the beginning of your daughter’s addiction began at what age and why? It sounds like there is a period of time which passed between pt A and pt B? And - forgive yourself. We, as parents, have to allow our kids to fall when they fall, and shine when they shine. Loss is the ultimate pain.
This post completely missed the main source of emotionally damaged adults, and that is the beginning of where they came. Damaged dysfunctional abusive neglectful undisciplining and/or evil parents or caretakers are the cause. This Always begins in childhood. Adverse Childhood Experiences. NPD individuals are almost always a hopeless case. They live in a delusional state of self-deception that no amount of logic or proof can crack.
Wrong. just-WRONG. Biology also plays a part. The origin is many, the reality is 100%. Die- take meds
