Psychiatrists are experts at detecting delusions in psychotic patients. What are delusions? By definition, a delusion is a fixed, false belief that is resistant to reason or confrontation with actual fact. For example, paranoid patients may be convinced that people are intent on harming them when they are perfectly safe.
Although psychiatry judges who is delusional and who is not, it fails to perceive some obvious delusions within its own paradigm. Today's article highlights these blatant delusions . . . beginning with its delusions of grandeur. . .

Psychiatry’s Delusions
Fixed, false beliefs that keep psychiatry stuck
The delusions that permeate psychiatry would be laughable if they weren't so dangerous. Only brainwashed sycophants could maintain such a steadfast refusal to acknowledge and acquire the tools necessary for true healing.
How are psychiatrists different from the pharmaceutical reps who offer them free pens and a lunch? Not much. They have all colluded with the pharmaceutical empire that profits from customers' medication dependency. Through acquiescence and silence, psychiatrists put profit above protection.
Here are psychiatry's own delusions:
Delusions of grandeur: psychiatry believes its approach is superior above other treatment approaches, therefore, its "standard of care" is superior. Any psychiatrist who dares to challenge its standard of care is practicing outside the standard of care, which is automatically inferior care.
Holistic and integrative psychiatrists practice outside the standard of care, therefore, they should be punished or ignored for providing inferior care. Even if their patients heal, come off medications, and become doctors, holistic treatment remains outside the standard of care, and by definition, substandard care.
Delusions of infallibility: psychiatry believes that successful psychotropic medical withdrawal can be achieved by doing it "slowly." When this approach results in relapse, the psychiatrist uses the opportunity to emphasize the importance of medication compliance because the illness is chronic and incurable.
It's never the fault of psychiatry's ignorance of medication withdrawal or mental illness because medications are the best treatment available anywhere in the world. Therefore, failures are never the fault of the field, but of the disease.
If a holistic and integrative approach is able to help patients heal from their mental illness and withdraw safely from psychotropic medications, it is either a miracle, an accident, or a lie. Mental illnesses should be treated with psychotropic medications. Period.
Delusions of persecution: when nutritional supplements interfere with psychotropic medications, psychiatry believes in eliminating the competing supplement in order to continue psychotropic medication treatment.
Any patient who chooses to do otherwise is noncompliant and in danger of being poisoned by the nutritional supplement because supplements are toxic, while medications are healing.
Delusions of omniscience: although psychiatry neglects to train psychiatrists on functional medicine and the connection between nutrition and mental health, supplement companies must label all products with "consult with a medical professional."
Physicians have strong negative opinions about the use of supplements despite knowing little about them. Medical professionals are not aware of any research on the functional use of nutrition for treating mental illness. Therefore, there is none. As medical intuitives, they just know nutritional supplements are bad for business, er I mean, patients.
If patients get better through proper diet, supplements, or energy medicine, they probably didn't have a real mental illness in the first place. All real mental illnesses are chronic and incurable.
It is my hope that psychiatry will take a look at its own insanity and gain some urgently needed insights from fellow colleagues in other alternative fields of healing. Otherwise, we psychiatrists will become an extinct specialty in the future. No one can stand between truth and its outcomes forever.
Have a great week!
