Who Flipped the Script?!
The next victims were the mentally ill; Vera Sharav’s 2022 speech at Nuremberg.
A 19 yr. old young man just suicided…a handgun to the head. This one caught my attention. What makes this story more poignant is that his cousin, another 19 yr old suicided via a shotgun to his head…same age… on the same property 20 yrs. ago.
Twenty yrs apart to the month. They had never met. Too many coincidences…
What else tied these events together?
I know the surviving sister of the older cousin…the 1st one to take his life…very well.
When her brother died, both parents checked out hard…one into drugs and alcohol…the other into religion. They left her to fend for herself.
Actually, where she was concerned, it wasn’t quite that simple. The parents had been relying on her for years…to help raise, home-school the two of them, to care for the house, the farm and animals, as well as to shore up the parents through their many violent upheavals. Though she was just a couple of years older than her brother, she was installed as a substitute parent… and the family hoist.
They were relying on her to be their rock as they grieved….interminably…as neither parent was willing to face the contributing factors that led up to his suicide.
She did what she could until it seriously threatened her own equilibrium. She was at her breaking point and called for them to get professional counseling.
We met a few years later. Behind her kind smile and confident-becoming demeanor was an ocean of tears. No one had given her more than superficial help. That’s how we became friends. She’s come a long way…full circle now.
So we’ve been talking.
Not your ordinary story… This young man was from a great family and had just finished his first year at aviation school. He was popular in his small Kentucky community, the local school, and best known for his kind nature.
Becoming a pilot was his dream. He was a promising aviation student until he had a setback. He had been unusually stressed at the holidays, changing apartments, studying during his Christmas break and helping to take up the slack at home helping his folks with his older brother. He’d always helped with ‘Josh’ who was diagnosed as autistic and later received a diagnosis of bi-polar disorder. Due to the degree of his impairment, he will likely never live independently. But he can hold down a simple job with a little support.
So our young man was juggling school, getting out on his own for the first time and making a life, while torn in regards to Josh’s needs as well as his parents. The parents should have been retired by now, but the medical bills kept coming. Retirement was out of the question.
On this morning, he was supposed to head back to school, but, in a shock move, he chose instead to find the key to his dad’s gun cabinet, remove a hand gun and end his life.
His mother knew that her son was depressed, and had worked with him that summer trying to revive his interests in hiking and traveling, but he continued to be withdrawn. Depression…nothing more, she thought.
But the doctors had ruled otherwise…a mistake in her eyes.
Around Christmas time, he had what the doctors called a psychotic break. He was hospitalized for 10 days and put on a regimen of meds that only seemed to make things worse.
Against the family’s wishes and against their better judgment, the doctors assigned the official diagnosis of bi-polar disorder, unspecified. That diagnosis put an end to his dream of becoming a pilot. On a personal level he was gutted.
The morning of his suicide, he was headed back to regular college…not aviation school. He had tried to adapt, attending for a semester. He joined a fraternity and made a lot of friends in a short time. The funeral home was crowded with them, in fact.
The thing that stands out is that the doctors diagnosed him based on his older brother’s diagnosis…
They called it hereditary. Having dealt with this with Josh, the parents disagreed. They were vastly different kids. This young man was full of promise and showed no history of problems leading up to the ‘psychotic break’. Nor was he a substance abuser. We don’t know yet what meds he was on as a result, but my friend began to reminisce about the last year of her brothers life.
His antidepressants were not working as hoped. She watched the meds shut him down…her otherwise lively, musically inclined, unstoppable, often unruly little brother. He struggled against the effects of the various meds.
Doctors would then go on to try ‘cocktail’ after ‘cocktail’ of meds to achieve the effect they wanted. She remembered the day, that he was dragging the left side of his body…unable to fully feel or control his body.
She knew, but couldn’t articulate, that he was losing hope and did not want to continue life this way… All the kids hated being on these meds!
Parents were coerced into the diagnoses and the treatments. And the kids were becoming increasing incapacitated and unable to describe what they were going through.
I realized I carried some pieces of that puzzle…
About 20 yrs ago, I learned from a forensic nurse friend, that the AMA had arbitrarily decided that "80% of our kids were 'mentally ill' and that it was imperative to identify them and get them on medications asap."
A contrived and manufactured epidemic of mental illness…
The AMA attempted to railroad bills through both the House and Senate. Essentially the legislation would impose these drug protocols on kids AND REMOVE THE PARENTS RIGHT OF REFUSAL!
All with no public knowledge and no public debate. The bills were approved in one body and nearly passed the 2nd when one person of conscience leaked the information to the press. There was an outcry. It was dropped…for the time being, but here's where it gets interesting. They have groomed the schools to act as though the legislation had passed. An outright fabrication.
If the parent or child refuses medication, they have devised a work-around whereby the 'unruly' child is sent home and not allowed to return to school until they have met with the doctor and started on medications. So this is how they get their way...
Further, (from the horse's mouth) school nurses are financially incentivized to enroll as many kids as possible on meds. "They pay us for every kid we enroll and, you know, schools ALWAYS need more money!" a school nurse told me gleefully.
And…from the hospital-employed administrator of counseling for the greater Indianapolis school districts, the umbrella of DSM-5 codes enlarges year by year to encompass as many kids as possible. That program is ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. I watched in dismay as she went from being an intelligent, compassionate counselor to an administrator who was totally obsessed with maximizing profits. Care be damned! She was well incentivized for her task, as well. This woman was my patient (Thai massage) for 18 yrs. I watched it all go down.
So you've got most of these poor kids on dangerous (to growing brains) cradle-to-grave medications despite whatever outcry from responsible doctors…who were dispatched along the same lines of anyone who disagreed with fauci.
My 1st husband was one of the 1st ritalin kids (mensa member, musical savant, preachers kid) who became a meth addict as he aged out…the predicted effect of ritalin as the brain matured...the outcome was foreseen early on..
Adderall leads to heroin abuse (also sexual enhancement-check the kids forums) These kids have been on drugs most of their lives.
Society blames the kids, but the medical establishment engineered this crisis and simply points to other causes. Problem is…They always knew!
I remember a time when these diagnoses were to be avoided at all costs. They would follow a young person to college and hinder them as they entered the working world, making good jobs off-limits, insurance hard to get, etc. Every other means of helping the child would be employed before taking this weighty step.
Who flipped the script…and more importantly…WHY?
***************
A psychotic “break” is an episode of psychosis in which an individual loses touch with reality. It’s characterized by disruptions in thoughts and perception, making it difficult to distinguish what’s real and what isn’t, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).
Psychosis is not a diagnosable condition in itself, but it may be a symptom of a serious mental health condition, such as schizophrenia, severe bipolar disorder or severe depression. An episode of psychosis may also occur on its own, without an underlying diagnosis.
Unless there is an underlying condition, psychotic episodes are often temporary, resolving after 24 to 72 hours, says Michele Leno, Ph.D., a psychologist in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Many people respond well to treatment, and can avoid experiencing additional episodes of psychosis, notes the Center for Addiction and Mental Health.
Who Is at Risk of a Psychotic Episode?
“Anyone can experience a psychotic break,” says Dr. Leno. In fact, over the course of a lifetime, three in 100 people will experience an episode of psychosis, according to NAMI. There are certain populations that have an increased likelihood of a psychotic break. These include:
Teenagers and young adults: Due to hormonal fluctuations impacting the brain during puberty, teens and young adults may have an increased risk of psychosis.
People with a genetic link: Having a family history of psychosis may elevate an individual’s risk, says Dr. Springer.

Beautiful that you are sharing your experiential life within and without the medical system 💕💕💕. I’m grateful to have discovered you in Sasha’s comments this evening.
Invaluable information you bring to others here.
The biggest is a trust in one’s self.
Thank you for sharing
Debra, I thank you first, for sharing this important story. I’m so sorry for the loss you and your friend have suffered. It strikes very hard and deeply for me. I know how cruel and unjust the “system” is- firsthand. I continue to have hope we find the best ways looking forward, to manage and treat the poor souls who cannot always speak logically for themselves. I pray that the evils which encompass the ruling class be eliminated promptly and entirely. I know that forgiveness is important in religious practice. Yet, I can no longer accept that evil deserved forgiveness. I will never attempt to play God. Those who have and continue to try, will have their own final judgment to contend with. Thank you also, for sharing of yourself. Peace, love and warm wishes for all of you!
