Here’s a YouTube video of dan schnieder threatening one of his young actresses with a taser https://youtu.be/8vlw7IYmBVw

@9217 Thanks for the post. I see from the comments this is new material to many here. It should be a background history course #101.

This is where SRA moved from low tech voodoo to hospital level high technology. White labs and with white nurses and doctors in white shoes. Sargent and Ree are all too familiar to me. Sargents eyes burned, he could light fires just looking. Ree smoked his pipe constantly. Talked (lied) all the time about, "this isn't going to hurt".

Intending to free his patients from their demons, he ended up turning many into zombies.

Basically, he re-traumatised patients suffering from post-traumatic stress.

He suffered from depression himself, but I guess he never asked for a treatment with electroshocks, let alone lobotomization.

My impression is that once you start scratching at the surface of psychiatry and psychotherapy, you see a world of horror unfolding, still today.

Remember the children in the Hampstead case in Britain retracted their initial accusations of being victims of sexual abuse after they were treated at Tavistock.

The 'renowned' psychiatrist Otto Kernberg, for many a guru of the profession, suggested that sexual abuse survivors should forgive themselves for 'seducing' the perp.

This is not being discussed in the discipline, and everbody who tries is treated as someone who is slightly deranged.

'Renowned' psychiatrists at prestigious universities have voiced the opinion that pedophiles won't do any harm to children. Well known pedophiles, like the former head f the British 'Pedophile Information Exchange' took part in conferences. Psychotherapists like Elizabeth Loftus of the 'False Memory Syndrome Foundation' support the notion that survivors who suffered from amnesia and later recalled the crimes, are either lying or have been influenced by their therapists. Some Forensic professors still today say there amnesia of traumatic incidents or DID don't exist.

It's a deep, deep rabbit hole.

Great read. Thanx for posting.

The Chelmsford Clinic in Australia used DST, putting people with mental illnesses in a coma for weeks at a time. Patients lay naked on beds and were fed through tubes and were sometimes given convulsive electrical shock treatment while in a coma. More than a dozen patients died while in a coma or shortly after their release from the hospital. Other patients at Chelmsford claimed they were inflicted with brain damage and paralysis. Barry Hart, a former patient, and Jan Eastgate, president of the Citizens Committee on Human Rights (CCHR), backed by the Church of Scientology fought hard to bring Chelmsford to justice. Dr Bailey ended up taking his own life, blaming the scientologists.

The DST was Bailey's invention, a cocktail of barbiturates to put patients into a coma lasting up to 39 days, while also administering electro-convulsive therapy (ECT). Bailey likened the treatment to switching off a television; his self-developed theory was that the brain, by shutting down for an extended period, would "unlearn" habits that led to depression, addiction and other psychiatric conditions. Bailey claimed to have learnt DST from psychiatrists in Britain and Europe, though it was later found that only a mild variant was used there, sedating traumatised ex-soldiers for a few hours at a time, not the median 14 days under which Bailey and his colleague Dr John Herron subjected their 1127 DST patients at Chelmsford between 1963 and 1979.[3]

I clicked on the link and the first thing that stood out were his eyes--large, dark, evil personified. I once met someone whose eyes I could only describe as 'evil'. I later found out he had just been released from prison because he'd murdered someone. Dr Sargant's eyes are much worse. They made my stomach turn.

Oy very will you look at this,

"... he rounded out his education by spending a year at Harvard Medical School under a Rockefeller Fellowship."

We are ruled by psychopaths

This is an amazing article and absolutely is related to pizzagate which also encompasses ritual abuse and CIA/IC abuses, as exemplified in this wonderful thread: Alefantis-Silsby-CIA Connection Summarized

Excerpt from @sharpedge42 's amazing article:

"A 14-year-old girl enters a psychiatric hospital to receive treatment for an eating disorder. She is placed under the care of a world renowned psychiatrist named Dr. William Sargant. She didn’t know yet that the doctor’s treatment methods were the stuff of nightmares. British actress Celia Imrie wrote of her experience under Dr. Sargant’s care. She describes the doctor, “Sargant still features in my nightmares. He was brusque and cold, and he never talked directly to you. Instead he issued orders over your head, talking about ‘this one’ and ‘that one’. But that was preferable to making eye contact with this proud, incorrigible man with his dark, hard, evil eyes. I have only seen eyes like that on a couple of other people in my life.”

"The man with the hard, evil eyes administered massive doses of potent drugs and frequent electroshocks to her brain. This was his treatment regimen for an eating disorder. Ms. Imrie found herself unable to perform even the simplest tasks. She was a zombie. Ms. Imrie was eventually cured of her eating disorder but not due to Dr. Sargant’s treatment. It seems that he had little interest in treating psychological disorders; he was a mind bender."
