I checked with "Snopes" and here's what I found there:

Here's a disturbing quote I found by Dr. Eisenberg:
". . . the essence of physicianhood is putting the good of the patient first.
Just how far medicine has deviated from this principle is evident from a
single distressing fact:
'Patients with serious mental illness die 25 years earlier than the
general population.' (Parks et al. 2006).
They die from psychiatric, medical, and social neglect. If anything, the
problem is worsening (Saha et al 2007). Neglect leads to unrecognized and
untreated cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, to diabetes and its
complications, to infectious diseases including HIV, to substance abuse, and to
other diseases that afflict the ill-housed, the ill-fed, and the abandoned (Brown et
al. 1999; Brown et al. 2000; Osborn et al. 2007). Care of the severely mentally ill
should have been the focus of our professional careers; advocacy for their rights
should have been our role as citizens. Instead, we have engaged in solipsistic
debates about brain versus mind – about psychotherapy versus drugs – about
genes versus environment. Preoccupied with our theories and ourselves, we
abandoned the sickest patients."

The other quotes I found on the above link are equally disturbing, to me. What I read here is that this is more proof of the desensitizing of psychiatry, treating with drugs instead of intense personal therapy, without drugs. This knowledge is not surprising, but confirms my suspicions of the mainstream medical industry ... doctors, pharmacology, drug companies, scientists and seed companies (gmos), psychologists, and psychiatrists - they all seem to be great and wonderful "bedfellows" ... for money, power, greed, and fame. ~nrl
