Sami Timimi | Insane Psychiatry | Psychology Is Podcast 46

Dr. Sami Timimi is a practicing child psychiatrist in the UK, but his practice is in direct contrast to the dominant ideology in psychiatry. This insane and horribly problematic ideology is exactly what Dr. Nick and Dr. Sami deconstruct in this important conversation. Dr. Sami’s recent book is entitled Insane Medicine.

Peter Breggin!

[@mindyjoyfullplay5340]

I hold Dr. Timini in the highest regard. "Insane Medicine" was both healing to read, as a psych survivor, and provided further confirmation and enlightenment on the history and roots of psychiatry. A Brave, highly ethical, sensitve, and funny man.

It's about time SOMEONE stood up and did the right thing. How many lifes destroyed by these arrogant people who refuse to hear?

[@mohammedzulk8485]

A crime against humanity that has gone unnoticed.

[@stevekaylor5606]

Not by you and Peter Gotzsche!

[@stevekaylor5606]

Not by Peter Breggin either! @Peter-3282

[@kareendeveraux1847]

Thanks a lot for all the work you do! Humanity really needs another approach to the mental health topic! I've lost people (suicide) and a friend because of the false narratives psychology and psychiatry perpetuates nowadays. Because I don't have a degree in those fields, my opinion doesn't count... it's so important that insiders speak out about the problems. ❤️

[@Aquarius7172]

I love knowing that there are others out there with the same philosophy and ideas around mental health as the current model is outdated and corrupt. We need to go deeper into the depths of our soul and not deeper into padding the pharmaceutical industry’s pockets

[@stevekaylor5606]

The Standard of Care model is based on pessimistic-Freudian disease labeling, neurotoxic drugs or ECT and securing sad people as cash cows for the psychiatric-pharmaceutical co-franchise!

[@juliehorsley48]

Absolutely. There are crimes being committed and harm being done.

[@tg4796]

the mental health system drove me mad

[@TheDavveponken]

dito. I just wanted someone to talk to, instead I was persuaded there might be something wrong with my head and now after taking the pills, there is. But now there's no help to be found.

[@tg4796]

I hear you @@TheDavveponken

The Rumi quote is simply wonderful.

[@sointeresting3938]

It would be so important that talks such as these make their way to the general public. I am thinking of copying the link and pasting it on a few popular sites. It is crucial that this be viewed more widely.

[@Anna-wr3uy]

Nick thank you so much for this brilliant interview with Dr. Timimi. We need this, we need to wake up from this mass programming that is so disempowering and falsely accepted as truth. ❤

[@stevekaylor5606]

Zeitgist!

[@susankemppinen]

It would be wonderful if you interviewed Dr.Gabor Maté.He is wonderful

[@sointeresting3938]

What an incredibly insightful and interesting talk. Thank you!

[@daliagrigonyte6872]

thanks for having these conversations, this is the most important thing after food, and shelter. it is devastating tho how little views it has, it should have millions, if not billions of views as this kind of knowledge literally can change the world. but i guess you cant make things grow faster, everything takes its time, so do people in upgrading their understanding

[@michelleboles923]

What a fabulous interview! Thank you so much for all the helpful information.

[@Finne57]

We need to stick together. It's hardest to be someone in that position of feeling powerless to a crushing dominant ideology. But there are glimpses of hope when we can sustain different ideas in some kind of communities - we are not broken.

[@lisamogs6470]

Fantastic interview. Thank you

[@susankemppinen]

A wonderful talk , so appreciated. I have this feeling too. Blessings and thanks

[@LadyLuck8_4]

Midway he’s referring to that Hegelian dialectic - problem reaction solution and it is so prevalent in many areas where unscrupulous profits need to be made.

[@svetavinogradova4243]

Bravo Dr Timimi! ! In a society where punishment is viewed as violence, the only way to control unruly kids is chemical poisons.

[@stevekaylor5606]

Have them sing in a chorus, every day after school - they must develop mental + emotional cathexes!

[@svetavinogradova4243]

@@stevekaylor5606 Their mothers have such attitude that the kids cannot be made to do anything, to comply for them means to lose themselves.

[@stevekaylor5606]

Assign many of them to stay after school - for happy clapping, stomping and laughing classes. Then, singing in a chorus would come later!@@svetavinogradova4243

[@kristinmeyer489]

Psychiatry is a "hand" you DON'T want ON YOU.

[@stevekaylor5606]

Anyone can develop a mental + emotional dedication, a cathexis - which is what mental health is!

[@kristinmeyer489]

A massive public mea culpa from the APA, to ameliorate the harm they've done!!! THEY HAVE TO OPENLY ADMIT THEY WERE WRONG. WTF ARE THEY ALL NARCISSISTS, TOO?????

[@ryan-gp3zq]

Psychistry killed me

[@tmtb80]

We need RD Lang taught today!

[@johnnyecoman9121]

I think poets know implicitly how culture constructs experience.

[@stevekaylor5606]

Dante was someone who improved culture; psychiatry denounces human potential!

[@tracykatrinaobrien6998]

Ita an amazing book

Forcing someone to take neurotoxic drugs is 2nd Degree Assault!

One can at least be: Imago Viva Dei and practice agapeic love - which is what mental health is!
