In this page you'll find links to articles and critical
documents on biological-psychiatry. Biological-psychiatry's official theory describes
psychological or personal problems as having a biological origin caused by genetic or
chemical 'imbalances' to be corrected by drugs and other interventions like
Electro-Convulsive Therapy [ECT] or insulin shock. These widely used but controversial
methods in official medicine have been for many years amply invalidated, showing clearly
that they are absolutely unscientific, that they tend to alienate patient's
rights, are
unable to solve the problems presented, are dangerous for one's health, and are submissive
to pharmaceutical companies. The need for a drastic reduction in the power of the
medical-chemical-industrial lobby is an important task to ensure that all people have the
right to positive mental health, and to re-direct science's energies towards therapeutic
practices which are focused upon the social and familial systems which are generating the
personal suffering, instead of upon erroneous and misguided efforts to eliminate symptoms
of social distress generated in individuals.

Against
Prozac - The decision in familys lawsuit against Prozac rests with jury. The
family blames the popular antidepressant for a murder-suicide.
Below is the time-line
presented to the jury in the Forsyth v. Eli Lilly Trial. It was presented during
closing arguments by the plaintiffs. It lists Lilly's internal documents. The plaintiffs
allege that it shows that Lilly knew about Prozac-induced suicidality and violence (even
before Prozac was approved for marketing in the United States) and that this was withheld
from the public.
March 4, 1999 - Press Release - The Federal Court Jury in Forsyth v. Eli Lilly heard
opening arguments today. The case involves the March 4, 1993, homicide/suicide of June
Forsyth and Bill Forsyth, Sr. Bill Sr. had been taking Prozac for ten days when he killed
his wife and himself. In arguments which lasted over one hour per side, the lawyers for
each side gave their overview of the evidence. Forsyth counsel, Andy Vickery, gave the
jury a lengthy chronology about the potential relationship between serotonin and suicide,
and suggested that Prozac, which impacts on the body's serotonergic system, can cause a
percentage of people to become violent or suicidal, that Lilly knew this, and that it
failed to warn American physicians.
For detailed information concerning plaintiffs allegations
against Eli Lilly see http://justiceseekers.com/prozacinfo.htm
On this page you will see a complaint for the Christian case which allegations against Eli
Lilly are identical to those of the Forsyths'.
