In 2006, a psychiatrist who wrote to the Journal of the American Medical Association about conflicts of interest among many of its authors heard back from an editor there. Conflict of interest? WTF?
So conflicted doctors hook your patients on drugs that fuck them up. So?
[In my practice, I see] young men who have breast lesions and abnormal breast development from atypical antipsychotics; [I see the results of financially motivated prescription] in sudden unexpected deaths, or “suds,” from psychiatric drugs in individuals who had no risk factors for sudden death; in tic and dyskinetic movement disorders in kids arbitrarily prescribed stimulants, and the huge weight gain and symptoms of type 2 diabetes in children and young adults who receive a sedative, such as quetiapine, for sleep.
So?
