It’s good to see the Legislature putting pressure on the Department of
Human Services to expedite the release of psychiatric patients and
developmentally disabled residents who don’t require
institutionalization from state psychiatric hospitals. Now let’s see
some action.
At an Assembly budget committee hearing Tuesday, lawmakers criticized
the department’s failure to adequately address the long waiting list
for group homes or supervised apartments, the poor care being provided
at state psychiatric hospitals — problems outlined in the ongoing
Press series “Trouble at Ancora” — and the excessive overtime
allocation requested by Human Services.

As 'bad' as it is, psychiatry is still better than Scientology
because...
1. Psychiatrists don't practice medicine without a license (NOTs 34).
2. Psychiatrists don't use the court systems to harass and silence
former patients.
3. Psychiatrists don't dead agent and black op people who speak out
against them.
4. Psychoanalysis doesn't cost $500,000 or more.
5. Psychology doesn't promise it can cure homosexuality.
6. Psychiatrists don't dissuade people from getting proper medical
attention when they need it.
7. A psychiatrist won't hard-sell you for $5,000 to put up a "Think
for yourself" propaganda billboard in Germany.
8. Psychiatry isn't based on a silly science fiction story about
murdered Galactic Conferation citizens.
9. Most psychiatrists don't claim to have been run over by a freight
locomotive on Venus.
10. You don't have to do 50 hours of "Op Pro by Dup" when you go to a
psychiatrist.
11. Psychiatrists don't make you sign a billion year contract.
12. Psychiatrists don't send you to prison camp, where you are made to
do slave labor, when your "stats" are "down."
13. Psychiatrists don't call your home 9 times a day wanting to know
if you are "confirmed" for an event.
14. Psychiatrists don't make you disconnect from your parents, family,
and friends.
15. Psychiatrists don't pressure you into making a pro-psychiatry
"personal" web page and then secretly install censoring software from
the "Psychiatriac Patients Online" CD.
16. You don't have to max out your credit cards or take out a second
mortgage to get psychiatric help.
17. Psychiatrists don't help you in obtaining higher credit limits
from your credit card companies so you charge another $8,000 before
Thursday at 2.
18. You don't have to clap at a picture of Sigmund Freud and chant
"Hip Hip Hooray" three times.
19. Psychiatry honors counselor / patient confidentiality.
20. Psychiatry didn't lie to the state of Utah about its religious
affiliations.
