Psychiatric drugs do not cure anything.  They are simply toxic chemicals that can mask a real medical condition – a condition that could be treated with non-drug methods - if one were to look for the actual causes.  Naturopathic doctor James Chappell explains that psychiatric drugs are prescribed for behavioral symptoms that are caused by such simple-to-handle conditions as dehydration, nutritional imbalance and exposure to toxic substances, to name a few.  Psychiatrists treat symptoms, not causes, with drugs whose side effects are usually interpreted by the psychiatrist as new psychiatric symptoms, necessitating yet another psychiatric drug.  Dr. Chappell's information on actual causes and how to treat them will help you avoid a potentially life-threatening ride on the psychiatric merry-go-round in today's 39-minute show.
