The 175th meeting of the American Psychiatric Association


Recommended Posts

This is to the key note speaker...

The quack medicine vendor is busier than ever. Money is plenty and he wants some of it. He uses mental suggestion and interests us. He is a specialist in distortion who probes into the ordinary sensations of
healthy people and perverts them into symptoms. Every billboard, newspaper, fence-rail, barn and rock thrusts out a suggestion of sickness as never before. The only vulnerable point to attack the vicious traffic is the advertising. If governments forbid that as they should, the next generation will be healthier and richer.

Written in 1918.

Andsome insight to an APA gathering

That article what little of it I bothered to read reminded me of a commercial of this red Haired lady holding a round card board smiley face up when people are talking to her and then she is at her doctors office and she asks the doctor if she is the only one with the problem and the doctor says your not alone! 2 out 3 people have the same problem and he recomends another medicine to go along with the anti-depressant she is already on. Then it shows her back at work and she says she is glad she can add the new medicine to help her with the progress she made on her old medicine. If she was making Progress on her old meds what made her think she needed anything else??? What also caught my attention was she works in a business of preparing food that is going to be delivered to home bound people and not one person working there is wearing any type of hair net while preparing the food!!! Name of the company is Good Works Kitchen. Maybe someone needs to contact them about hair nets...........JMHO
