Why The Name Psych Myth Busters?
Because The Idea That Psychiatry Helps People Is A Myth.
- Psychiatry is greatly responsible for a decline in religious and moral values in our culture. In 1940, British psychiatrist John Rawlings Rees, a co founder of the World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH), addressed a National Council of Mental Hygiene stating: “Since the last world war we have made a useful attack upon a number of professions. The two easiest of them naturally are the teaching profession and the Church.…”
- Since 1952, there has been a 234% increase in the number of mental disorders. From birth to grave, there is a mental disorder that can be billed to treat. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) is the American Psychiatric Association's standard reference for psychiatry which includes over 450 different definitions of mental disorders. With that many, anyone is bound to have one!
- Another co-founder of the WFMH, Canadian psychiatrist G. Brock Chisholm, reinforced this master plan in 1945 by targeting religious values and calling for psychiatrists to free “the race…from its crippling burden of good and evil.”
- There are no blood tests, X rays, brain scans or any other medical test to confirm any of these mental disorders. Their criteria are based on psychiatric opinion only.
- Today, 41 million Americans are taking antidepressants that are fraudulently marketed as correcting a chemical imbalance in the brain that allegedly causes depression. There is no test to prove chemical imbalance.
- 20 million children worldwide are on psychiatric drugs, which have been acknowledged by international drug regulatory agencies to cause suicide, hostility, violence, mania and drug dependence, strokes and sudden death.
- The number of children under 2 years of age prescribed psychotropic drugs in the US in 2013 alone could fill 3 ½ football stadiums.
- Since 2000, at least 27 school shootings or other acts of violence were committed by someone taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs, resulting in 55 killed and 100 wounded.
- It's not just authorities, dignitaries, administrators, government officials who say so, many psychiatrists feel the profession is unfounded: Here are some of them:
Peter Roger Breggin is an American psychiatrist and critic of shock treatment and psychiatric medication and COVID-19 response. In his books, he advocates replacing psychiatry's use of drugs and with psychotherapy, education, empathy, love, and broader human services. Wikipedia
And Samuel Goldwyn, a pioneer American filmmaker and one of Hollywood's most prominent producers for more than 30 years has this to say:
Does Psychiatry make you sane, happy and healthy or does it actually make you crazy? The daughter of a psychiatrist, starting with her own personal experience growing up on the grounds of mental institutions, and later, through her own study and explorations, thinks the latter.
Chapters such as "Sticks and Stones – Psychiatric Name Calling;" the tale of a woman "Shocked in Her 20s; Old Folks Home In Her 60s"; "Woman Veteran Administered High-volume Psychiatric Drugs – Commits Suicide" and "Men Behind Hitler – Psychiatrists and the Killing of Mental Patients and Jews," tell a harmful story.

ILLITERATES FAIL, LOTS GO TO JAIL. CHILDREN READ TO BEFORE SCHOOL WILL BE LITERATE AND PREVAIL!
Literacy is a problem today. 67% of 4th graders aren't proficient in reading. And 37% can't even read at a basic level! Result? 2/3 of students not proficient in reading by the end of 4th grade will end up in jail or on welfare.
Children are made readers on the laps of their parents who or whoever reads to them. The National Commission on Reading has said that reading to children prior to school is the most significant factor influencing early educational success.
Elyse Van Breemen, also known as writer, performer, Mz Goose,the Modern Day Mother Goose, who has been on television, been to the White House for Easter, and has written a beginning reader will tell you how to make reading to children, not a chore, but fun! In her talk, she gives examples, and lets you participate, showing how this will be fun, fun and fulfilling, not just for the child, but for you, too!
67% of 4th graders aren't proficient in reading and 2/3 of them will end up on welfare or in jail.You don't want this to happen to children you know and you can do something about it. Mother, father, sister, brother, teacher, preacher, beseacher, seeker, you can all read to children before they go to school. Would you believe that you can read to a baby? Oh, they love pictures, they love the sound of your voice. The National Commission on Reading as well as your speaker, Elyse Van Breemen, knows that reading to children makes them love books, helps them develop vocabulary, and makes it easier for them to learn to read. She knows and shows how to make it fun. In fact, her talk will be fun. You'll be given examples and have chances to participate. You can sit on a rug, give a child a hug and read to him or her. You'll have a warmer relationship with the child you read to and you'll be happier to know that they will do better in school and in life because of you. Reading to children is a wonderful thing to do and Elyse has ways to make it even more wonderful!

Testimonial
I have known Elyse for over 30 years. I first met her when she traveled as a Mz Goose entertainer back in the late eighties and stayed at my home in Baton Rouge. She is not just a great public speaker, and an entertaining one at that, she is a good poet and musician. I played piano at several events while she played cello as a kind of duet. I am so happy that she is using these rare talents to help parents and educators read to children in a way that makes them love reading and promotes literacy.
