It was part of the overall depopulation agenda. Knock off 15% for abortions, promote LGBTQ and increase those numbers, vaccines that kill elderly and sterilize youths, pestilence, even wars ... still it is not enough for these elites who would prefer a 90% decrease in population. They don't really care about these people, it's just a cold extermination of procreation, a numbers game. In the last 70 years, the world has tripled it's population. So when they look to the future, they realize the world could not sustain 25 billion in 70 years from now; so they began long ago to try to slow this population growth down. I would imagine in the Utopian New World Order their likely would be a restriction to one child per family Or procreation may only be granted to privileged elites?

Thank God the President banned this craziness!!! Now if they can ban the brainwashing of children from the schools about being transgender. I know President Trump doesn't agree with that.

Pyschiatrists have a high suicide rate. They can't even help themselves! But they sure make lots of $$$!It's terrible we have to hear about these things at all.
I watched a vid about a woman who wanted to be blinded as blind people have a better life, and she was depressed about living because she could see, and everything she saw to her was ugliness. So, her psychiatrist bought acid and pours it into her eyes to blind her. She now walks around as a blind person.
She is a mental case, and her doc is an enabler, very evil, just like the docs doing this to children.
I dont know how true that is but if you were listening to everyones problems from morning till night day in and day out you'd probably want to drive off a cliff too. How the heck is it a cure for people to ferment in all of their inner wrong think? They might be better off if they stopped obsessively thinking and talking about themselves so much and start sitting at the Lords feet and listening to the word of God whose words are truth and life, that they might get well. Its free too, you wouldnt need to go broke trying to pay for these overpriced, overpromoted pseudo pyschiatric sessions.Pyschiatrists have a high suicide rate. They can't even help themselves!

Wouldn’t they feel good about the people they help?

In this case their money is making them miserable by being a paid ear to peoples problems being dumped on them day in and day out, so it cant be a healthy way to deal with things.
Apparently not if they are commiting suicide in higher numbers so how is it that they are not feeling so good? They are not really there to "cheer you up" but study you in an analytical way. Its a manmade philospy.Wouldn’t they feel good about the people they help? Seeing someone get better would probably cheer them up
I think you hit the nail on the head with the general population and with the psychiatric profession as well. Generally Psychiatry does not address the spirit and is void of the essence of man, made in God's image. Those who do factor Christian theology have achieved much wisdom to help their patients.They might be better off if they stopped obsessively thinking and talking about themselves so much and start sitting at the Lords feet and listening to the word of God whose words are truth and life, that they might get well.

I saw a clip of a guy who went to their therapist appointment. Real life not a movie.Pyschiatrists have a high suicide rate. They can't even help themselves! But they sure make lots of $$$!

Sin is something you can't ignor when studying the human soul. I think maybe that the real meaning of that word, "soul" is foreign to some psychiatrists.
I studied psychology in college: Behavioral, Humanism, Freudian ... don't recall them ever mentioning sin, the Bible, getting focus off the self or loving one another as a cure. They seem to skip over that part and try to figure it all out without God. And then the idea of demonic influence is something of a myth to them ... it's just biology and chemistry, a mental illness requiring meds and behavior modification ...formulas that explore the inner child with self realization techniques.
One of the main causes of depression is self focus. Actually one famous and wise Psychoanalyst, M. Scott Peck, who wrote, "The Road Less Traveled" in 1978, said that. He was asked a hypothetical question: "If you were so depressed to the point of contemplating suicide, what would you do"? He said, "I would go out and find someone to help, then after I finished, find someone else to help" (acts of love really).
That is the cure. There is so much junk inside us, insecurities, failures, evil thoughts, that too much focus on self can only lead to depression. Jesus had the cure long ago, " Love God and one another".
Some modern psycho babble books about the inner child, low self esteem, focus on looking within even to the point to suggest power and answers lie within, you just have to find them to achieve healing.
Therapy without ever considering the Bible for answers, seeking God through Christ makes them even more screwed up. And there is this " the force is within you" mantra that has spread. It gets absurd. Shirley McClane once shouted to her fans, "I am god". And Christ was looking down on her likely shaking His head.
We are to die to ourselves and look outward to God. Then once we have the Holy Spirit, then He communes and guides us from within out temple from; but not until then.
Christians get depressed too. Self focus can still be a problem with some because theybm really haven't died to self, they have not yet mortified the flesh.
A depressed Christian approached my Pastor once and said, "I can't seem to get out of it, what can I do ... I pray ... but still, I'm stuck in a pit of despair? My Pastor gave him this advice: "Go and memorize the Sermon on the Mount. When you have it, come back and see me". He did that, came back weeks later and said something happened somewhere in the middle, I found peace and forgot what it was I was so depressed about!" That's another cure.
Oh and BTW, M. SCOTT Peck became a Christian twi years after he wrote that book so needless to say, he became a more balanced doctor and much more helpful before he died in 2005.
I think some of the happiest people are the servants, who are selfless, loving others, not thinking of themselves. I am not as happy as them though. Loving others as you love yourself is tough enough. There aren't many Mother Teresa's around.That was well put, I like this, "Generally Psychiatry does not address the spirit and is void of the essence of man, made in God's image."
And " Sin is something you can't ignor when studying the human soul. I think maybe that the real meaning of that word, "soul" is foreign to some psychiatrists."
That is so true.
I knew an older christian woman who wanted to help people and went to school just to be in that field (I honestly dont even know what to make about doing that) but thats what she did and I recall her telling me a couple of stories of people who were so not right and had what she believed was an evil spirit. She said something to the effect that she was not even allowed to acknowledge the possibility of an evil spirit.
But she could probably write out a ton of expensive perscriptions out for what it was not.
I read something like there is 1 Psychiatrist per every 5000 people (rounded down)in the U.S but theres supposedly a growing shortage of them because they are mostly of an older demographic. I would never pay that much for someone to listen to me gripe about my life when I can make my friends do it for free

That brings to mind another story. Towards the end of Mother Teresa's life, who totally sacrificed her life to love and care for orphan children, she was interviewed by a reporter who happened to be female. She asked her, "Who will take your place after you go"? Mother Teresa paused for a second, smiled and said m, "You can"! The reporter coiled back, felt trapped, awkward. Actually, I forget exactly what she said but it was likely how any of us would respond; "I, I, .. no, no... I can't ... I have a job or I have a family, or I feel that's not my calling, bla, bla, bla". Would any of us drop everything and move to India and live in squalor just because there are millions of starving kids tha5 need help? We don't want to be that happy I guess.
I get what you are saying. Some Catholics vow to live in poverty, own nothing, seek nothing for self.I think if you do not love yourself, you cannot love others.
Such unloving people are very destructive.
I am not happy with M Teresa, I read she believed suffering brings people close to God, so she would not allow people to be medically treated with antibiotics etc... and actually let them suffer and die.
Take a read here and see what I meanI get what you are saying. Some Catholics vow to live in poverty, own nothing, seek nothing for self.
I just saw a movie about Martin Luther, who became a monk and took those vows. He loved himself enough to eat, exercise, pray to God for guidance of which is asking God to love him back in a way, consider his path. Loving himself was focused on a personal mission, desire, motivation to learn and be equipped by God so he can go out and minister to others. The Word was food and he nourished himself. So it is not against loving yourself; just not in the way we lavish ourselves with material possessions, futile passtimes, entertainment, pleasures, etc.
Jesus grew up with a roof over his head; but on His mission, he lived outside, had no possessions ... nowhere to rest his head. And His disciples lived that way too. How do you think Paul lived for decades, traveling thousands of miles? Did he load up his camper with all the luxuries, stock it up with food, had continously reserve of money when it ran out withgrocery stores and restaurants along his path? No, he walked, maybe carried a bag with a few things and likely starved at times. These monks and sisters basically try to emulate their experience. Can any of us do that? Jesus told the disciples on a practice mission to bring nothing with them, to totally be faithful that God would provide just for training.
Mother Teresa did her thing, answered her calling and did not deem it necessary to involve outside assistance, which can be problematic, annoying, disruptive, frustrating, complicated. Food was welcomed I'm sure, but medicine? I don't know the details about her refusing that. She loved the kids, fed them, comforted them. Their lives were filled with hunger, pain and suffering. Maybe God told her no meds, just comfort them and I'll take them home soon. No point to try to sustain their miserable lives in poverty, just show them love before they go to their Maker. Remember death to them opens the door to eternal life in heaven, a much better place. No need for delay.
And then there is my negative opinion of BiG Pharma ... another topic.
It's not all just telling them your problems. I have PTSD and in 2008 I went to a Christian clinic and for 8 weeks I went through counseling every day for 8 hours a day with several psychologists and one psychiatrist.That was well put, I like this, "Generally Psychiatry does not address the spirit and is void of the essence of man, made in God's image."

After that I just came in every 3 months to see the psychiatrist.
It helped me.
