Psychiatry is the only branch of medicine where the drugs alter the brain in ways their prescribers cannot reverse. Escape from Psychiatry documents how invented diseases and brain-altering drugs built the only door in medicine that locks from the outside — and how patients, often after decades on medication, find their way back through. Drawing on the work of Peter Gøtzsche, Peter Breggin, Robert Whitaker, David Healy, Joanna Moncrieff, and many others, the book examines the fabrication of the DSM, the collapse of the serotonin hypothesis, the invention of pediatric bipolar disorder, the harms of benzodiazepines and antipsychotics, and the specific damage done by long-term use of every major psychiatric drug class. The book closes with five practical appendices — a Q&A companion, a dictionary of psychiatric deception, questions for prescribers, a withdrawal companion, and a guide for families. The exit exists. This book maps it.
