Next stop: Seattle
The CCHR touring exhibit ended its 3-week visit to Oregon on September 20th. The next stop on the tour is Seattle, Washington.
CCHR’s touring exhibit is a hard-hitting collection of 14 documentaries detailing psychiatry’s troubled past, its controversial “treatments”, and the impact it has on society today – including the danger it poses to children and its threat to human rights. The documentaries are based on interviews with more than 160 experts in the fields of medicine, psychiatry, psychology, law, justice, history, science, education and more. They share CCHR’s concern about the high death rate and abuse in the mental health field.
The Touring Exhibit enlightens anyone who cares about human rights, and empowers them to do something about the abuses it exposes.

Psychiatry’s deadly legacy
- More than 100,000 patients die each year in psychiatric institutions around the world.
- An estimated 15,000 American children have died as a consequence of taking psychiatric drugs.
- In the last 10 years, schools have become the scene of mass killings by schoolchildren who were taking prescribed psychiatric drugs known to cause violent and suicidal behavior.
- Since 2003, more than 60 international drug regulatory agency warnings have been issued against psychiatric drugs, including stimulants causing strokes, heart attacks and deaths; antidepressants causing hostility, aggression and suicidal thoughts; and antipsychotic drugs causing life threatening diabetes and liver failure.
- Approximately 10,000 patients die each year from electroshock treatment around the world.
- By their own admission and testimony, including testimony to the U.S. Congress, psychiatrists do not know the source of or how to cure a single mental “disorder.” In fact, according to one U.S. study, psychiatric treatment scored a 99% failure rate in patient recovery.
- Some 54 million internationally take antidepressants. These drugs are currently are under fire by drug regulatory agencies, not only for their potential to create suicidal and violent impulses in both adults and children, but for being no better than placebo [dummy pill] in drug trials.
- Studies show that antipsychotic drugs and electroshock administered to the elderly can precipitate an early death.
