Mental Health and the Targeted Individual
When talking about the realities faced by a Targeted Individual, we must face the truth that the perpetrators will accomplish their objective of making your life, and your mind insane. Prolonged torture, both psychological and physical, cause lasting mental and physical conditions that may need treatment of some sort. Whether it be a prescription painkiller to treat the physical assault, or it be a prescription to help balance the offset of chemicals that the mind uses due to ongoing psychological onslaught many of us face, we have to decide to weigh the pros and cons in order to make those decisions.
Now imagine that you were born with a disability—a mental or psychological diagnosis. Having the challenge of facing life with impairment would be difficult at times. Now imagine that as a person you, without your knowledge or consent, have had some unethical--often illegal—and defiantly dangerous treatment administered to you or your children. AS a TI you may say that you understand what mistreatment is like, but for someone who already has a mental or psychological diagnosis, the difficulties to face in life multiply. We at times hear of those who give in to despair because the strain of both is just too much to take.
There are many of us who face this dual challenge directly due to the fact that we have a psychological or mental diagnosis--we are chosen because of it. Below are a few examples of human experimentation and torture on those who have a mental or psychological diagnosis by organizations and agencies that wield power of one form or another. These examples reflect the attitudes of the perpetrators of these crimes and they also provide a model for the mindset of those who attack Targeted Individuals.
The prevelance of diagnosed targets indicates that we need to address the challenges faced by those with these dual diagnosis situations as a group. Please read and comment on the following;
Once Project MKUltra officially got underway in April, 1953, experiments included administering LSD to mental patients, prisoners, drug addicts and prostitutes, "people who could not fight back", as one agency officer put it.[31] In one case LSD was administered to a mental patient in Kentucky for 174 days.-- ^ a b Tim Weiner (10 Mar 1999).

The experiments were exported to Canada when the CIA recruited Scottish psychiatrist Donald Ewen Cameron, creator of the "psychic driving" concept, which the CIA found particularly interesting. Cameron had been hoping to correct schizophrenia by erasing existing memories and reprogramming the psyche. He commuted from Albany, New York to Montreal every week to work at the Allan Memorial Institute of McGill University and was paid $69,000 from 1957 to 1964 to carry out MKUltra experiments there. In addition to LSD, Cameron also experimented with various paralytic drugs as well as electroconvulsive therapy at thirty to forty times the normal power. His "driving" experiments consisted of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for weeks at a time (up to three months in one case) while playing tape loops of noise or simple repetitive statements. His experiments were typically carried out on patients who had entered the institute for minor problems such as anxiety disorders and postpartum depression, many of whom suffered permanently from his actions.[40] His treatments resulted in victims' incontinence, amnesia, forgetting how to talk, forgetting their parents, and thinking their interrogators were their parents.[41] His work was inspired and paralleled by the British psychiatrist William Sargant at St Thomas' Hospital, London, and Belmont Hospital, Surrey, who was also involved in the Intelligence Services and who experimented extensively on his patients without their consent, causing similar long-term damage.[42]— 40-Marks 1979: pp 140–150.^ 41-Turbide, Diane (1997-04-21).

From the 1950s to 1972, mentally disabled children at the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island, New York were intentionally infected with viral hepatitis, in research whose purpose was to help discover a vaccine.[39] From 1963 to 1966, Saul Krugman of New York University promised the parents of mentally disabled children that their children would be enrolled into Willowbrook in exchange for signing a consent form for procedures that he claimed were "vaccinations." In reality, the procedures involved deliberately infecting children with viral hepatitis by feeding them an extract made from the feces of patients infected with the disease.[40][41]-39-^ Frederick Adolf Paola, Robert Walker, Lois Lacivita Nixon, ed.

The experiments included a wide array of studies, involving things like feeding radioactive food to mentally disabled children or conscientious objectors, inserting radium rods into the noses of schoolchildren, deliberately releasing radioactive chemicals over U.S. and Canadian cities, measuring the health effects of radioactive fallout from nuclear bomb tests, injecting pregnant women and babies with radioactive chemicals, and irradiating the testicles of prison inmates, amongst other things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unethical_human_experimentation_in_the_United_States
From 1946 to 1953, at the Walter E. Fernald State School in Massachusetts, in an experiment sponsored by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and the Quaker Oats corporation, 73 mentally disabled children were fed oatmeal containing radioactive calcium and other radioisotopes, in order to track "how nutrients were digested". The children were not told that they were being fed radioactive chemicals and were told by hospital staff and researchers that they were joining a "science club".[65][67][68][69]-65- a b LeBaron, Wayne D.

In another study at the Walter E. Fernald State School, in 1956, researchers gave mentally disabled children radioactive calcium orally and intravenously. They also injected radioactive chemicals into malnourished babies and then pushed needles through their skulls, into their brains, through their necks, and into their spines to collect cerebrospinal fluid for analysis.[69][75]-69-Abhilash R.

In 1957, Dr. Robert Heath of Tulane University performed experiments on schizophrenic patients, which were funded by the U.S. Army. In the studies, he dosed them with high levels of LSD, and then implanted "deep electrodes" in their brains to take EEG readings.[126] Mohr, Clarence L.; Joseph E. Gordon (2001).

Bender would sometimes shock schizophrenic children (some less than 3 years old) twice per day, for 20 consecutive days. Several of the children became violent and suicidal as a result of the treatments.[149] Whitaker, Robert (2010).

At Willowbrook State School for the mentally retarded in Staten Island, NY, a highly controversial medical study was carried out there between 1963 and 1966 by medical researchers Saul Krugman and Robert W. McCollum. Healthy children who were mentally retarded, were secretly intentionally inoculated, orally and by injection, with a virus that causes the hepatitis, then monitored to gauge the effects of gamma globulin in combating the resultant disease.[3] A public outcry forced the study to be discontinued after it was exposed and condemned by Senator Robert F. Kennedy.[150] http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=87975196 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unethical_human_experimentation_in_the_United_States

1993-Researchers at the West Haven VA in Connecticut give 27 schizophrenics -- 12 inpatients and 15 functioning volunteers -- a chemical called MCPP that significantly increases their psychotic symptoms and, as researchers note, negatively affects the test subjects on a long-term basis ("Testimony of Adil E. Shamoo, Ph.D.").

In a double-blind experiment at New York VA Hospital, researchers take 23 schizophrenic inpatients off of their medications for a median of 30 days. They then give 17 of them 0.5 mg/kg amphetamine and six a placebo as a control, following up with PET scans at Brookhaven Laboratories. According to the researchers, the purpose of the experiment was "to specifically evaluate metabolic effects in subjects with varying degrees of amphetamine-induced psychotic exacerbation" ("Testimony of Adil E.
