Survivors of Unethical Therapy

Hmm, not sure. What would you do with the pamphlet?

Hi Budfox,


I would convince the Government to fund pamphlets in every therapist's office, hospital, police station, advocacy organization, mental health forum, etc.

I've been stalked electronically for over a decade by a sicko psychologist (and a colleague of his) who thinks this is a form of therapy. I was briefly a student of his over 15 years ago and he's been obsessed with me ever since. I can't tell if he's addicted to attacking me or just addicted to committing the crime, or maybe it's both. I do know this is connected with my being discriminated against while I was in school, and he blamed me for the whole mess and he's been punishing me for it ever since. I thought it was over, but he appears to be right back at it, with his friend in tow.

Have you reported this to the police? If not, I think you really should. Police departments now have an internet crime unit.

Hi Ceara, Thank you for sharing your story Ceara! My heart goes out to you. I have heard of this happening before, but it is very rare that anyone ever shares their experiences for fear of being disbelieved. I want you to know that I believe you wholeheartedly! The digital space is scary and things like this do happen all the time. Hacking is becoming more and more common too. We spend so much of our time in the digital universe - there is no wonder that this is occurring. Any chance you might be able to block your perpetrators for good? I am wondering if perhaps you might share how you have managed to cope with this? It sounds like a very unique set of circumstances to be in - and your hard-earned insight could save lives. I would love to hear how you have managed to cope and handle these abusive tactics. Have you tried to file complaints against the perpetrators? I hope you are well, Thanks, HD7970ghz

I forgot to mention that reporting this to their licensing board is also a good idea.


But if you report it to the police, I am sure that the licensing board will find out.

I recommend being very careful approaching police. They usually just say, "What does the psychiatrist say?" If you go that route, I would recommend seeking legal council first, having them help you write a report and make sure the police don't just chalk this up to mental illness. There is a reason why they don't have as much power as psychiatry.


PSYCHIATRY provides ample control and wiggle-room for abusers in power, by providing present day societies biggest loophole: THE INVENTION OF FABRICATED EVIDENCE, WHICH SOMEHOW STANDS UP IN A COURT OF LAW, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY ZERO EVIDENCE TO PROVE THAT A PSYCHIATRIST'S OPINION IS TRUE OR NOT.

Psychiatry is an industry that is literally designed to create evidence out of thin air. They base this evidence on a foundation of knowledge that is constantly changing - and then they claim that an opinion is evidence, and therefore, it stands up in a court of law...

Does anyone else see how pathetic this system is? It is literally designed to protect perpetrators. There is FAR more incentive to be unethical in that system, than to be ethical. Lots of room for corruption in those power dynamics, and despite the fact that this has been abused and proven countless times - the majority of the public is still stuck on, "Why would a psychiatrist want to harm you?"

Simple answer: Because they can. Because they are human and they are able to benefit from it - whether that be monetarily, a feeling of empowerment and control over others, career advancements and political favors, fear of retaliation for doing the right thing, etc.

Absolutely disgustingly broken system. But we must be paranoid, right?

Hmm.

Our entire legal establishment needs a serious kick in the butt, and along with it includes Law Enforcement, Judicial Systems, Child Protection Services, Healthcare, Psychiatry, etc. Netflix's exclusive, "Making a Murderer," is a pinpoint accurate depiction of the truth behind closed doors, and that same principle can be applied to every Government establishment and or Institution that affords employees with all the power in the world and absolutely ZERO accountability.

But I must be paranoid.

Okay then lol.

Is everyone who is ever made aware of the truth behind closed doors, labelled paranoid?

Just FYI: Be sure you are utilizing legitimate and respected sources.

Daily Mail - Media Bias/Fact Check

Your source a few articles back is from The Daily Mail which is why I provided the Media Bias/Fact Check link to that source. In the link I provided, the following is stated about this source: "In review, the Daily Mail tends to publish stories utilizing sensationalized headlines with emotionally loaded wordings such as “Woman, 63, ‘becomes PREGNANT in the mouth’ with baby squid after eating calamari”, which is a misleading headline. In 2017, Wikipedia banned the Daily Mail as an ‘unreliable’ source. When it comes to sourcing information they use minimal hyperlinked sourcing as well as sourcing to themselves. In general, most stories favor the right, however the Daily Mail will report either side if the story is sensational enough."

When you are passionate about a cause, it is important to also check your sources to be sure they are coming from media sources of a certain reliability. Otherwise, you inadvertently may end up weakening your argument because of poor source work.

I've filed police reports on them but I can't prove anything. And the licensing board wouldn't do anything.

There's much more to this story that I haven't shared because it would make me look too crazy--that is the perpetrator's protection, that no one would believe me and they would think I'm just crazy.

I haven't really coped well. I've got CPTSD because of these people and have been disabled from this for years now.

Thanks so much for your kind words.

Again, not questioning your cause. Not sure why the long post to me about abuse and survivors. That wasn't my point. I was simply recommending you take care to double check your sources. This one I noted is pretty notorious for being considered highly unreliable and repeatedly considered discredited.

No worries ArtleyWilkins! I didn't mean to write a long post for you - I needed to vent my frustrations is all.

How have you been? I haven't talked to you in awhile?

Omg, it's only been 3 yrs.. so I got 7 to go? Aaargghhhh.. ha

I feel exactly like that and am like 'was it just me'?

I feel the hardest cases arent always just blatant sexual cases.... But therapists who want to be good but haven't gotten over their own issues and make poor choices

Awesome idea, I didn't realise how vulnerable I was in therapy.... People need to know what's ethical

I keep wanting to contact my former t that sexually abused and exploited me and I just want to ask him like....... do u acknowledge what happened ? Cause he never did in the Board case or the lawsuit.

Like I just need to know if he can even admit it even now 10 yrs latwr

What was the result of lawsuit?

And sorry to hear that ☹️

I received a settlement that went into a trust and had to sign a contract abt not talking abt what happened with him or use his name unless it's with a mental health professional
