Bonkers Institute questions trauma awareness campaign on school shootings

Bonkers Institute questions trauma awareness campaign on school shootings

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Coinciding with the launch of DSM-5 is a broad-based national campaign to raise “awareness” about trauma (so-called).

A typical example is a SAMHSA-sponsored workshop, Understanding the Effects of Trauma on the Lives of Those We Serve - Promoting Alternatives to Seclusion & Restraint through Trauma Informed Practices, being held today here in northern Michigan, described in this leaflet:

The word “trauma” is certain to be bandied about with increasing frequency, what with all these school shootings and so on…

Our question is this: which drug companies are behind the “trauma awareness” campaign? 

If you know of any new drugs and/or new FDA approvals for the treatment of trauma, please enlighten us on the subject.  Even if it’s only a hunch, let us know which companies you think might profit the most from the expanded diagnosis of PTSD and related disease entities (so-called).  

Keep your eyes open for drug reps who might be standing in the background, and be alert for any literature, brochures etc. with the words, "Sponsored by an unrestricted educational grant from..."  We're looking for clues, looking for fingerprints...

Thanks from the entire staff here at the Institute,

Methodius Isaac Bonkers, M.D.
