Today the New York Times reported that Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr evaded a battery of questions concerning the mental health problems of the now infamous co-pilot of Germanwings Flight 9525, Andreas Lubitz. “We are learning more every day about the causes of the accident,” Spohr stated in his prepared remarks, “It will take a long, long time for all of us to understand how this could happen.”
While it is true that Spohr and the rest of us are learning more every day about the causes of the accident, only a handful of alert observers (see here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here) have discerned the most likely origin of Lubitz’ dreadful decision to deliberately crash the 150 passenger Airbus A320-200 into the French Alps: psychotropic drugs.
How is it possible, one might ask, for someone (even someone who had experienced symptoms of depression and anxiety) to commit such a heinous act? Could a small mountain of drugs and a couple of sick notes really cause such a colossal catastrophe?
Yes.
In fact, whatever problems Lubitz was dealing with personally (symptoms of depression, anxiety, vision problems, broken relationships, job stress, etc.), they were nothing compared to the brain havoc caused by psychiatry and psychotropic drugging. The toxic chemicals that riddled Lubitz’ brain (substances which might more accurately be described as androphonic or man-slaying drugs) included the powerful drug Zyprexa (or Olanzapine,which is euphemistically referred to as an “atypical antipsychotic”).
Lubitz was not the first pilot to crash an aircraft while under the influence of SSRIs. Moreover, Lubitz was not the first subject of psychiatry on psychotropic drugs to commit an egregious act of mass murder and suicide. Thousands of similar tragedies have already been recorded (see here, here, here, and here), and there will be many more, unless psychiatry and pharmaceutical companies are held accountable for these crimes.
The symptoms that plagued Lubitz (depression, anxiety, vision problems, sexual perversion, etc.) culminated in a horrific mass murder / suicide crash, and they are most likely the direct result of psychiatric abuse and psychotropic drugging. It is highly probable that Lubitz deliberately crashed the plane because he was suffering from a psychosis provoked by psychiatric abuse and psychotropic drugs (or by an abrupt withdrawal from psychotropic drugs) No one who has endured 18 months of what is euphemistically termed psychiatric “care” can possibly emerge unscathed.
Ironically, the main stream media, so-called medical experts, and the ignorant masses will probably continue to view this tragedy as the result of a mysterious mental illness that should have required more “treatment” and “care.” Instead of acknowledging the fact that psychotropic drugs and psychiatric abuse actually cause the very symptoms that they are purported to remedy (see here, here, here, here, here, here and here), the self-appointed “experts” will most likely continue to advocate for more drugs, more psychiatric “treatment,” and more mental health screenings. As psychiatry, the therapeutic state and the psychopharmaceutical industrial complex continue their charades, more tragedies like that of Germanwings Flight 9525 will follow.
