My Freedom Song

I am one who was abused
For 20 long years of my life
Happiness was just a word to me
Hope never to be abused again.

They took away my child
That to them was mild
They gave me shock, this has to stop
The boat we all must block.

Not able to concentrate
Getting up far too late
Fat, slow without much soul
They know just how to control.

Forgive them everyday
This can’t be here to stay
The shock, the drugs, the firm control
Destroying both heart and soul.

A chemical imbalance of the brain
The reason I was insane
Fat, slow without much soul
They know just how to control.

I am one who was abused
By people who thought this was kind
Take your tablets every day
Then life will work out just fine!

Many people in the world are abused
Their souls are locked and chained
Happiness is just a world to them
I hope someday they’ll be free.

LET US KNOW HOW TO SING
LAUGH, DANCE AND SMILE
LET US KNOW, LET US FEEL JOY AND LOVE
I HOPE SOMEDAY WE’LL BE FREE

I know someday we’ll be free!

Freedom for psychiatric survivors.Psychiatric Slavery

A Woman’s Opinion

Psychiatric labelling is one of the worst causes of modernday slavery.  Once a person is stamped with any fake, ‘medical’ oppressive, inhuman misdiagnoses found in DSM 5 then the possibility of becoming a psychiatric slave can unfortunately be a reality.  Because normal women’s problems can be medicalized by psychiatry so easily internationally women are becoming psychiatric victims daily.


Doctors/psychiatrists have the power to intoxicate anyone.   It is very difficult to understand how mind altering drugs actually work.   They are very dangerous.  Yet  they are increasing alarmingly globally everywhere  doctors  prescribe them,  Big Pharma manufactures them and pharmacies sell them.  In Ireland where I live, many bars have closed down and pharmacies are two a penny, especially since the turn of this century!

Governments globally are hand in glove with the big business of medicalizing our societies.  Most politicians  ignore real social problems which they have the power to improve.  They are too easily bribed by big money.  They often take the easiest option available.  They spend hard earned tax payers money unwisely while the poor remain poorer and the rich reap the rewards.  

Nations that depend on the sale of drugs cannot find freedom.  Ireland has a history of being trapped by external power.  We thought we gained our freedom as a nation in 1916.   We fought a bloody civil war afterwards.  Now we have our own government.   We may be free from one form of power but we have replaced it with a more invisible, sinister power.

Women and children are  nearly always the ones who suffer the most.  Is it any wonder that they might find this world a hard place to be at home?  Many years ago when my good friend Michal Corry M.D. RIP was asked why women became ‘depressed’ the most on a TV programme we took part in together his answer was “ Isn’t it a man’s world”?!

Set Me Free

Song composed in memory of electroshock survivor and activist Sue Clark By Jim and Mary Maddock

A Crime Against Humanity

They say we have an imbalance
A chemical imbalance 
Broken brains
They force us to be 'normal' 
With toxic poisons
We must obey
Chorus
They say the're scientific
Concocting trials
Results they frame
Backed up by Big Pharma
They line their pockets
To achieve their power
Chorus:
Brains zapped with electroshock
Named ECT
Damages our brains
the machines are not examined
They line their pockets
Destroy our brains
Chorus:
Our children have no future 
While toxic poisons
Destroy their brains
Love should be their future
Tons of encouragement 
Instead of pain.

Sing It From The Mountains

NewsTalk interview with Jonathan Healy and Mary Maddock on electroshock.

Electroshock Interview

Easter is a time for new beginnings.   People labelled by psychiatry have been oppressed over the centuries.  Time for us to see there is no ' us' and 'them'.  We all belong to the same race -that is the human race.
