Doctors discovered Mentally Ill in California, in Alarming Numbers

California's Physician Diversion Program is fleeing the field after 27 years of its half-assed butt covering of California's 'Mentally Ill' Physicians.

The American Journal of Psychiatry informs us that 8%-15% of Cal's Physicians are either active or recovering drunks, another 1%-2% are dopers or in recovery, and that 16% more Doctors than non-Doctors suffer from Major Depressive Disorders. Male Physicians commit suicide at a rate 40% higher than non-Physicians, and female Physicians at a 2 fold rate compared to female non-Physicians. Up to 18% abuse drugs or alcohol at some point in their career. Each and Every one of these behaviors is a 'Crime', to Psychiatry: the Crime of 'Mental Illness'.

The AJP articles with numbers are in a previous posting, here at psychroaches.blogspot.com

Psychiatry's Witch Hunter's manual - the DSM-IV-TR - qualifies Each and Every one of these behaviors as a permanent, you can never be cured, mental illness. And the Cal State Diversion Program offers Diversion to Treatment to every Physician in California so afflicted with their fellow Physician/Psychiatrist's legally enforceable 'Mental Illness' screwings of everyone else, so that these 'Mentally Ill' Physician/Psychiatrists themselves won't have to stop practicing medicine.

It is Illegal to practice medicine if you are mentally ill. (Or is it?) And All of these Physicians in California are Psychiatrically, legally condemnable as Mentally Ill. And just over Half of these pampered, protected drunks, bums and brats even Bother to seek rehab. The remaining drunks, dopers and DSM-able whackos just go into hiding, out in the open at work, screwing up their patients, and sometimes killing them.

Let's look at a line from the 2004 Cal State Diversion Program Audit itself.

"Where [physician] rehabilitation and protection are inconsistent, protection shall be paramount.”

OK, You caught that, Right? "Protection shall be paramount." Protection of Who? The public, or the mentally ill Docs? This Diversion seance has been scamming the Citizens of California for 27 years, and the other 49 States in America have used it as a Model to scam their own Citizens, with Their Own 'let's take care of Our own and to Hell with the public', Diversion scams.

In years previous to the Diversion Program:
"physician negligence or incompetence was handled through the civil tort system." As it Damn well Should be.

"In 1975, medical malpractice insurers announced massive premium increases, allegedly needed to pay jury verdicts and remain profitable."

Wasn't That a crying shame. Thousand upon thousands of whining, self indulgent drunken or hung over Doctors were crippling and killing people, and they were getting sued. They Should have been getting Jailed.

"Outraged physicians turned to the Legislature for a solution. The result was AB 1 (Keene), the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act of 1975 (MICRA), a measure carefully designed to comprehensively address three issues — tort reform, medical quality control, and insurance regulation — that were of interest to the four sets of stakeholders “at the table” (physicians, lawyers, insurance companies, and patients). According to Assemblymember Keene, “[a] general policy . . . decision was made that all interested parties must sacrifice in order to reach a fair and rational solution to the insurance crisis."

"in order to reach a fair and rational solution to the insurance crisis."

How about a 'fair and rational solution' like revoking all those licenses?

"AB 1 was drafted to include all reforms in order to prevent any one interest group from sabotaging any single-objective bill.”

Right. Sure it was. And Now, with any luck at all, without a Diversion Program, we'll go back to that peculiarly American system of, You Moron, You killed my wife. I'm going to sue You out of everything your Great Grandfather ever owned, You incompetent, drunken, murdering Idiot!

And on That model of Treatment, the free market will flush the 'DSM-IV-TR Mentally Ill' Doctors right out of the system, and our lives, by raising their malpractice premiums on a per screw up basis So astronomically out of reach that they'll have to quit. Problem solved, and Fair Warning delivered, to the rest.

If any if Us kill someone you can bet the rent that it Won't result in an Increase in our insurance rates, let alone having a Diversion Program to Rehabilitate Us; a Diversion Program that these Physicians have to pay for, as a slice of Their taxes.

Cal's Diversion Program is on the way out, on June 30 2008. Get rid of the other 49, and start suing and locking up these 'DSM-IV-TR Mentally Ill' Physicians.

In any rational world, as in One Nation Under Law, the only rational course is to admit that everyone is subject to the petty human failings that Psychiatry uses to destroy people with, and exorcise this Idiot Witch Hunt called Psychiatry - which has YET to produce a Single Shred of evidence that it even Belongs in medicine - right Out of medicine.
