Camarillo State Hospital..built in 1936 and closed in 1997..One of California`s most haunted places with ongoing paranormal investigations to this day, even with the vacated buildings..Channel Islands University now occupies the site..
Nurse Ratched of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo`s Nest"..a typical profile of true to life employees of former Camarillo State Hospital, especially on ward #14 where electro shock treatments were regularly, barbarically given, destroying patient`s brain cells..This was a very evil place and is why the remaining spirits still haunt the premises...
Here`s an example of an electro-shock treatment being given to a poor victim..No, applying 700 volts to one`s brain doesn`t have any destructive and long lasting effects..This treatment is supposed to cure you and be good for you..yes, of course!!..When this treatment was invented back in the 1930`s, they had no idea what they were doing and they still don`t....It`s merely a leverage and torture device....A way of keeping patients in line by using the threat of electro-shock hanging over their heads...A WALK-THROUGH VIDEO ON THE GROUNDS OF THE FORMER CAMARILLO STATE HOSPITAL...AFTER THE HOSPITAL HAD ALREADY BEEN SHUT DOWN IN 1997...
One of the abandoned buildings of the former Camarillo State Hospital..This is a photo of what was once a dormitory..This was at one time filled with single beds lined up next to each other from one end to the other end of the dormitory and is where the patients had to sleep, but then they herded you out, like cattle, in the morning...And whether you were still tired and needed more sleep, or not, you had to go to the day room and wait to get in line to go breakfast in the dinning hall, which was located on the other side of the big central courtyard...Oh, and you also had to wait in the day room to be called to the office to get your medication..Or, rather, your psychotropic drugs which were actually drugs that were slowly killing you and turning you into a "zombie"... This is a "must-see" video.. THE MOST SHOCKING PSYCHIATRY DOCUMENTARY EVER... 
This is a photo of an actual electro-shock machine, or "torture device", more accurately described..This particular machine is responsible for many many deaths and permanently damaging the brains of millions of mental patients world-wide..

DOES MIGHT LEAD TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION
OF DOCTORS WHO ADMINISTER IT __________________________________________________
When ECT is administered by force after being authorized by a judge, the judge is equally morally culpable despite being protected by judicial immunity. Legislators who vote for involuntary treatment laws are morally responsible for these crimes against humanity despite being protected by legislative immunity. The administration of ECT (or psychiatric "medication" or psychosurgery) by force or threat of force to an unwilling person that was authorized by law or court order may relieve the perpetrators of criminal liability, but it does not relieve them of moral responsibility. Such an assault is not morally justified merely because it was authorized by law or by a judge.
Unlike some countries, states in the U.S.A. have failed to fulfill their responsibility to protect people from cruel, irrational, and damaging "treatment" such as ECT. So if you live in the U.S.A. or another place where government does not protect you, it is left to you to, as best you can, protect yourself and your loved ones by keeping yourself and your loved ones away from psychiatrists who administer ECT.

An important motive for administering ECT is profit: Each costs $2,000 to $3,000 ($36,000 for a typical series of 12), according to Larry Tye in his book Shock: The Healing Power of Electroconvulsive Therapy (p. 14). Psychiatrists and their co-workers who administer ECT are engaging in health care quackery, enriching themselves while harming and terrorizing their so-called patients.
Yet most psychiatrists have administered ECT. Psychiatrists usually are required to administer ECT to complete residency training in psychiatry, making it embarrassing and therefore difficult for them to later admit how harmful the "treatment" is: Thereafter it becomes imperative for them to deny, deny, deny the obvious truth about the brain damage they have inflicted on their so-called patients. Widespread understanding of what electroconvulsive brain damaging or "ECT" does might even lead to criminal prosecution of doctors and their co-workers who administer it. The trial and criminal conviction and four-year prison sentence of singer Michael Jackson's personal physician, Dr. Conrad Robert Murray, after his treatment caused Michael Jackson's death, is a precedent in this regard.

In his textbook Psychiatry for Medical Students, published in 1984, Robert J. Waldinger, M.D., says "ECT's mechanism of action is not known. ... As with the other somatic therapies in psychiatry, we do not know the mechanism by which ECT exerts its therapeutic effects" (pp. 120 & 389). Psychiatrists claim unhappiness or so-called
ECT consists of electricity being
Electricity is only one of several ways psychiatrists have induced seizures in people for supposedly therapeutic purposes. According to psychiatrists, seizures induced by chemicals or gas inhalants are just as effective, psychiatrically speaking, as ECT. In September 1977 in the American Journal of Psychiatry, psychiatry professor Max Fink, M.D., said: "Seizures may also be induced by an anesthetic inhalant, flurothyl, with no electrical currents, and these treatments are as effective as ECT" (p. 992). On the same page he said seizures induced by injecting a drug, pentylenetetrazol (Metrazol), into the bloodstream have therapeutic effects equal to seizures induced with ECT.
It's interesting, to say the least, that any of these three very different seizure producing agents - flurothyl gas inhaled through a gas mask, Metrazol injected with a hypodermic needle, or electricity passed through the head - could be equally psychiatrically "therapeutic". Psychiatrists say that it is the seizure that is "therapeutic", not the method of inducing the seizure. But why would seizures induced by any of these three very different methods be equally "therapeutic"?
One theory is they are all equally horrifying to the victim (the "patient") who receives the "treatment". In his book Against Therapy, published in 1988, psychoanalyst Jeffrey Masson, Ph.D., asks: "Why do psychiatrists torture people and call it electroshock therapy?" (p. xv). In his book Battle for the Mind: A Physiology of Conversion and Brain-Washing, William Sargant said "The history of psychiatric treatment shows, indeed, that from time immemorial attempts have been made to cure mental disorders by the use of physiological shocks, frights, and various chemical agents; and such means have always yielded brilliant results in certain types of patient" (p. 82). In his book Breakdown, psychologist Norman S. Sutherland points out that in his observations ECT "was widely dreaded", and he says "there are many reports from patients likening the atmosphere in hospital on days when ECT was to be administered to that of a prison on the day of an execution" (p. 196).
Defenders of ECT say that because of the addition of anesthesia to make the procedure painless, the horribleness of ECT is entirely a thing of the past. This argument misses the point. It is the mental disorientation, the memory loss, the lost mental ability, the realization after awaking from the "therapy" that the essence of one's very self is being destroyed by the "treatment" that induces the terror - not only or even primarily physical suffering. ECT, or electroshock, strikes to the core personality and is terrifying for this reason. As was said by Lothar B. Kalinowsky, M.D., and Paul H. Hoch, M.D., in their book Shock Treatments, Psychosurgery, and Other Somatic Treatments in Psychiatry: "Fear of ECT, however, is a greater problem than was originally realized. This refers to a fear which develops or increases only after a certain number of treatments. It is different than the fear which the patient, unacquainted with the treatment, has prior to the first application. ... 'The agonizing experience of the shattered self' is the most convincing explanation for the late fear of the treatment" (p. 133). One way ECT achieves its effects is the victims of this supposed therapy change their behavior, display of emotion, and expressed ideas for the purpose of avoiding being tortured and destroyed by the "therapy". Refusing to take ECT doesn't always work, because ECT is often administered against the "patient's" will. In The Powers of Psychiatry, published in 1980, Emory University Professor Jonas Robitscher, J.D., M.D., said "Organized psychiatry continues to oppose any restrictions by statute, regulation, or court case on its 'right' to give shock to involuntary and unwilling patients" (p. 279). Even now in the 1990s only one state in the United States - Wisconsin - prohibits all involuntary administration of ECT.
Since the "patient's" fear of ECT is one of the things that makes ECT "work", psychiatrists often get results by merely threatening people with ECT. As psychiatrist Peter R. Breggin, M.D., says in his book Electroshock: It's Brain Disabling Effects: "For patients who witness these [brain disabling] effects without themselves undergoing ECT, the effect of ECT is nonetheless intimidating. They do everything in their power to cooperate in order to avoid a similar fate" (p. 173).
Another way ECT achieves its effects is by damaging the brain. In the words of Lee Coleman, M.D., a psychiatrist: "The rationale for electroshock was formerly couched in psychoanalytic terms, with punitive superegos sometimes requiring repeated shocks of 110 volts for appeasement. Only then could guilt be assuaged and discontent be relieved. It is much more common now to hear equally absurd neurophysiological explanations, this time the idea being that these electrical assaults somehow rearrange brain chemistry for the better. Most theorists readily agree, however, that these are speculations; in fact, they seem to take a certain satisfaction in shock treatment's supposedly unknown mode of action. ... The truth is, however, that electroshock 'works' by a mechanism that is simple, straightforward, and understood my many of those who have undergone it and anyone else who truly wanted t find out. Unfortunately, the advocates of electroshock (particularly those who administer it) refuse to recognize what it does, because to do so would make them feel bad. Electroshock works by damaging the brain. Proponents insist that this damage is negligible and transient - a contention that is disputed by many who have been subjected to the procedure. Furthermore, its advocates want to see this damage as a 'side effect.' In fact, the changes one sees when electroshock is administered are completely consistent with any acute brain injury, such as a blow to the head from a hammer. In essence, what happens is that the individual is dazed, confused, and disoriented, and therefore cannot remember or appreciate current problems. The shocks are then continued for a few weeks (sometimes several times a day) to make the procedure 'take,' that is, to damage the brain sufficiently so that the individual will not remember, at least for several months, the problems that led to his being shocked in the first place. The greater the brain damage, the more likely that certain memories and abilities will never return. Thus memory loss and confusion secondary to brain injury are not side effects of electroshock; they are the means by which families (perhaps unwittingly) and psychiatrists sometimes choose to deal with troubled and troublesome persons. Many of us would question such a dubious means of obliterating, rather than dealing with, emotional distress" (From the Introduction, The History of Shock Treatment, edited by L. R. Frank, p. xiii.)
Advocates of ECT falsely claim there is no evidence of brain damage from ECT. For example, in his book Overcoming Depression, Dr. Andrew Stanway, a British physician, says "People often worry that ECT might be damaging their brain in some way but there is no evidence of this" (p.184).
In fact, it didn't take long after ECT was invented in 1938 for autopsy studies revealing ECT-caused brain damage to begin appearing in medical journals. This brain damage includes cerebral hemorrhages (abnormal bleeding), edema (excessive accumulation of fluid), cortical atrophy (shrinkage of the cerebral cortex, or outer layers of the brain), dilated perivascular spaces in the brain, fibrosis (thickening and scarring), gliosis (growth of abnormal tissue), and rarefied and partially destroyed brain tissue. (See Peter R. Breggin, M.D., Electroshock: It's Brain Disabling Effects for references.) Commenting on the extent of physical brain damage caused by electroconvulsive "therapy", Karl Pribram, Ph.D., head of Stanford University's Neuropsychology Laboratory, once said: "I'd rather have a small lobotomy than a series of electroconvulsive shock. ... I just know what the brain looks like after a series of shocks, and it's not very pleasant to look at" (APA Monitor, Sept.-Oct. 1974, pp. 9-10). Dr. Sidney Sament, a neurologist, describes ECT this way: "Electroconvulsive therapy in effect may be defined as a controlled type of brain damage produced by electrical means. No doubt some psychiatric symptoms are eliminated ... but this is at the expense of brain damage" (Clinical Psychiatry News, March 1983, p. 4). Although he is a defender of ECT, Duke University psychiatry professor Richard D. Weiner, M.D., Ph.D., has admitted that "the data as a whole must be considered consistent with the occurrence of frontal atrophy following ECT" (Behavioral & Brain Sciences, March 1984, p. 8). By "frontal atrophy" he means atrophy (reduced size) of the frontal lobes of the brain, the frontal lobes being the parts believed to be responsible for higher mental functions. The frontal lobes get most of the electricity in ECT. Dr. Weiner also admits "Breggin's statement that ECT always produces an acute organic brain syndrome is correct" (ibid., p. 42). Organic brain syndrome is organic brain disease.
Psychological testing of those who have had ECT also indicates ECT causes permanent brain damage. For example, in an article in the British Journal of Psychiatry, three psychologists said "The ECT patients' performance was also found to be inferior on the WAIS [Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale]" and "The ECT patients' inferior Bender-Gestalt performance does suggest that ECT causes permanent brain damage" (Donald I. Templer, Ph.D., et al., "Cognitive Functioning and Degree of Psychosis in Schizophrenics given many Electroconvulsive Treatments" Brit. J. Psychiatry, Vol. 123 (1973), p. 441 at pp. 442, 443).
In 1989 in his book The Exercise Prescription for Depression and Anxiety, psychology professor Keith W. Hohnsgard, Ph.D., says "Some who receive ECT appear to suffer both serious and permanent memory loss" (p. 88, emphasis added). A woman who had ECT described these effects ECT had on her memory: "I don't remember things I never wanted to forget - important things - like my wedding day and who was there. A friend took me back to the church where I had my wedding, and it had no meaning to me" (quoted in: Peter R. Breggin, M.D., Electroshock: It's Brain Disabling Effects, p. 36). Professional people who have sought treatment for depression and had ECT have lost a lifetime of professional knowledge and skill to this so-called therapy. (See, for example, Berton Rouche's article in Suggested Reading, below). In one state, Texas, a state law requires those considering ECT be warned about ECT caused memory loss. But in most states those undergoing ECT voluntarily do so without any warning of the brain damage and associated memory loss and intellectual impairment to which they are about to be subjected - the psychiatrist suggesting ECT usually being the person least likely to give this warning. [See copy of this Texas Law, below]
ECT advocates sometimes claim the addition of anesthesia, a muscle paralyzing drug, and oxygenation (making the "patient" breath air or 100% oxygen) prevent ECT-caused brain damage. But neither anesthesia nor muscle paralyzing drugs nor breathing oxygen stop what the electricity does to the brain. Autopsy study, EEGs, and observation of those who have received ECT indicate those given ECT with anesthesia, a muscle paralyzing drug, and forced breathing of air or oxygen experience the same brain damage, memory loss, and intellectual impairment as those given ECT without these modifications.
Some ECT advocates say the newer brief pulse ECT
Claims that the new "unilateral" ECT in which the electricity is run through only one side of the head is less damaging are also false. The idea is to spare the parts of the brain responsible for verbal and mathematical skills (non-emotional, computer-like intellectual functions). These functions are believed to be located in what is misleadingly called the dominant side of the brain. One problem is the difficulty of determining which side of the brain this is in any particular individual. In most people it is the left side, but in some it is the right side, so psychiatrists sometimes inadvertently shock the side of the brain they are trying to spare. The side of the brain intended to get the electricity in unilateral ECT is deceptively called the non-dominant side. This supposedly non-dominant side of the brain is primarily responsible for our emotionality and sexuality, artistic, creative, and musical ability, visual and spatial perception, athletic ability, unconscious mental functions, and some aspects of memory. In the words of neurology professor Oliver Sacks, it is "of the most fundamental importance" because it provides "the physical foundations of the persona, the self" without which "we become computer-like" (The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales, pp. 5, 20). The side of the brain electroshocked in supposedly non-dominant hemisphere unilateral ECT is at least as important to us as the other parts of our brains.
Psychiatrists who use ECT are violating their Hippocratic oath to not harm patients and are guilty of a form of

The Infamous Ward #14...Take a good look!!...Located at the FORMER INFAMOUS CAMARILLO STATE HOSPITAL...1936 - 1997...Or should say "Aushwitz State Hospital"...Somebody needs to stand trial.."Like another Nuremberg Trial"..for all this SHIT that went on here!! This particular ward was the maximum security ward...This is where they would take you if you became a significant problem to the staff and you really needed some extreme measures to control you...This was also known as the violent ward...This was also where you would be brought if you needed to be transferred to a maximum security prison hospital like Atascadero State Hospital..Usually this would happen to you if you became a cronic runaway problem...Of course, why would anybody want to run away from such a nice friendly, safe, country club atmosphere place such as this was..Of course, I`m being cynical..The food was brought into ward #14 by way of food carts and it had it`s own dinning room..Unlike the rest of the hospital where the patients would go in a long single file line to the main dinning hall..sort of herded like cattle...This was also the only ward that had no top floor added to it..It was a single floor ward...This ward was also where many many atrocities occurred...Human beings were treated like animals..Similar to Nazi Germany and the Holocaust...Patients were thrown into side rooms with no running water or toilets available and had to remain there until it was time for their electro-shock treatment which destroyed their brain cells and turned them into "zombies"...And also destroyed their sense of one`s self and their humanity and their SOUL!!...I could go on and on..but what the HELL!!...NO ONE READS THIS SHIT ANYWAY...RIGHT??? EVERYONE IS JUST TOO COMPLACENT TO GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING THAT REALLY MATTERS!!! THE PROOF OF THAT IS THE FACT THAT I NEVER GET ANY FEEDBACK!! NEITHER ON MY BLOGS..NOR ON MY GOOGLE+ ACCOUNT!! WHAT A BUNCH OF "ASSHOLES" WE HAVE ONLINE!!!...RIGHT???EVERYONE IS JUST TOO BUSY WITH ALL THEIR COMPLACENT LITTLE WHIMS AND TOO BUSY TRYING TO BE "TRENDY" TO GIVE A SHIT!! WAKE UP ALL YOU GOOGLE SHEEPLE!!..BEFORE IT`S TOO LATE AND YOU FIND YOURSELF INSIDE A FEMA CAMP!! ALL YOU OBAMA SUPPORTERS OUT THERE..WELL..I GUESS I`VE RANTED ENOUGH..BUT YOU GET THE PICTURE OF WHERE I`M COMING FROM...SO..I GUESS I`M JUST POSTING ALL THIS CRAP JUST FOR MYSELF AND NO ONE ELSE...RIGHT???SHEEPLE???SORRY..BUT AFTER AWHILE I JUST GET FED UP WITH ALL THE BULLSHIT!!AND I HAVE TO LET OFF SOME STEAM!!!

YouTube gave us a better copy...However, you can still make out what it`s about...I saw this film when it first came out on television in 1978...But it was never shown again since...Maybe on some cable channels...The person`s real name that this happened to was "Bill Thomas" and this location was in a maximum security state hospital located in Pennsylvania...All the events described in the film were true actual events that Mr. Thomas experienced and he had to escape, just like in the film, in order to get out of that place...And like it was said in the film he came to California after he escaped...Mr. Thomas then wrote a book about his experience called "Shoe Leather Treatment" which was based on what he witnessed in the institution of the guards kicking the patients to death while they lay helpless on the floor...And also it was a fact that they administered triple doses of thorazine and actually betted on how long it would take for the patient to pass out...And all the evidence gathering that he did was also true and he used all of it against this institution after he got out...I also remember that "Michael Benner" had Bill Thomas on his telephone talk show on KLOS-FM in Los Angeles, at around the year1980, to tell his story on air...Michael Benner left KLOS in 1987 and went into private practice..You could also catch him on KPFK-FM in Los Angeles after he left KLOS...

I remember seeing the movie when it first aired as a TV movie back in 1978, and it has stuck with me since. I've been looking for it on video for 10 years as I would really like to see it again to see if it still resonates. Alan Arkin did an excellent job of conveying the desperation of being trapped. If you liked the Shawshank Redemption, this movie has similar themes-you really feel for the protagonist trapped in a corrupt system. It would also appeal to fans of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest as well. It is hard to believe that this was a made for TV movie, as they are rarely as engaging as this. I wish I knew who I could lobby to get this released on DVD.
Alan Arkin plays Frank Dole, a disturbed but highly intelligent man who is sent to a hospital for the criminally insane to serve time and rehabilitate. But what he discovers there is not what he anticipated. He finds himself in a closed world where guard brutality is an everyday occurrence, where he must learn to 'get well' strictly by his own efforts. After spending years in this daily hell, (for no one ever gets released) he makes plans in preparation to one day escape this institution with his collected proof of it's corruption. This film is arguably the highest quality 'made for TV' movie ever produced. And in my opinion it is the best role Alan Arkin has played in his long career. It is directed by Czeck director Jan Kadar who effectively creates it's dark and ominous mood. At over 2 hours in length, it is truly a long arduous journey... one you are imprisoned with to it's final conclusion. Fifteen years ago I was fortunate enough to record it off a TV broadcast, now-days it is simply unavailable from any source. It still never fails to impress me with each subsequent viewing. Feel free to email with any comments.
Some Behind The Scenes Details Of "The Other Side Of Hell".

I personally knew Bill Thomas, he used to manage my group in the early 90's. He was a fantastically intelligent and sensitive man. This is absolutely a true story, based on real facts and with very little of the plot points changed. Bill would often recount little snippets, details that occurred while he was in the institution. They were both horrific and fascinating, it is difficult to believe that this kind of treatment was actually perpetrated on patients in such places during the 20th century. Both the "Shoe Leather Treatment
If you're reading this, you've probably seen of this movie... That's amazing to me, but I am pleased to know I'm not the only one.

Well, as I have stated... if you are reading this you probably have seen this movie, if you haven't and are still reading, I very well may give away plot points... this shouldn't matter too much as it took the bulk of my life to actually find a copy of the darn thing. So if you wanted to view this movie... You honestly can't unless you REALLY try.
To start, it takes place in a mental institution that is more like a prison than a hospital. The main character, Frank Dole, is committed there hoping to receive medical help... He doesn't. He witnesses another patient (inmate) getting beaten to death, and decides he must escape. Befriending Jim Baker, another inmate who plead insanity at his wife's murder trial, the two try and escape. They fail... But Frank eventually manages to escape with the details of the Hospital's brutality.
There is so much story to go around in this movie, that I can't even begin to delve into it all... Some of my favorite parts include Frank collecting keys he finds; hoping one day to unlock the right door, Jim's involvement with the prison cock fights, and Johnson's insane brutality.
Characters are developed extremely well, and you truly feel for them. At least I did.
Should you ever find a copy of this movie, and you haven't seen it... if you like a good drama, give it a try. I saw it on HBO in 1988 or so, and eventually found somebody who had a video copy of it. It was never released on video, and hardly is shown on TV...
This is one of my top ten favorite movies of all time.

[[ASIN:0874771269 The shoe leather treatment: The inspiring story of Bill Thomas's triumphant nine-year fight for survival in a state hospital for the criminally insane as told to S. L. Stebel]]
It has been quite an experience to personally have known Bill Thomas for the past 38+ years. We lived together, worked together, and are still the best of friends after all these years. It is my deepest desire to keep this book on the shelves for the wonderful insight he has retained all these years, that others may realize that they can go on living happily and healthfully for the years that lie ahead as Bill has managed to do, all the time passing it on to the rest of us.

I read this book many years ago and have not been able to forget it nor what this man went through. This is a true story of how Mr. Thomas was misdiagnosed and abusively treated in the mental institution. A must, must read for those involved in the care of the emotionally disturbed.

Hell.jpgAlan Arkin plays Frank Dole, a disturbed but highly intelligent man who is sent to a hospital for the criminally insane to serve time and rehabilitate. But what he discovers there is not what he anticipated, a closed world where guard brutality is an everyday occurance. He takes years to amass proof and plan for a possible escape. Based on the real life experiences of Bill Thomas (see his book The Shoe Leather Treatment) who served as consultant on the film set. Bill himself purchased this version from me in 2009.This is arguably the highest quality made for tv movie produced, and Alan Arkin's finest work. Directed by Jan Kadar. I am sorry to say that Bill Thomas passed away in May, 2014..

Actress Thelma Todd Found Dead in Pacific Palisades Garage 1935
The death of Hollywood actress Thelma Todd in 1935 hit the world with the impact of the later death of Marilyn Monroe and the murder of Sharon Tate.
During the Depression, the gorgeous blond comedian was a cross between Goldie Hawn and Farrah Fawcett, only more popular. She had starred with the Marx Brothers in ``Horse Feathers`` and ``Monkey Business`` and a string of other hugely successful comedies with ZaSu Pitts (including ``Hot Dogs`` in the early `30s) and Patsy Kelly
Her posh restaurant that bore her name and overlooked the Pacific Ocean in Malibu was the Morton`s/Spago of its day, a watering hole for Hollywood glitterati, politicians and gangsters.
On the morning of Dec. 16, 1935, Todd`s maid found her employer`s body in the garage, slumped over the wheel of her Lincoln convertible. The coroner ruled her death a suicide. Cause of death: carbon monoxide poisoning. To this day, that verdict is on the books as the official explanation of Todd`s death. While a grand jury ruled that Todd committed suicide, it was unable to explain her broken nose, the bruises around her throat and two cracked ribs. Apparently, the grand jury thought Todd also beat herself to death. So who was responsible for Thelma Todd`s death?
