I am glad that hopefully Britney’s legal cases will be removed to the Federal Courts jurisdiction. I think the Federal Courts are the best jurisdiction to address the protection of Britney’s precious constitutional civil rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The Federal Court is really the only “competent court of jurisdiction” for a case like Britney’s.
Britney has committed no crimes. And Britney was released from medical confinement for lack of sufficient medical justification to further violate her civil rights. Even though the current criteria for medical confinement in my opinion is far to biased, and liberal in favor of commitment. And ripe for abuse. Especially where considerable money, and wealth is concerned.
Yet Britney has been stripped of all her civil rights. Her considerable assets seized. And Britney subjected to imprisonment of the most cruel kind with physical restraints, and dangerous chemical drug restraints. This really sends a chilling message to anyone that might want to seek mental health care. What happen to Britney could happen to you. And you may not have the resources to protect your civil rights.
As to Britney’s mental state. She has been an extremely high functioning young woman. Creating very high quality art. Hit CD’s. Dance, wonderful music videos, acting, fashion, and performance. Managing a multi million dollar group of businesses. That conservatively estimated generates 120 million dollars into the economy each year. All while going through a very brutal divorce, and child custody case over her two small children.
How anyone could come up with the conclusion that the young woman described above is incompetent to manage her own life is beyond comprehension. And I am being very, very kind. With out question Britney has suffered from a TREMENDOUS amount of stress. But I think she has handled it admirably. Though she has understandably had problems getting adequate rest, and sleep. You would have problems too.
Britney sought out medical help for her problems getting her rest, and sleep. And that is when her big problems started. In stead of providing Britney a prescription along the guidelines in my post “Ways To Help Get Your Rest Britney”. And being someone that Britney could talk to about her problems who could therapeutically listen to Britney. This doctor in stead hits Britney with two very powerful, poisonous, toxic, psych med’s. That within three days had Britney completely disabled. And temporarily out of her mind.
This is medically equivalent to going to a brain surgeon for a bad stress, or tension headache. Then having this brain surgeon do surgery on your head. And put a hole in your head. Just because they can get away with it. And because it pays better than properly treating your tension headache with a little over the counter Tylenol, and a little therapy at stress reduction.
As I have said before. I don’t think that Britney suffers from any true organic mental illness. Few people diagnosed with true organic mental illness these days really have it. And even if she does have it. She only has a touch of it. I think mostly they are mistaking gifted-ness for mental illness. Britney is a very high functioning individual. And a mostly happy person. That does not overly depend on drugs, alcohol or other mind impairing chemicals for coping.
Britney is a soft, sweet, motherly, girlie girl. But she is also a very dominating, controlling little stick of dynamite. it’s this gifted explosive side that makes people want to control her. But frankly, I think she has it under good control for the most part it seems to me. She has just been under a tremendous amount of stress these past few years.
In situations like this it really is hard to tell who are the good guys, and the bad guys. Her family. Or her man Sam. The fact is they are both probably trying to do the right things for Britney. But they are probably both very susceptible to exploitation that is not in Britney’s best interest.
Especially exploitation by the psychologic, and psychiatric medical community. These people are experts at playing mind games with you. And most people get taken in by their BS all the time. This is why any benefit of the doubt must always be in favor of following Britney’s wishes. It’s her life. Not anyone else’s.
In conclusion my prescription for Britney would be that she keep taking good care of the basics I have mentioned so many times (safety, nutrition, hydration, exercise, rest, recreation, and fun). Continue creating, and developing your art, gifts, and other positive non drug coping skills. Avoid over use of drugs, and alcohol. For rest, and or sleep problems you can use my post to you about “Ways To Get Your Rest Britney”.
With respect to your legal problems. Hire the most experienced aggressive legal representation you can get. And expect them to do the best they can do for you. And give the rest up to God. Find a good high quality cognitive behavioral talk therapist to help you positively work through any emotional problems you may need help with like stress reduction. Anger, and hurt over what you have been through lately. Sleep problems. Or any thing else that may be bothering you. Or that you feel you would like some help or enrichment of coping skills with.
But NO PSYCH MED’S OR DRUGS. Other than the type of drugs I mentioned in my post to help you occasionally get your sleep. If they try to push drugs on you. Run the other way. You now see why I told you to watch out for doctors, and therapist pushing drugs. See what happens. You may have to go through 3 or 4 therapist before you find one that is right for you. You need one that you click with. And that can be a different one for everyone.
If all of this does not work for you. You may need the drug pushing type of psychiatric medical care. But I doubt it. But if you do. Find the best you can find at a good teaching medical center. I call this crock pot psychiatry. First you load up the crock pot with all kinds of psych med’s. Then you stir it, and put the lid on it. Then let it cook for a couple of weeks. Then take the lid off. Stir it a little. Maybe add some more drug ingredients. Put the lid back on it, and let it cook some more. Collect a bid fat fee…
Have a good life. And enjoy your life Britney Baby…
Love
Your Fan

Update to Britney Has Committed No Crimes
This is an update to my comments about what I call crock pot psychiatry above. I would like to say that I am completely against the use of any psych med’s because they are so over prescribed. But I can’t. These drugs have injured, or killed millions of people who should never have been on these drugs in the first place. More Americans are injured, and killed from drug injuries, and accidents than any other people in the world. From every kind of prescription drugs.
Americans makeup less than 5% of the world population. But Americans buy, and consume over 50% of all pharmaceuticals world wide. Due to over prescribing by US doctors because of kickbacks from the drug companies to the doctors.
But there are a very, very small number of people who do suffer from very severe, frank, organic mental illness. And no amount of stress reduction, improvements in coping skills, improvements in emotional supports, or improvements in life style will cure, or fix things sufficiently to relive their suffering. So, for this very limited number of patients. The careful, conservative use of psych med’s may be helpful, and justify the considerable dangers to health created by these drugs very dangerous side effects.
Never the less, most of these patients could, and should be given a regular trial of very slowly weaning them off of these med’s after a remission of symptoms of approximately 6 months to a year. And after they, and their family have had time to make improvements in stress reduction, coping skills, healthy environment, and life style habits, with strong positive emotional supports in place.
I think it should be the goal of all mental health care professionals to assist all their patients that can to be able to live, and enjoy life under their own power if they wish too. Unencumbered, impaired, or burdened by dependancy on more chemical supports than they really need. This is not to say that patients shouldn’t be able to have all the chemical supports they need, or want that they can safely have. But I think a good health care provider will always assist their patients in maintaining as much choice over dependancy as possible.
Personally, I think everyone should aspire to spend less time under the influence of any mind altering chemical substances each week, than they do spend under the influence of some kind of mind altering chemical substance each week. To my way of thinking that is the only way you can truly be all there for your-self, your-family, and your-friends. I think that is what sobriety in the larger sense is really about.
Many, if not all patients will be able to return to normal functioning without any further medication help. Other than possibly the occasional use of something to help them get their rest, and sleep as I outlined in my post “Ways To Help You Get Your Rest Britney”. And if they need to go back on med’s they will probably require less medication support. And will have derived some health benefits from removing the daily drug load from their system for a while.
Still, there is a very, very small group of individuals who’s illness is so severe, and their suffering so great that they may not benefit from any weaning off of their med’s. But this is an extremely small number of very severely debilitated patients that very, very few mental patients fit into.
And FOR GOD SAKES! If it ant broke, don’t fix it. Not everyone with some form of true organic mental illness needs to be treated, or medicated. Especially when you consider that some of the research seems to indicate that some of the psych med’s, and treatments cause brain damage, and mental illness them-self. If they are relatively happy, or content, functional, and healthy. You may just be mistaking the eccentricities of genius for mental illness.
Consider Albert Einstein. While his peers were thinking about work, a job, their love life. Albert was flunking out of school. Drifting through the days. Wondering what it would be like to ride on a beam of LIGHT! And that is why we now have the theory of relativity. And much more. Of course now a days poor Einstein would have been in treatment from the time he was a child. And continually drugged up on psych med’s.
It’s time to stop injuring, and doping up our gifted people like Britney just to try and make them as ordinary as us. That’s not what they are. And it’s cruel to try and force them to be…
