Description

Dr. McFillin analyzes the manipulation tactics employed by the pharmaceutical industry to alter our perceptions of depression and mental health. He breaks down the notorious Zoloft "blob" commercial from 2001, uncovering its powerful role in shaping public understanding of depression and how we treat it. Many of these psychological manipulation techniques are still in use today. Without awareness of these strategies, we risk falling prey to well-documented methods of mind control. The first step in this resistance isn't anger or action—it's awareness. Open your eyes. See the manipulation for what it is. Because once you can spot the strings of the puppet masters, you can begin to cut them. 

Your mind is your own. Guard it fiercely.
