Receptor Science

All doctors know receptor science. Why do any believe drugs (opiates) cause addiction?

Receptor science (100+ years old) says there are NO addictive drugs. Drugs fill receptors. What empties those receptors (injury, PTSD) causes a desire for pain relieving drugs. Drugs CAN'T cause addiction. People take pain relievers to relieve pain. The "recreation" in Recreational Drugs is pain relief.

Supporting evidence ==> Dr. Lonny Shavelson in his book "Hooked" said that 70% of female heroin addicts had been sexually abused in childhood.

And ==> Addiction is a symptom of PTSD says Nobel Prize Winner in Medicine Eric Kandel in his book, "The Disordered Mind." It is an old problem. "In Over 100 Years Nobody Said A Thing" by M. Simon February 11, 2025

And ==> PTSD in substance use disorder - BMC Psychiatry Published: 07 August 2025

...rates of trauma exposure among adults with SUD (Substance Use Disorder) are estimated to be as high as 95% [2, 3]; and among those who report trauma exposure, the prevalence of SUD is three times higher than among non-exposed individuals [4]. Child abuse is often identified as a prominent risk factor for substance use [5,6,7].

Help me end the Drug War by making this science well known.

What I have presented is a very simplified view of "Receptor Science" that covers the essentials of the pain reliever case. There is qiute a bit more going on than I have mentioned here. Habituation for instance. Also the body makes receptor fillers, makes receptors, prunes receptors, and empties receptors.

In Over 100 Years Nobody Said A Thing

What scares the cartels the most is that America will stop fighting addictive drugs.

Receptor science (100+ years old) says there are NO addictive drugs. Drugs fill receptors. What empties those receptors (injury, PTSD) causes a desire for pain relieving drugs. Drugs CAN'T cause addiction. People take pain relievers to relieve pain.

Another American war based on lies. I hope we get tired of it. Real Soon.

The knowledge is over 100 years old. Why didn't somebody say something? The big pharma case about "addictive drugs" would have been a perfect case to bring this up.

Multiple states have reached a tentative new agreement with the Sackler family, who made billions of dollars marketing OxyContin, the drug that set off the U.S. opioid crisis.

New York State Attorney General Letitia James said in a statement that the Sackler family will pay up to $6.5 billion, while their privately held company, Purdue Pharma, will pay nearly $900 million.

If the deal goes through, the funds will go to the states, local governments, and individuals that have sued Purdue and the Sacklers. State and local governments have spent opioid settlement funds on addressing the harms caused by the opioid crisis.

The U.S. opioid crisis has killed tens of thousands of people each year for more than a decade. There were 81,083 opioid deaths in the U.S. in 2023, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The "crisis" assumes drugs cause addiction and that any distribition of them through unauthorized channells or excessive distribution in aurhorized channels is a threat to the community.

The likely actual cause was an uptick in child abuse 15 or 20 years prior. Or it could be Service Connected. Dr. Lonny Shavelson in his book "Hooked" said that 70% of female heroin addicts had been sexually abused in childhood. We are making war on abused children and disabled vets.

You have to ask - why didn't a doctor or nurse object? Why didn't the Sackler family or Purdue Pharma object? They stood to save billions if drugs weren't the cause of the "opiod crisis".

Think of all the publications with doctors and nurses on staff. In 100+ years no one has contradicted "addictive drugs". Why? It will be a very interesting topic for discussion. I could have written "Receptor science....." 50 years ago if I had thought about it and I'm a layman relative to the subject. What actually happened is that I got a message, a voice in my head (the Head Office?? ;-), "Write something about drugs and receptors." About two weeks later I started on the subject with Proof - The Government Is Lying About DRUGS and finished about a week after that with Better Proof - The Government Is Lying About DRUGS.

Somebody ought to sidle up close to Doctor Rand Paul when convenient and ask the Senator what he knows about receptor science. Then give him the whole story and ask why he kept silent. Ask all of the rest of the doctors in Congress as well.

The closest we come to a direct statement on the subject other than mine is Nobel Prize Winner in Medicine Eric Kandel who says in his book, "The Disordered Mind" that addiction is a symptom of PTSD. Which is true but does not really cover the full scope of the evidence.

You want to know how entrenched the war is? No Publication, Left, Middle, Right, MSM, Alt. Media, anyone, has suggested ending it based on it being run on false premises.

Let me add. I notified all my anti-prohibition friends and publications some months back that drugs don't cause addiction. They ALL remain silent. Drug war profits must be good all around, eh?

The Party of Abused Children

I have been calling Democrats that for at least a decade. Drug use, sexual deviance, and displaced rage are the expected symptoms.

The displaced rage means the 'issues' are not the issue. Rage is all their issues have in common.

We are not fighting politics. We are fighting mental illness. Have you ever seen that diagnosis before? It is pretty obvious isn't it? Yet every one treats the xxx issue (think trans 'women' in sports as an example) as if it were rational and just a matter of logic to resolve.

No one calls out the mental illness. To do that you need a way to decide. Not just hand waving. Abused child PTSD fits. When I had it I was a determined Democrat.

"That is crazy" will normally be enough of a rebuttal if people think of the current Democrat Party as a collection of crazies. Well, aren't they?

The Role of PTSD in History

Abused child PTSD causes narcissism and displaced rage - the "issues" are not the issue. It is a mental illness. Hitler was an abused child. Marx was an abused child. Stalin was an abused child. Putin is an abused child. Their rage from the abuse destroys their morals. The anger is the disease.

Some abused children crave power and control, which is why there are so many in politics. We are not confronting a political party or a political philosphy, despite there being so many bad ones. We are facing a mental illness. Abused child PTSD and the associated displaced rage and narcissism.

Drug abuse and sexual deviance are other possible side effects. Medical schools in America teach - addiction is a symptom of PTSD. Marx had a drug problem. Hitler was a secret addict.

"Inside Every Progressive Is An Abused Child Screaming To Get Out" - at one time I was both.

From my own personal experience - every gang member I knew, when I was in one, was an abused child. No one in criminal justice ever remarks on that. Some of them must know.

Long term PTSD (everyone gets it short term) is in part genetic. The other part is the initiating trauma. Me? I'm no longer an abused child, haven't been for about 50 years, I gave up my anger.

Should you have the problem the simplest advice I can give is ==> The Anger IS the Disease.

"The Fourth Way" by P.D. Ouspensky helped me a lot. You can probably skip all the 'magical universes' stuff and stick to the healing recipes. One of which is "Do Not Express Negative Emotions" because it reinforces them and you don't want them anymore. That Hitler guy was full of them.

October 7th - We are fighting a mental illness

My guess is that all the 7 Oct attackers were abused children. Ordinary people cannot generate that kind of murderous rage. They displaced their anger (displacement is very common with abused child PTSD) on the people their religion told them to.

War as displaced anger? Hitler was an abused child.

It is also a problem with politics.

If you look closely at Democrats, their policies are driven by mental illness (PTSD caused by child abuse). They have the symptoms. Sexual deviance. Drug use. Permanently angry. We treat them as at least somewhat rational. They are not rational. They are mentally ill.

Proof they are not rational? Their policies are incoherent. “Gays for Palestine”.

America is being made a victim of displaced rage (a PTSD symptom). Rage is what their issues have in common.

I know all this because I used to be an abused child (I gave up my anger).

"Inside Every Progressive Is An Abused Child Screaming To Get Out"

Some people with PTSD crave power and control. (the German guy for one, Stalin for another) - That would be most politicians. Which is why politics is so dysfunctional.

===

My theory of war - PTSD builds up in a society. War is then used to kill off the violent PTSD (men).

To head off war - treat the PTSD.

We are fighting a mental illness - Part 1


Update: 15 Dec 2023 0934z

I want to add here a few examples of current events, US politics, and PTSD:

Medical schools in America teach - addiction is a symptom of PTSD. PTSD is in part genetic - as are most mental illnesses. Donald Trump's brother died of alcoholism. So likely Trump - who shuns alcohol - has PTSD as well.

Joe B. ? Look at his kids. If he did the job on them (as reported) then it was very likely done to him. Probably his wife Jill is one or has the genes. People with PTSD are attracted to each other. (I speak from experience)

How about those Florida Republicans into threesomes? Deviant sex is a symptom of PTSD.

And then of course Putin - a known abused child and Xi a known alcoholic.

It is everywhere in politics which is full of alcoholics and deviant sex. Epstein turned that into a career.

PTSD (most often caused by child abuse these days) is everywhere in politics. Ever hear it remarked on? Me either.

Modern feminism was designed by abused children. The man hatred is a tell. As I said, "Everywhere in politics."


===

So you may be wondering how did I fix my PTSD? I read P. D. Ouspensky's "The Fourth Way" and applied it.

The simplest explanation? The Anger IS the Disease - give it up.




Update: 17 Dec 2023 0144z

Karl Marx was an abused child. He likely had abused child PTSD. His early drug use is confirmation of that. People with abused child PTSD have to deal with displaced anger, narcissism and rage. "The world owes me a living" is one way the narcissim gets expressed. PTSD is a mental illness.




Update: 08 Mar 2024 2254z
Some stories about the pervasiveness of the Islamic abuse of boys. If I was to design a religion for abused boys it would be quite a lot like Islam. Some place to direct and discharge the anger. Jews. Infidels. No drugs or alcohol means no relief other than taking out the anger on Jews and infidels.

We are fighting a mental illness

I just got a one day suspension from YouTube for posting this:

We are not up against a political party. We are up against a mental illness. Abused child PTSD and the associated displaced anger and narcissism.

Do you suppose there is something to it? The only thing Democrat issues have in common is anger. And for a prime historical example of the type: Hitler was an abused child.
