The Yiddish idiom “epes tut zikh” (????? ??? ???) loosely translates to “something is happening”. It expresses the idea that one does not know the reason for whatever is happening. For example, being stuck in traffic without knowing why is “epes tut zikh.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things are happening today on many fronts with no discernible reasons to explain exactly why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, the physical Universe in which we live is unthinking, and there are no “reasons” for things that happen solely in the physical Universe, in the sense that the Universe has “thought” about it with some purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, living beings do think and have purposes, and so can have (but do not have to have) a reason for doing something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we look around we see any number of events and situations with no clearly discernible reasons. If there are reasons, they might be considered hidden. Or in many cases, there are so many possible reasons that no one can agree on them, provoking constant and debilitating argumentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If one actually knew all the true reasons for some unwanted event or situation, it could theoretically be terminatedly handled. Whenever such an event or situation occurs which persists and resists being handled, the true reasons are generally widely unknown or unacknowledged; and speculation, gossip, and arguments predominate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examples:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Antisemitism
Random senseless violence
School shootings
Motiveless and unpredictable suicide
Racism
War
Terrorism
Religious intolerance
Sexual discrimination
Pandemic outbreak<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is to the advantage of certain professions to let, or even encourage, this kind of negative situation to persist. This is called “the dangerous environment,<\/a>” in which it is thought that one’s livelihood would be compromised or endangered if the situation were to be totally handled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes professions which require a dangerous environment for their continued existence, because they make their living off of it \u2014 such as the politician, the policeman, the newspaperman, the insurance salesman, the undertaker, the terrorist, the psychiatrist, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Does psychiatry Persist?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since 1969 CCHR has documented and exposed the failures, fraud and abuse of psychiatry; yet psychiatry persists in its relentless quest to harm as many people as it can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“So, why is the truth of psychiatry’s consistent record of getting it wrong and doing damage not<\/em> setting society free to toss psychiatry on the garbage heap of history?”
[10 Reasons Why Psychiatry Lives On<\/em><\/a>, by Bruce Levine, PhD]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“How is it that governments keep investing billions of dollars into psychiatry\u2014known within the mental health system as a “non-science”\u2014to improve conditions it admits it cannot cure?”
[“Why Psychiatry Sees Itself As A Dying Industry<\/em><\/a>“]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These references highlight many of the hidden reasons psychiatry continues its fraudulent and abusive practices. Underlying these is a common human failing — the inability to confront evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evil takes a bit of confronting. One must start with observation and education. The information is there; the reasons are there; we’ve pointed you to it. Find Out! Fight Back!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
