Ex Drug Rep -- Manipulating Doctors
BackBe My Friend -
Ex-Pharma Sales Reps talks about manipulating doctors to sell more drugs.
In this video Gwen discusses some of the tactics used by some pharmaceutical sales reps to get doctors to prescribe their drugs.
This included tactics like minimizing harmful side effects to doctors, presenting statistics in a slanted way, accusing anyone that speaks out against psychiatric drugs as being a Scientologist, psychological profiling of doctors to best know how to convince them to prescribe your drugs, etc.
Gwen Olsen spent fifteen years as a pharmaceutical sales rep working for such healthcare giants as Johnson & Johnson, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Abbott Laboratories. She enjoyed a successful, fast-paced career until several conscious-altering experiences began awakening her to the dangers lurking in every American medicine cabinet. Her most poignant lessons, however, came as both victim and survivor of life-threatening adverse drug reactions. After leaving pharmaceutical sales in 2000, Gwen worked in the natural foods industry first as an Account Manager for Nature's Way, and then as a Regional Sales Manager for Gaia Herbs. She is currently a writer, speaker, and natural health consultant.
The United States health care system is killing Americans at an alarming rate, even though we spend over fifteen percent of the Gross National Product (GNP) on health care. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, our health care outcomes ranked only fifteenth among twenty-five industrialized nations worldwide. Adverse effects from prescription drugs have become the third-leading killer of Americans. Only heart disease and cancer claim more lives. We trust our doctors to inform us and our government to protect us from medical malfeasance that may put profits ahead of consumer health and safety. But the fine line walked by the FDA between the interests of the pharmaceutical manufacturers and the American public has continually been crossed. The result is the unleashing of an unprecedented number of lethal drugs on the U.S. market!
Gwen Olsen learned firsthand the danger that lurks in every American's medicine cabinet, working in the pharmaceutical industry. But her most poignant education would come as a victim and, ultimately, as a survivor.

from the the time i was about 7-8 i was on antidepressants and god knows what else. i remember at one point taking like 8 diff. pills a day. and my behavior only got worse after i was put on those things. i was on them until eventually got off all the drugs at age 16.one day just flipped out because i wasnt used to functioning without these drugs. ive gotten better over time but its been 2 years and im just unable to feel normal anymore. i try to have faith and hope but sometimes i cant take it

I have an arachnoid brain cyst, for 10 years, doctors gave me nothing except harsh pain killers for my headaches instead of organic treatment. at the time, i was young and my mom honestly believed the doctors wanted to help me.
after a few years of doing my own research, i know smoke weed to control my headaches. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE! and this video just proves my theories correct.

Thank you Gwen, for speaking out. NaturalNews Insider emails me these stories all the time. But what can a person with a neurobiological brain disorder do, if not try pharmaceuticals? My son has an unidentified psychosis -- he has disorganized thinking and is slow-moving; often catatonic. He got progressively worse without treatment. Now he's been on Risperdal, Lexapro, & Clonipim for two weeks... and he is a LITTLE bit improved. But it's scary. What can we do?

Who are you calling "baby"? I'm 60 yrs. old, 'been married for almost 30 yrs, have 2grown & married children, and 2 grand children. 'Have a BA in Psych & worked in the field a few years, then worked with diabled. Now that I'm certified in Montessori, my joy is working with young children. My MD has confirmed my loss. It has been devastating for me and my husband. I am hoping that by sharing my story it may prevent a lot of suffering. The brain and nerve damage these drugs cause is real.

Everyone should get a copy of the book "Murder by Injection" by Eustace Mullins. What Gwen has to say is only the tip of the iceberg.
