WHO WE ARE
What Is the Citizens Commission on Human Rights® (CCHR)?
The Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) is a non-profit mental health watchdog organization dedicated to eradicating abuse and restoring human rights to the field of mental health.
REPORT PSYCHIATRIC ABUSE
If you or someone you know has been harmed by mental health treatment or psychiatric drugs, we want to talk with you. All information is strictly confidential.
WARNING: Anyone wishing to discontinue or change the dose of a psychiatric drug is cautioned to do so only under the supervision of a physician because of potentially dangerous withdrawal symptoms.
REPORT ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS
The FDA admits that probably only 1% of all adverse drug effects are reported by patients or physicians. Only by reporting all adverse drug reactions will the true magnitude of harm of psychiatric drugging be known. MedWatch is the federal reporting system in the U.S. Please report adverse drug reactions to MedWatch (click here).
