Because People
Don't Belong in the Trash!

The American Psychiatric Association has established a new diagnostic category which will classify many medically ill patients with a somatic symptom disorder or a mentally manufactured illness, when many truly suffer from any number of well-diagnosed and immensely debilitating immune system dysfunctions.

Lyme Disease. Fibromyalgia. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. M.E. Epstein Barr Virus. Multiple Chemical Sensitivities.

These are a few of the misunderstood diseases that could fall into this wastebasket diagnostic category.
The consequences are catastrophic.
Please support our cause.
