Psychiatric Association. The Third Edition (DSM III) was
published in 1980 and was considered to be a landmark
transformation for the field of psychiatry.
4. “each of the mental disorders is conceptualized as a
clinically significant behavioral or psychological
syndrome”.

increase in goal-directed activity or psychomotor agitation
excessive involvement in pleasurable activities that have a high potential
for painful consequences
3. The mood disturbance is sufficiently severe to cause marked
impairment in occupational functioning or in usual social activities
or relationships with others, or to necessitate hospitalization to
prevent harm to self or others, or there are psychotic features.
4. The symptoms are not due to the direct physiological effects of a
substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication, or other treatment)
or a general medical condition (e.g., hyperthyroidism).

G. Psychotropic medications:
Definition: Psychotropic medication: Any medication capable of affecting
the mind, emotions, and behavior.
From the Greek psycho-, the mind + trop, a turning = (capable of) turning the mind. -- Merriam Webster’s
Medical Dictionary
Psychotropic
1. adj. -- affecting mental activity, behavior, or perception, as a moodaltering drug.
2. noun -- a psychotropic drug, as a tranquilizer, sedative, or
antidepressant.
Random House Unabridged Dictionary, © Random House, Inc. 2006.
Psychotropic drugs are those that affect the function, behavior, or
experience of the mind. While their exact mechanism of action is
not known, psychotropic drugs are thought to act upon the
biochemistry of the brain and positively affect thinking
mechanisms, emotional control, mood, and other behavioral
processes. -- Ayd F. Lexicon of Psychiatry, Neurology, and the Neurosciences. 1995.
Baltimore:Williams & Wilkins.
H.
Advertising
A.
B.
in 1997, the FDA loosened regulations for marketing of drugs to
consumers
“1997 change [in DTCA laws] unleashed an unprecedented
onslaught of commercials. By 1999, the average American was
exposed to nine prescription drug advertisements on television
every day. The number of television ads increased 40-fold
between 1994 and 2000.“ Dr. John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken
Promise of American Medicine, HarperCollins, September 2004, p. 152.
C.
D.
E.
Advertisements can give drug name, name condition without
disclosing all risks
Ads must mention important risks and provide a statement
explaining that additional information is available
Advertising makes you feel a certain way
I.
Science:
A. “science” would have us believe that we feel a
certain way because of the chemical levels in our
brains.
B. lots of scientific theories about neurotransmitters
C. Serotonin, Dopamine, GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric
acid)
•
currently, the most popular class of medications is
the SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)
Dopamine & GABA
Neurotransmitter
Theory
GABA = Gamma-aminobutyric acid

E. Science refuting “science”
• “Although it is often stated with great confidence that depressed
people have a serotonin or norepinephrine deficiency, the evidence
actually contradicts these claims”. Professor Emeritus of
Neuroscience, Elliot Valenstein, in Blaming the Brain (1998), which reviews
the evidence for the serotonin hypothesis. Valenstein ES (1998) Blaming the brain: The truth about
drugs and mental health. New York: Free Press. 292 p.
• “A serotonin deficiency for depression has not been found”.
Psychiatrist Joseph Glenmullen, clinical instructor of psychiatry at Harvard
Medical School, in Prozac Backlash (2000). Glenmullen J (2001) Prozac backlash: Overcoming the
dangers of prozac, zoloft, paxil and other antidepressants with safe, effective alternatives. New York: Simon and Schuster. 384 p.
E. Science refuting “science”
(continued)
• “I spent the first several years of my career doing full-time
research on brain serotonin metabolism, but I never saw any
convincing evidence that any psychiatric disorder, including
depression, results from a deficiency of brain serotonin. In fact, we
cannot measure brain serotonin levels in living human beings so
there is no way to test this theory. Some neuroscientists would
question whether the theory is even viable, since the brain does not
function in this way, as a hydraulic system”. Stanford psychiatrist David
Burns, winner of the A.E. Bennett Award given by the Society for Biological
Psychiatry for his research on serotonin metabolism, when asked about the
scientific status of the serotonin theory in 2003. Lacasse JR, Gomory T (2003) Is graduate social
work education promoting a critical approach to mental health practice? J Soc Work Educ 39: 383–408.
“Indeed, no abnormality of serotonin in depression has ever been
demonstrated”. Psychiatrist David Healy, former secretary of the British
Association for Psychopharmacology and historian of the SSRIs, in Let
Them Eat Prozac (2004). Healy D (2004) Let them eat prozac: The unhealthy relationship between the
pharmaceutical companies and depression. New York: New York University. 351
E. Science refuting “science”
(continued)
• if there is so much controversy, and no clear proof, then why do
so many “scientists” (physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists)
believe so strongly in the serotonin or neurotransmitter theory?
• 2 Tim 4: 3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure
sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will
accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own
desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn
aside to myths.

God’s Perspective -- 1 Corinth 2:6-16.
Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are mature; a wisdom,
however, not of this age nor of the rulers of this age, who are passing
away; 7but we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom
which God predestined before the ages to our glory; 8the wisdom which
none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it
they would not have crucified the Lord of glory; 9but just as it is written,
"THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD,
AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT
GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.“ 10For to us God
revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even
the depths of God. 11For who among men knows the thoughts of a man
except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God
no one knows except the Spirit of God. 12Now we have received, not the
spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know
the things freely given to us by God, 13which things we also speak, not
in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit,
combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words. 14But a natural man
does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to
him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually
appraised. 15But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is
appraised by no one. 16For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE
LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ.
II. God’s Perspective -- 1 Corinth 2:14-16.
But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they
are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are
spiritually appraised. 15But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he
himself is appraised by no one. 16For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND
OF THE LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind
of Christ.

Psychiatry and psychology are supposed to be the study of the
mind and soul, but they are largely based on conjecture and
theories that amount to a de facto religion masquerading as
science. (Piaget, Jung, Erickson, Freud… believed…)
The religion of psychiatry begins with wrong foundation and tenets,
ends with wrong conclusions and principles.
Don’t confuse scientific methods and scientific vocabulary for “true
science”
God’s Word is sufficient and supreme. You don’t need initials after
your last name to counsel people effectively.
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than
any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul
and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the
thoughts and intentions of the heart.
III. The Mind Body Connection
A.
•
•
Scripture corroborates and affirms the connection between the
mind and body
Psalm 32:3-4 When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted
away Through my groaning all day long. For day and night Your
hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was drained away as with the
fever heat of summer.
Psalm 38:1-10, 17-18 O LORD, rebuke me not in Your wrath,
And chasten me not in Your burning anger. 2For Your arrows have
sunk deep into me, And Your hand has pressed down on me.
3There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation;
There is no health in my bones because of my sin. 4For my
iniquities are gone over my head; As a heavy burden they weigh
too much for me. 5My wounds grow foul and fester Because of my
folly. 6I am bent over and greatly bowed down; I go mourning all
day long. 7For my loins are filled with burning, And there is no
soundness in my flesh. 8I am benumbed and badly crushed; I
groan because of the agitation of my heart. 9Lord, all my desire is
before You; And my sighing is not hidden from You. 10My heart
throbs, my strength fails me; And the light of my eyes, even that
has gone from me.
17For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.
18For I confess my iniquity; I am full of anxiety because of my sin.

IV. Biblical Perspective: Biblical Anthropology
A.
There are two types of people in the world: believers and
unbelievers
V. Biblical Principles:
A.
Sin is Sin – personal responsibility for sin
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of
God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ezek 18:4b The soul who sins will die
Lev 5:17 “Now if a person sins and does any of the things
which the Lord has commanded not to be done, though he was
unaware, still he is guilty and shall bear his punishment.
Rom 2:15 – the Law of God is written on our hearts
“objection” – but God made me this way!
first: God didn’t make us this way – sin did
second: God would not command us to obey if He did not also
provide the means by which we can obey.
1 Cor 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is
common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to
be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation
will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to
endure it.
B.
Symptoms are for a reason, suffering is for a reason
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
psychotropic medication can help to improve symptoms, but it
does not fix the problem
the problem is sin (either the proximate cause or the root
cause)
symptoms and suffering tell us that something is wrong!
symptoms and suffering point us to Christ
Matt 11:28-29 “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavyladen, and I will give you rest. “Take My yoke upon you and
learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will
find rest for your souls.
James 1: 2-4 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you
encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith
produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result,
so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Romans 5: 3-5 And not only this, but we also exult in our
tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance;
and perseverance, proven character; and proven character,
hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God
has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit
who was given to us.
C. Case: Counseling a dying Christian man who was in chronic pain:
o
o
o
o
§
§
§
God is sovereign over symptoms, suffering and pain
God could take away the pain if He wanted to right?
God can bless us through suffering
we can glorify God through our suffering and pain
Caveat: we can never really know the degree of someone’s
suffering and pain therefore we should be slow to judge someone
who is taking medication to alleviate suffering (pain medication or
psychotropics)
in general, the alleviation of suffering is a good and compassionate
thing
the Bible does not prohibit the use of medications to alleviate pain
and suffering – it is more concerned with motives and issues of the
heart
Prov 31:6-7 Give strong drink to him who is perishing, And wine to
him whose life is bitter. Let him drink and forget his poverty And
remember his trouble no more.
D. “Is there any reason for a Christian to use a psychotropic
medication?”
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
non-believers need the gospel of Jesus Christ
believers need the gospel of Jesus Christ
Sufficiency of Scripture – 2 Peter 1:3
mental health disorders are spiritual disorders, not chemical ones
like Diabetes or an infection.
Principle:
Principle: God is sovereign over our circumstances
Practice: biblical counseling first
Practice: prayer, meditation, introspection, biblical counseling &
discipleship
last resort: medication – may help with symptoms, continue to
address the heart issues. medication – not because of a failure of
the Word of God, but more to help a weaker brother or sister with
symptoms while we continue to address the heart.

VI. Biblical Perspective on:
A. Generalized Anxiety Disorder
1.
Natural fear
2.
Sinful fear
Prevents us from obeying God’s commands
Causes us to disobey God’s commands
Causes us to act selfishly
Comes from unbiblical thinking
Comes from unbelief or a lack of faith
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
3.
Holy Fear (fear of the Lord)
a.
brings joy, peace, assurance, confidence
4.
Fear (anxiety) and respect are inextricably linked and proportionate
a.
Idols of the heart
VI. Biblical Perspective on:
B. Panic DSO:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Usually assoc with an intense overwhelming fear of death, loss of
control, fear of panic attack, perceived threat, seek after quick
relief or escape
idol of safety, comfort, well-being,
focus on feelings rather than God’s promises
seek relief, comfort, and refuge from something other than God
5.
Christians should have no fear of death -- Heb 2:14-15 Therefore,
since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise
also partook of the same, that through death He might render
powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15
and might free those who through fear of death were subject to
slavery all their lives.
6.
lack of trust in God’s protection -- Prov 3:25-26 Do not be afraid of
sudden fear Nor of the onslaught of the wicked when it comes; 26
For the Lord will be your confidence And will keep your foot from
being caught.
VI. Biblical Perspective on:
C. Depression:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Usually a disparity in expectations
discontent rooted in pride
distrust of God’s promises and sovereignty
Expectations not being met
joy and pleasure from wrong things
idols of the heart: Ezekiel 14:1-8
VI. Biblical Perspective on:
D. Bipolar DSO:
•
•
extreme lack of discipline of the mind
prideful delusions of grandeur
Phil 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable,
whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is
of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of
praise, dwell on these things.
VI. Biblical Perspective on:
E.
Schizophrenia:
•
•
•
extreme lack of discipline of the mind
Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel Ch 4:27-37
his prideful and exalted view of himself was blasphemous and lead
to his psychosis
VII. We are not fighting “mental health disorders”
We are engaged in a spiritual battle.
•
1 Peter 5: 8-10 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your
adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking
someone to devour. 9 But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing
that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished
by your brethren who are in the world. 10 After you have
suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to
His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm,
strengthen and establish you.
•
Eph 6: 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood but
against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces
of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in
the heavenly places.
•
Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Depression, Bipolar
Disorder, Schizophrenia
•
•
What do people with these disorders have in common?
An intense inward focus – the Bible calls this selfishness and pride
•
Patterns of wrong and unbiblical thoughts that have become
habitual
2 Corinth 10: 5-6 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing
raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every
thought captive to the obedience of Christ, and we are ready to
punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.
Rom 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of
God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Philipp 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable,
whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is
of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of
praise, dwell on these things.
