Controversial and often iconoclastic, Dr. Edmunds is not fearful to speak the truth. He has an innate ability to connect with distressed persons and is a voice of reason and compassion.

Dr. Dan L. Edmunds, Ed.D. we are all shaped by the society and the family structures in which we have encountered. Thus, concepts of 'mental illness' or the 'unruly child' all take shape and form by the experience one has in the family and ultimately in society. These are not biological processes, but rather social and political processes. -THE ROOTS OF DISTRESS http://stores.lulu.com/voice4kids

Dr. Dan L. Edmunds, Ed.D. If... psychiatrists were motivated by a true desire to do no harm and to seek for person's mental health, then we would not be merely suppressing, but rather seeking to understand...we would be targeting those issues which often create mental anguish for persons to begin with. We would be addressing issues of social justice... Theory has become fact in psychiatry.
Dr. Dan L. Edmunds, Ed.D. We see the man on the street corner conversing with himself and dishelved. Most often turn away in fear. Why are we afraid? Because this man speaks of the human condition- of how a disordered society can break any of us.-PSYCHIATRIC POLITICS AND SOCIAL CONTROL (2007)
Dr. Dan L. Edmunds, Ed.D. Often rather than seeking to help and support one another, or looking to transform ourselves and our society, we await something from above to come and do everything for us, so we never take any real action, or we rattle of our laundry list of requests (or sometimes demands)... Hopefully, we can come to a realization of just what it means to be a human being and how precious our lives really are.
Dr. Dan L. Edmunds, Ed.D.
Society itself is sick, yet it seeks to pathologize those who would react to this sick society, and it offers them its technologies, it offers them its drugs, to numb them into accepting things as they are rather than to actively protest and change the injustices that exist. American society has become apathetic and nu...mb, and if such persists, our further decline is only inevitable. Let us hope that some will awaken from their stupor before it is too late. - ROOTS OF DISTRESS (2008)Read More
