AbleChild Rings in the New Year by Giving a Voice to those Clearly Forsaken by State Mental Health Vendors.
Lisa Payne of Green Bay , Wisconsin found little to be joyful about during the Christmas and Holiday season. Her daughter is still locked away in an Illinois State psychiatric "treatment" center, having been placed on a variety of mind-altering drugs by State appointed legal guardians.
Previously featured on Montel Williams, Lisa Payne was a survivor of domestic violence. A victim at the hands of her abusive husband, she was left for dead and her mother was murdered. Her daughter saved her life, called 911, and stayed by her side as help arrived. "I know my daughter needs my help now, I just don't know how I can ensure that she gets it," she said.
When Lisa awoke from a coma induced by the beatings, she discovered the Department of Children and Family Services had taken custody of her daughter. An agency originally designed to help children "at risk" or in traumatic situations; they had resorted to simply placing her daughter on psychiatric drugs and refused any input whatsoever from her as the biological mother. Making matters even worse, Lisa has now been court ordered to take antidepressants, undergo urine tests to ensure that she is complying with their drug regiment, and mandated to counseling. The Supreme Court ruling on the right to "treatment" never intended to result in the forced drug "treatment" of individuals.
Lisa Payne is up against a legal system that has been unchallenged regarding forced drugging of children in State care. Her chances of ensuring the safety for her child, looks grim. Her daughter is in another State and she cannot afford to travel to visit her. The court in Illinois has also refused to allow her daughter to transfer to a different psychiatric center closer to home. Her next court date is not scheduled until May of 2006.
She thinks about her possible visit sometime in January to bring her daughter gifts for the Holiday. "Maybe a pair of jeans" she tells Ablechild . "She doesn't fit in her jeans anymore; her clothing size has been reduced from a size 9 to a size 3 due to the drugs effects. I am watching from an unbelievable distance as my daughter suffers in pain, and I have no say in her "treatment". Now she is hearing voices. They tell me that it is from all her "trauma", I know it's from the drugs," she adds.
