Not all psychiatrist or medical doctors are harmful, and many are there to help people. However, there are still some psychiatrist and doctors, who still do… Continue reading Stop diagnosing those you don’t agree with.

June is CAH Awareness Month | What it means to me in 2020

Mx. Anunnaki Ray Marquez
