        Very saddened to only learn today, a full year following the event, of the April 19, 2025, passing my dear pal John Duran, a rock climbing extraordinaire and generally exquisite athlete in all senses, in addition to his Phd. in education, and the 17 years he spent living in China. John was a dedicated Buddhist, and took his varied strengths to China, teaching in the Montessori education system, and teaching Chinese children, and adults, how to rock climb. 

     Jahn and I spent much time together circa the 1980s and 1990s, alpine skiing, mt. biking, rock climbing, and sharing many a meal. And he eared a Phd. in Education, and as with many mentally ill Americans, yet one more American of far higher intelligence than the average American psychiatirst at time of this writing. And like myself, John was an enrolled member of the Dine' Nation, as well as the Ute Mountain Apache Nation. I am an enrolled member in the Great Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma, and this connected John to myself. Just as with many bike racers, which I was dedicated to in mt 20s, most of such bike racers are white, just as most rock climbers, skiers, and on list goes, are white.

      John came and stayed with me in Rico, CO, in summer, 1999, which is where I worked on my MA in American Indian Studies. And he told me about how his Apache father took him on many hikes in the those mountains, telling his\m traditional stories and sharing tribal lore that only Indian people ever learn about. In my case, no, I have never lived on the Chickasaw Nation. But prior to my father's death in 1970, I did have the privilege of spending time on our reservation, vistiting with my cousins, and the like.   

      I lost touch with John once I rejected Facebook in 2024. I did send him the occasional message via other such sites, when he was still living in China. A far better man than the average American psychiatrist, far wiser, far more athletically talented, and on that list goes. They are growing lazier over time, not willing to sit with their patients and providing cognitive behavioral therapy. They like the easiest approaches, throwing more and more pills, and still using electro-convulsive shock, without the permission of their own patients. Lazier as time passes, and no less dangerous today that at any time in the past. I know as much, the fact that bad acting American psychiatrists are working in many sites well away from the accursed state managed mental hospital system. 

      These many bad acting American psychiatrists make my sick to my stomach in comparison to John Duran. He proved himself to me as one of most moral and ethical American citizen I have ever met. And yes, any doctor willing to lie, to abuse, and mistral their own patients prove themselves as very unethical, immoral, and outright criminally minded.  

      This speaks to all those who work for Providence-St. Patrick's Hospital mental health care programs. They proved to me that my life meant nothing to them, and and as such, I have lost all faith in people such as Robert Munjal, Ira Gaddy, Jason Molinaro, and on the list goes. The lest ethical modern medical doctors. I no longer see any of them as valid doctors, and it is via knowing people like John Durn that I have leaned what ethical Americans are. 

     It's beyond the pale, the fact that even in this day and age, the vast majority of today's America psychiatirsts cannot be trusted ot care for persons who, like myself, are affected by serous mentally illness. Sin being sin, crime being crime, and those who cause otherwise preventable harms. They are all far less ethical that the vast moajotiry of America's mentally ill citizens. They assume that on basis of caring for the mentally ill, that they are inherently compassion. No, they lack empathy, and only car about themselves. 

     I know just has fucked up in the heads many of them are. I know more about the history of the American psychiatrists far better then they do. They have never proven they care about mentally ill American citizens, for just as long as the profession has existed. And yes, the American Psychiatric Association remains the least trustworthy governing entity in the history of modern medicine. And on basis of being from sage, they feel they will always get away with the shit they pull specific to mentally ill kids and adults. 

    To hell with these all too many bad American psychiatrists. They do, as one, suck. 

     Thanks John. You taught me well.
