Summary
A document written in 1952. Declassified in 1983. Quietly re-cataloged in 2025 — without a single headline. Dr. Roger McFillin follows that document to where he believes it leads. The destination is not Cold War history. It's your medicine cabinet. Before there were SSRIs, there were research programs. Before the DSM, there were experiments. Dr. McFillin connects dots the mainstream has never connected — using only public records, peer-reviewed data, and 20 years of sitting across from people the system was supposed to help. The trail is longer than you think. And it ends somewhere you won't expect.
