“Ms. Shamir makes many grandiose statements, such as being a ‘professional-level artist’.”

— Psychiatric report by Doctor E.Z., October 15, 2025

“Makes many grandiose statements, such as being ‘professional level artist’ is an actual quote from a psychiatric report produced yesterday by a shrink I showed the above and following drawings to:

I mean… that would be because I AM a professional-level artist.

I only just redesigned two national magazines (Châtelaine and Elle Québec).

As Executive Art Director at Châtelaine, I didn’t just “train as a graphic designer” — I was hiring and supervising graphic designers.

In that role, I was also hiring international photographers and illustrators, coordinating and directing cover shoots and editorials.

I have produced 150-hour hand-drawn graphite portraits with surgical precision.

And this… is what psychiatry calls “grandiosity.”

What are you talking about, Jan?
Are you sure you don’t need your own head checked?

If I mumbled about having no talent and agreed to take sedatives, I’d be considered “improving.”

Because in Canadian psychiatry, you’re only healthy when you’re silent, sedated, and self-effacing.

This is what psychiatric “care” looks like when competence itself is treated as a threat.

Someone please make it stop.
