ADHD-from bad parenting? How about all the environmental toxins? In vaccines, the air, our food?
It's very profitable for drug companies to keep pushing drugs on everyone-doctors do it to. Sadly, for most meds, especially the mind altering ones, don't get the problem. More drug lobbyists in DC than congresspeople.
The main problem with the kids and ADHD is that parents these days don't want to face bad behavior and discipline. They'd much rather put their kid on a pill so they can say it's a medical issue. Nobody wants to be responsible for their behavior.
When did proper punctuation and using capital letters become obsolete?
With so many doctors (many fields) pushing drugs on so many people how can many be classified as normal or abnormal? We seem to have become a medicated society which is absurd.
Don't jump to conclusions.This article says very little about the DSM, mostly only sensationalism. There is great good the DSM has brought upon society, for one thing standardization of diagnoses and treatment.
This is not a laughing matter. Can everyone broke and living off disability and food stamps be the new near future reality? Is that what our kids have to look forward to because no person can be normal?
scientists and pushing the limits of the unknown will eventually lead to the mass hysteria and breakdown of the world due to fear of what is now known to be true by a scientificly calculated guess, good job ruining the normal persons peace of mind
so because i have a bad temper i now have a mental disorder which in a lot of cases will cause more histeria and anxiety in human beings because they are now being classified with a mental illness which worries them,
