I believe that a lot of these conditions/diseases/disorders are BS created by a) the medical industry to create/secure jobs, and b) by the pharmaceutical industry to make billions from the drugs they make to “treat” the "problems". Most of the time people with “behavioural disorders” are just little shits who have been allowed to grow up wild, with very little discipline/guidance from their parent(s). The easiest solution for the parents is to agree to have them doped up to the eyeballs with the latest wonder drug, because actually being a good parent and raising your children properly is just too much hard work. nag:


ps: If you're in the US you might want to read [url=http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=41606:c1541]this[/url:c1541]. If you're a pregnant woman, or if you're under the age of 18, you're going to have to have mandatory mental health screening. Enjoy your drugs. oOo:

Except I don't have ANY "behavioural disorders" and I'm not "wild".

There's a difference between ADD and ADHD,

As I said to judas yesterday there's ADHD which is the "Sit your ass down, Shut the fuck up, and take your goddamn pills" and then there's ADD which is the quiet kid in the corner who can't focus even if he tries.

If you cared to even glance at what I wrote besides the topic you'd see that I've lived with ADD for 8 years WITHOUT medications and we're using this as a last resort.

I wasn't aiming that rant directly at you. I apologise if it came across that way.

But to say that ADD is a hoax created by the pharm companies would still include me as a member of a "hoax", which I can tell you ADD is a very serious thing that people without it just shrug off as a problem the kid has he can correct if he wants to. It's like someone saying that retarted people should be able to correct themsevles because they know they're retarted.
