It's garbage Jim. The doctors are under more and more pressure to get the people on some kind of drugs. It's ridiculous!
And what really pisses me off is that most drugs have side effects but some anti-depressents have a side effect of suicide! What kind of bullshit is that? Isn't an anti-depressent supposed to prevent suicidal thoughts?!

Or perhaps the Doctors need to label people then invent the drugs to either fix or kill them ... like nicotine [Only registered can see links. ]
which seems to indicate it could be an anti depressant ... jobs for the boys I guess

The whole ADD/ADHD thing is nothing but a bunch of crap. It's just an excuse for kids in America to get dumber by the day. "I can't focus on my school work because I have ADD and that causes me to lose concentration." What a bunch of crap, even when I was in middle school that was enough to get your ass beat by your parents.
Now if a parent as much as raises his/her hand at the kid, they are labeled a bad parent and get punished for it even though the kid needs a good ass whoopin.

I totally agree ... I went to a public (Private) school [Only registered can see links. ]
the punishments there did me no harm at all and of course there were no parents involved .... just the Prefects & the Masters .... which in turn ment if you played up you were 'delt' with !
