About The Medicated Child, Bipolar, ADHD, Psychiatry

Dr. John Breeding has a Ph.D. is psychology. He comments about the recent PBS Frontline Documentary, The Medicated Child. 6 million U.S. Children are taking psychiatric drugs for ADHD, Bipolar and other mental disorders. Good psychiatry, experimentation or kid drugging for profit? Do these medications promote good mental health or do they create a population of people on disability?

As the video "freedom from conscience -- bullying" points out, the education system in the USA is primarily concerned with conformity. That is why if a kid sticks out he gets abused by his/her classmates since the authoritarian nature of the system actually creates a social setting that demands everyone look and act the same.

@89DrAcoNiAn89 Children, babies, and adults who lack emotional support and stimulation and/or are deprived emotionally and/or are emotionally attacked-these people will have 'weaker'(weakened)states of being that will result in consequence of who they are and what they will become. Can meds help? Yes they can. Can counseling help? Yes it can. But in our current society, are they helping to solve the CAUSE of the problems? No they are not......

@FLOTSAMCRAFTSWAMI yo dude. no one made you medicate your child. They just said you should. Teachers just want the quick fix so they dont have to work as hard. Who do they care if there's a strung out kid in their classroom now. as long as they're quiet.

Your kid needs to find out himself the bad effects of being hyper. Teach him the golden rule and such. It's better to conversate the reasons for rules and such in a fair way. I used to be one of those kids. Medication didnt work for me.

I have limited resources....

Dr. Breeding...My son entered first grade and the school has pressured my to medicate him, nine weeks into it, my son who was once energetic, witty, funny and friendly,and now he is experiencing social rejection,being meek where he was brave and knew to defend himself, creative, imaginative and I am witnessing him disappearing before my eyes, cant fint support for counseling without medication, they discourage me from any alternative...where can I find help, in San Antonio Tx, contd.

@TimmyCrackCorn How is he now, three years later? What did his adhd morph into of late, you lazy ass, not fit and should never have had children.

When I needed to "settle down", my parents would send me outside with a ball to go burn off excess energy.

Hope nobody thinks I am a nuts..I know how ridiculous fish oil sounds (I had doubts myself) but it actually helped much to my surprise.

[MsTubeWhore]

Even his therapist noticed improvement and I never told him I was putting him on fish oil so I didn't put it into his head. I told him after he mentioned the improvement to me. So..if you're a parent dealing with ADHD look into it, it can't hurt. Google the study so you can read for yourself. Granted some kids have it much worse and need medication, I just wanted to share my experience. Hope this helps for those that are looking for alternatives. :)
