    I would call the symptom "sleep disturbances". I'm all over the map when it comes to my sleep cycle. For example, I slept all day yesterday, but I'm awake today.

    Hoffer did reserch with Humphrey Davies, Linus Pauling & John Smithies. All four of them are high funcioning smart people. Linus Pauling was the most sought after commencement speaker for universities till he joined forces to those who would improve Medicine by using current biochemical, nutritional knowledge. When Psychiatry merged with the Pharmaceutical leaders they created a fake "peer review" (Task Force 7 not available at the APA TF listing!) This 58 page bogus item is the proof u refer to

    it's kind of psycholgy's own fault. they took a term that was used and means sadness, and decided to name the disease the same thing.

    when the facts about it showed it worked and felt differently they never updated the damn name.

    Minimal or subclinical brain impairment suggests a knowledge of etiology you see, so - that's unscientific and unprofessional! The Way for the members of the Profession to be truly correct and scientific Forever is by not saying anything. That way they are always correct: The Nauseating Nosology: DIAGNOSIS in Psychiatry. All categorizations of deviance from normalcy are objective descriptive names applied by the Authority Doctor. No Medicial Tests used; purely a procedure to describe and name.

    The Doctor in the 1930s had a list of possible harms to the brain that could happen. Neuropsychopharmacologist A.P.A. Psychiatric Leader Donald Klein, M.D. was instrumental in forging the fraud of Psychiatry. He wrote learned books from academe on high for diagnostic and treatment protocols for Professionals. Diagnoses psychological/treatments patented neurodrugging chemicals. Klein authoritarian declared in a book that all fellow Professionals using the term minimal brain dysfunction must stop

    ADD" Dr. Lendon Smith writes on how the use of norepinephrine drug agents - used currently in the "cutting edge" "scientific" "Medicine", NIMH/APA PSYCHiatry (syn, Neuropsychopharmacology; see TA Ban ACNP) was accidentally discovered, in... in... The 1930s ! A young woman accidentally was given benzedrine rather than a dose of bromide sedative. This worked well. SO now the Pharmacaust increasing huge SALES of Amphetamine as The Treatment. Real (behavioral) Disease ADHD calls for Real Medicines !
