The Drugging of Our Children (Trailer)

it helps, need it ? 'drugs & money'

im 15 and have adhd and without my medicine im hyper and i cant sit in a chair for a minute wihtout tapping something or moving and i cant even hold a normal conversation with someone without being annoying and switching subject and stuff. so many children have adhd and actually need this medicine, but some kids find a way to abuse it

saysaynaynay, I'm not saying I don't believe your personal testimony. But how can you speak for anyone else? There are plenty of children who actually don't need medication. ADHD meds are over-prescribed. I was on ritalin, then dexadrine, then i stopped. I love to drum on things, and I am annoying to many people. But when I am interested in something, i am very focused, and I respect myself the way I am naturally. I think traditional education is just the wrong fit for some kids.

do u abuse it?????

I will take a wild guess that it's the food you are eating. There are chemicals in processed foods that affect the brain. The best thing you can do is remove all boxed, packaged foods from your diet and subsitute it with real food that comes from nature. Fruit is a good start because it tastes the best. You can make banana ice cream just by Blending up frozen bananas with a little water in a blender.

You don't need drugs, hon, you need to get up and go outside and get active like young people are supposed to do. Go out and run, swim, ride a bike, etc. When I was your age we didn't sit around and stare at a computer all day or watch TV. We went outside and had vigorous activity!

THAT'S the true ADHD. Children are hyperactive because they're being overly-stimulated by video games, television, computers and etc. and are being physically active enough. These mind-altering drugs destroy the imagination, subdue the child's inner-life, and it doesn't even help with anything. It doesn't improve your grades, and why after all these years has there been no evidence of a chemical imbalance, yet they still claim it is? It's a FRAUD!

saysayandnaynay, you probably just need to get up out of your chair and go outside to play basketball or ride a bike or swim or some other physical activity. You do NOT need drugs, which are just maskiing a tendency.
