The story of Matthew Smith, a 14 year old who died from the use of Ritalin prescribed for his ADHD. His father has testified before Congress on this issue and is an advocate for the use of all natural means to treat this problem, instead of drugs like those that killed his son.

  • the school is pushing me to put my 8yrs old son on meds ..after reading this they going to have to kill me b4 that happens .......NO TO RITALIN IT KILLS OUR BABIES

  • ADHD? another "invented" disease from the Psych!

    ADHD? Test my blood and find the ADHD disease in it... you can't? then you are SCAMMERS

    Hands down from childrens!!!

  • My 22 yr old son died from his addiction to Ritalin after 10 yrs of successful use. Sean was a beautiful child , a joy a gift. Now I learn that Ritalin damages the brain and the FDA has approved this drug. Sean had a 3.7 GPA but told me he hated his life. Don't believe a psychiatrist or MD doctor . They want you out of their office in 20 minutes. I wish I could I go scream in their face, "You killed my beautiful son".  We trust you because your are intelligent. Not so. This is careless evil.

  • YES TO RITALIN

  • I wish i didn't have to take focalin, which is a form of ritalin, but my parents don't think it will kill me.

  • I have epilepsy myself...... (not a scientologist in case anyone is wondering)

    however when i was taken off this medication i almost died from the side effects. I was extremely dizzy for 3 days straight and couldnt eat anything.

    ALL THIS WAS TO TREAT ABSENCES (times when you go blank).

    I will never take any type of medication for my epilepsy now. Only medicine that will save my life.

  • no to ritalin!
