Say “NO” to drugs (but take your Ritalin)
In this article published on American Daily the author discusses many of the points I often cover about psychiatric drugging in our educational system. He goes on to quote a blog post from Thomas Brewton who has an article by Pastor Harold W. Bolinger with personal hands on experience with the educational system pushing drugs on his son and causing great harm in the process.
I find it incredibly ironic that our modern educational system is very busy telling our children to “say no to drugs… but take your Ritalin.”
Dr. Fred Baughman, a neurologist and psychiatric specialist, has charged the industry of deliberately “creating a disorder” in order to push drugs to children. He says there is no evidence of a chemical imbalance with an “ADHD” child, and that most of the things used to label a child with “ADHD” are normal childhood behavior.
Bruce Wiseman, of the Citizen’s Commission on Human Rights, indicates that the psychiatric drugs often given to children have side effects, including mania, paranoia, psychosis, suicidal tendencies and violence. Sources claim that up to 4% of patients on these drugs are likely to have some type of psychotic episode, and over 2 million people on them, that shows over 80,000 psychiatric patients on the verge of a drug induced maniacal attack.
Official documents also reveal that a patient on Paxil is 8X more likely to attempt or to commit suicide than before they started taking it. Does this sound like a drug you would want to put your troubled child on?
