[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No I am saying we live in a pharma nutty culture where the pharma companies main goal is to make addicted kids for life and when these kids are hyped on on drugs they are bouncing off the walls and dealing their pills throughout the schools.

Everyone wants a diagnosis to explain that kids are kids and that usually they test everyone, have rebellious phases, and experiment drugs and alcohol.  If we proactively call human behavior ND in order to give them crazy pills then it indicates the countries love affair with dangerous drugs, quick fixes, and unfair playing fields.  Further it shows parents and school systems will be swift and inconsiderate if the consequences of head meds for kids that make patients for life.[/quote]

This makes clear that you are entirely unfamiliar with the scientific literature on this subject.  ADHD meds for pediatric patients probably have the most robust evidence basis of any intervention in all of psychiatry.  Conversely, ASD is not routinely treated with meds at all. [/quote]
