1999- 2007: OCD: ADHD: Childhood Bipolar Disorder: The Evolution of a Diagnosis :Senseless Drugging Of a Childhood: ADHD : Judith Warner: Welcome!

"Perhaps Warner should begin asking her very important researcher sources about that instead of offering us her continual defense of a broken paradigm."- Dawdy

Is ADHD A Fraud?-Furious Seasons.



~~~

[Judith:][my opinion, based on being a teacher in the classroom, and a mother of a child who now, as she sits inside a adult residential care facility, is a PRODUCT of this thought, and it's a stance that will kill or harm, or damage brains of healthy children, all in the name of a pharmaceutical industry, allowed to run rampant in this American society. There is NO safety in the thought of who minds the store any longer.]

Judith, I invite you to my Thanksgiving dinner, at the retirement home where my 19 year old now resides. Each psychiatrist that saw her and trialed their own ideals should also sit at that table with us.

I spent the day today working in a Junior High School. The same one where my daughter suffered on Zoloft,Zyprexa,[1999] --the list goes on and on. I saw the teachers shed tears when they heard "my news".

The over-medicated psychiatric paradigm has got to stop.


Medicating childhood? like what? wiggling in your chair? speaking out of turn? too shy to raise your hand? wetting your pants? psychiatric medications do one thing: they stunt a child, in growth, brain formation and spirit.


Antipsychotics such as Risperdal, Abilify, Zyprexa are chemicals that affect growing brains and bodies, and what we will end up with in the next decade are boatloads of residential care facilities like the one my daughter resides, as a result of psychiatric medication damage.

Dare to challenge me in thought, because I win.

The worst war.

For each 100 students, let's say there is 1 who may need medication. The paradigm the way pharma industry would have it for their bottom line is 100% of students need medication.


For no apparent[or proven] reason.

The same people who sell, pimp and promote the products probably wet their pants, peed on the playground, and were called bookworms, or quirky as kids.

TODAY, I taught children who were born with disabilities.

Today, I took my daughter on a drive, unable to speak, and wrote me a note that she wanted ice cream; as a result of brain damage from psych meds. In 2005, she was a Junior in High School and in Honor Society.I refuse to accept "this is the way it was going to be" bullshit from professionals any longer.

There is no way to describe how my daughter suffered at the hands of book-jackets, and self-proclaimed thought leaders like [yourself], and-- let's just pick a name from the hat--Joseph Biederman, and the Harvard pals.

WHO is a day late and a dollar short?[Judith?]Oh wait, you are not a dollar short.

"I share all these feelings. I think that most of us do. But where I differ (now) from those eager to pile onto the anti-ADHD bandwagon is that I’m not willing — anymore — to sacrifice real children and their parents on the altar of ideology." November 2007--Judith Warner

Nice try Judith.

"I do not dictate or prescribe any "appropriate" treatment for any other parents children.

Thanks for the compliment. I must be stirring a pot that counts.

Ritalin Wars: One person's opinion, Judith Warner-- November 2007.


"I’m not willing — anymore — to sacrifice real children and their parents on the altar of ideology."- Judith Warner. NY Times Blog


"Why did my stomach drop so quickly to my knees, why was I so quick to think it possible that, after countless interviews and lectures and hours of reading, I’d simply fallen for a hoax manufactured by the drug companies and wrested upon the innocent?"- Judith Warner NY Times Blog

So, Judith finally fell into the trenches, hand carved and kept by parents like me, who were duped,--for 365/24/7 for 8 years.

Welcome to your ideal world.


Where pharamceutical companies do not take you to the alter to sacrifice your/a child.

Or YOU.
