Clinical Depression In Teenagers. ADHD...the perpetual fraud ?

Q.These children are suffering from different forms of childhood depression. The chemical distribution of amines in the brain are making this child super-sensitive to his problem of slow or inadequate input retention. This makes him squirm in discomfort at the work necessary to do and the input of the daily academic grind. They cause trouble out of irritability to input. THIS IS TRULY CHILDHOOD DEPRESSION. It is best attacked by anti-depressants picked specially for you child's symptomology.

A.If you doubt what I say, ask your child if they feel a part of the school gang, and comfortably so. Or do they feel "different". Seek out doctors expressing doubts about Ritalin as a satisfactory long-term therapy. ADHD is a made up expression for depression in teenagers and younger that first appeared in 1980. If you as a parent are taken in by false claims on the behalf of Ritalin, and take the calmative effects of Ritalin as all that you wish to see in your child, then you are doing he or she a great dis-service, as to his later life as a drug dependent individual. Yeah I am sure it has nothing to do with poverty, environment or peer pressure... no all drug addicts were Ritalin kids. So that is like saying Marilyn Mason is the cause for Satanism, and Elvis caused young girls to have pre-marital sex and get pregnant right? So you have made ritalin a scapegoat. Lets blame, drugs, lets blame tv, lets blame everything but the real cause of drug addiction. Wow that must be some kind of feat talking to 60,000 people.... not to mention the fact that most kids/teenagers have been on one type of medication or another.. not to mention the rate of drug use in teenagers.. be it speed, acid, pot... nope you had to try to pin it on ritalin. And you have the athority to say this because of what? So I guess adult ADD is just a hoax right, so all those people who have ADD and are NOT on drugs are what? And AIDS is just a homosexual disease right? Please, my fiance does not take ritalin.. never has.. he is not on any medication.. but there is NO DOUBT that he has ADD. But right, most of the population of physcologist, therapists, physicians, and even neurosurgeons are wrong. Yeah they didn't go through thousands of dollars worth of education, numerous years of schooling, coppled with years of clinical experience just to try and fool the whole country right? Cause they want to waste their time and money on this big cover-up.. this big fraud. Every child feels different and every child is different... so if this is childhood depression, I guess adult add are growns up who never grew up and are depressed. Like my fiance.. he has 2 kids, we are trying for another... he has a wonderful job and he is EXTREMELY happy. No depression in sight..but yet he is just a depressed teenager right? He just feels different then his peers right? Why don't you take your borderline, neurotic attitude and share it with people who care. I am sure there is a newsgroup for conspiracy theorists.. because that is all you seem to be. Playing make-believe with other people so you get attention... so you can feel like you have actually done something worthwhile in your life. So lets believe that the earth is flat, we never landed on the moon, kennedy got shot by the cia, disabilites are bad, crackers and cookies at tea time are good, and oh yeah ADD is all just this big conspiracy to turn everyone into drug users.. yeah when pigs fly.
