Misleading condition

The latest pseudoscience concerning the manufactured psychiatric label ADhD (Attention Deficit hyperactivity Disorder) suggests children who ‘grow out’ of the so-called condition have higher IQs.

There is a fundamental problem with this ‘ research’: there is no scientific evidence to support the existence of ADhD, which is a set of behavioural and emotional characteristics that have been redefined as a mental disorder.

Furthermore, and moving even further away from science, ADhD was

voted into existence in 1987. That’s consensus, not science.

The neurologist, Richard Saul, spoke on the issue concerning the legitimacy of the condition. he put it this way: ‘After 50 years of practising medicine and seeing thousands of patients demonstrating symptoms of ADhD, I have reached the conclusion there is no such thing as ADhD.’

Despite the psychiatric dishonesty, the label continues to be used on children and adolescents who display argumentative or disruptive behaviour.

however, the most alarming aspect of t he entire charade is t hat psychiatrists continue to prescribe dangerous, mind-altering drugs.

Yes, there are symptoms, yes, there i s disruptive or argumentative behaviour, but real doctors will look to find out what’s causing particular issues rather than suppressing them.

Real doctors will carry out physical tests to search for the cause of the problem. Psychiatrists, however, have no physical or biological tests that will support the existence of ADhD.

Ultimately, when you realise that ADhD behaviour i s reflective of normal childhood behaviour, you will also realise that children don’t ‘grow out’ of ADhD. They simply grow up. BRIAN DANIELS, Citizens Commission on Human Rights (united Kingdom), East
