The WTF Of The Day

More Kids Taking Antipsychotics for ADHD: Study

Antipsychotics for ADHD? Oh brother.

Why all of a sudden are there so many things antipsychotics are being prescribed for? It's kind of scary. Those drugs are scary. I can only imagine what they did to my brain when I was on them. Certainly a developing mind should not be taking them.

This quote:
Dr. Peter Breggin, a psychiatrist from Ithaca, N.Y., and an outspoken critic of widespread antipsychotic use in children, said these drugs damage developing brains.
"We have a national catastrophe," said Breggin. "This is a situation where we have ruined the brains of millions of children."
Ah, so there are still some psychiatrists with half a brain.
