Following the link from Furious Seasons, I read this from The Guardian--
"David Healy, professor of psychological medicine at Cardiff University, says the drugs may cause heart, circulation and breathing problems. "There is a real question over whether the drugs can kill for a number of reasons. One is that all anti-psychotics act on [the brain chemical] dopamine." He said dopamine was known to have a role in cardiovascular regulation. A number of children in the US, given stimulants - which also act on the dopamine system - after being diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), have suddenly died, said Healy. He was asked by lawyers in the US to give an opinion on a child who was diagnosed when she was a baby first with ADHD, then depression and finally bipolar disorder (manic depression). "Having spent 75% of her life on one of these drugs, she dropped dead at the age of two," he said."
In what universe is an infant diagnosed with ADHD, depression, bi-polar disorder? An INFANT??!! What in heavens name are we coming to? Who on earth even believes these diagnoses when they make them? What are they telling themselves about children, about development? Why is there now more outcry?
