He didn't consult my therapist or do a full medical examination. He asked my mother and I ten questions about my personality and gave me an anti-depressant. It's as if parents do not fully understand their children they think problems can be solved through a drug. Not true. When you said because I can function without taking meds means I don't need them I say: **** yeah. And I'm sure a lot of people don't need them (the girl for exams). I took aderol for exams last year just to cram studying. I didn't need it, so maybe it's not that PERSRIPTION drugs are looked at as problem starters, but problem solvers for the most part. People think medication is very advanced and that it can solve almost anything maybe. I'm not sure how to look at the unthoughtful flaws of society, the greediness of pharmaceutical companies, or the obligation given to doctors to correct problems faced by patients who don't need drugs. $hit's weak.

Well there are some things wrong with this scenario.
1) Doctors are not supposed to talk about another patients info or give another patients info to other doctors unless they have the consent of the patient or in this case the concent of the guardian/parent of the patient
2) is sucks that your parents dont seem to know you that well and would let something like this happen. But alas, you did not come with directions at birth and your parents didn't come with instructions
3) getting started on medication at an early age for problems you don't have could have negative effects on you later in life. The fact that you were prescribed a medication you didn't want or need almost makes me sick.
4) it's scary but experiencing negative/traumatic events such as that of taking medication you don't want has actually helped save lives or keptone less person of the street. Scary but true.
So now my question to you is, since the last time you were caught drinking, have you done it again, and if so were you caught?

Yes, no.
And here's my question to you: Did you read the last post I made stating my argument had nothing to do with the alcohol consumption, but more the fact of drug prescription? Even if the medicine is supposed to show a good moral in the end, it wasn't my point.

I understand the point you tried to make and did get across.
The point I was trying to make is that even though you didn’t think you need the medication, functioned fine in the world without it, there is a chance it could’ve improved the way you already are.
But since the desired effect of the medication wasn’t reached given your answer to the question in my previous post then you are supporting the very reason why I think prescription medications should not always be the first, last, and sometimes only resort in treating a child’s behavior or bad habits.
1) it’s no guarantee that it will help the child (In you case there was no effect at all on your behavior)
2) even if it does work it could lead to problems in the future, that could hinder certain good abilities or behaviors they already possessed.

No. There's nothing wrong with what snickers did. More than half of my school does that. There's no need to put a kid on drugs for something like that.

It definitely depends on the situation and the scenario.

But i would never prescribe a kid caught using alcohol medication.
but if it was a serious problem then I'd definitely recommend therapy and maybe group counseling because alcoholism is a serious disease even if some people don't think of it as one.

Although in this particular instance adn this particular situation, I think it could've been avoided if the American society wasn't so adamant on keeping kids in the dark about certain things.
The more you tell someone they can't do something the greater the chances are that they will do it.

It was a pretty bad situation so I understand the therapy, but not the medication.
I think you understand so...
Have fun with this Rolling Stones cover I put up!
