It wasn't considered a disease because they didn't know how to fix it. Now they do. They sell you drugs.

The fuckers want money.

We went back there and they had come and hacked off every inoculated arm. There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

I had a great argument with this girl who claimed to have ADD, I'll post it when I get dressed

EDIT: Nah, i don't feel like it.

Raine

ADD is a disorder
Depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain. It's causes are not limited to stress as it can sometimes be the symptom of a physical illness.

ADD is usally treated with medication.

Depression (depending on the cause, stage, and medical history of the patient) is often treatable with medication, therapy, and sometimes both.

The two are nothing alike. Not even remotely similar.
But I will admit that there are a lot of kids running around taking meds for ADD
and the number of people taking anti-depressants is staggering. But giving the causes, I'm not too surprised.

Trauma

I'm prescribed to anti-depressants as well, I don't take them though.
I thought the "hand out" of perscription drugs was just mainly a problem in the United States.
I don't believe that medications should be given away so quickly to teenagers for small problems such as low grades, bad sleep patterns, misbehavior, or apathy.
I was prescribed Remeron because I got drunk and got caught.
I had to see a therapist, then a doctor, and I understood every question.
If I had answered "yes" to the questions that applied to schizophrenics I'm sure he would've started my on an anti-psychotic or whatever.
The fact of the matter is, I don't think drugs should be thrown to teens like candies.
Before a drug is prescribed, a full evaluation of the patient's psyche, or at least more insight than the patient's personal responses, should be given.

See this is the kind of stuff i`m on about.
Thats not being f*cked up , thats just normal teenage behavior.

Sometimes I think this world is just breeding a whole generation of drugged up office workers.It seems like to me that these days going to collage or university is considered the be all & end all of everything and if you can`t handle the pressure we`ll dope you up so you can.

I didn`t go to either collage or university. I`ve never regretted it once.

I was chatting to someone on here who I shant name who told me that she was perscribed ritalin to help her get rid of stress and hyperactivity so she concentrate on her exams better.

I mean WTF is that all about? If you can`t handle a couple of exams without swallowing pills how the hell are you going to cope in a job where you are expected to deliver EVERYDAY for the rest of your life.
