Question: Why do Americans buy in the the pharmaceutical scam!?
People used to make it thru just fine w/o doping themselves and their children up!. ADD in kids!? I've never seen an un-hyper, perfectly focused 9 year old!. Restless Leg Syndrome!? Anxiety, poor diet, and sedentary lifestyle cause that, which are all rampant in western society!. Depression!? Look around!. Everyone should be severely depressed, but again sedentary living, poor diet, etc contribute to it!. Speed to lose weight, erections, hair growth, nail fungus, energy, sleep aids, Not to mention half the pills you can order via telivision will have a class action suit in the near future for causing death or serious illness!.
Why do people see something on TV and think that's the answer to all their problems w/o even researching it!?
I'm not saying some people aren't really suffering but when you think about the millions of people buying into this advertisement propaganda, how many pills will we be on in 20,30,40 years!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

we have become a society that is becoming increasingly lazy and more reliant on a quick fix for the problems we have or may be convinced we have by the drug makers constant bombardment of ads!. we are becoming hypochondriacs listening to ads plus it's easier to take a pill than change our lifestyles!. but i think the ads are the biggest contributer to this!. i opened a Readers Digest recently and it seemed that a 3rd of the mag was drug ads!. that's crazy!. that's not to say some don't need help!. personally, Prozac changed my life!. i don't take it anymore, but because of my time on it, i learned how to be a different person!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I think this is a great question for society to ponder!.
Also, I noticed you didn't mention all the drugs that have been recalled, and millions in lawsuits that already have or are happening!. The FDA uses the American public as guinea pigs for their new concoctions!.
I am very concerned as to where this will lead the future of our country!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

because people are idiots!. 99% believe what they hear and cannot think for themselves!. they also do not want to be inconvenienced!. so, they have a minor issue, want an IMMEDIATE solution, hear about a "great new medication" on the TV, go to the doctor, and get it "fixed"!.

Um I have ADHD and it's real and I do need my meds, I wasn't diagnosed in high school and I graduated with about a 2!.5 GPA, I was diagnosed in my early twenites and prescribed stimuant meds!.
Without meds it is impossible for me to study for a period longer than 30 minutes--With meds I have been able to abtain my Ph!.D!. although it took me 6 years and many people who began with me finished in 4!.
Right about the time I was diagnosed my girlfriend (who is now my wife), literaly had a suitcase packed and was ready to leave me because of my organilational, hyperactivity and impulsivity problems!. We have just celebrated our fith anniversary!.
I do agree with parts of your premise--I think there is little difference between a 6th grader in a worked-up mood and a kid with ADHD!. But the difference is that while its normal for any 6th grader to have a hard time sitting still in a few classes (maybe on average 2 out of their daily 6 or 10 times a week) there are students for whom they will have difficulty with either discipline or class work in 5-6 classes a day or maybe 30 or more times a week--that is something real!.
It's possible that in some cases ADHD is overdiagnosed, a pediatrician or family doctor should not be diagnosing psychiatric conditions-but when I was diagnosed it was done by a psychiatrist I went through multiple hours of testing and my parents and girlfriend were given surveys to fill out!.
Another problem with your theory in regards to ADHD is that stimulant drugs such as methylphenidate are some of the cheapest to produce, so if I was Evil Big Pharma and I wanted to invent a condition and a drug to treat it, wouldn't it make sense to make the cure something that was actually expensive!?
Also, is it your contention that most people who go to Medical school and decide that they want to pursue a career in psychiatry are evil!? You don't think that most people that do that are motivated by a desire to help people!? Have yo stopped to think what a massive degree of collusion your theory posits or about how many thousands of medical researchers and practicioners there would have to be all in league with a conspiracy like that!?--Sounds like something out of a comic book!.
I don't deny that that pharamceutical company's do seek to exploit the "me too" factor in their marketing and that not everything that there is a drug for is necessarily a new condition!. But when you, who obviously has little experience with people that suffer them start declaring conditions that you don't know anything about, to be fictional, you just sound like a crack-pot scientologist and even less reputable than the drug companies!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
