“In short, the whole business of creating psychiatric categories of ‘disease,’ formalizing them with consensus, and subsequently ascribing diagnostic codes to them, which in turn leads to their use for insurance billing, is nothing but an extended racket furnishing psychiatry a pseudo-scientific aura. The perpetrators are, of course, feeding at the public trough.” (Dr. Thomas Dorman, a member of the Royal College of Physicians of the United Kingdom and Canada)
I just got done with Pseudoscience: Psychiatry’s False Diagnoses. It is a 30-page report, meaning that anyone diagnosed with “ADD” (Attention Deficit Disorder”) or “ADHD” (add “Hyperactive”) will not have the necessary attention span to get through. That’s too bad, since these folks have been diagnosed (and likely drugged) for something that does not even exist.
Statistics show that 6.4 million of our kids have this “disorder,” and the psychiatrists do not stop there – they say if the kids have it, the parents probably do too.
