Gee, I wonder if SSRIs are also massively over prescribed. Possibly. We are not going to drug our way out of a sick culture.
They really started the over-prescribing due to young boys having the energy that all young boys have. Schools started cutting out the mid-morning and mid-afternoon recess and expected six and seven year-olds, to sit quietly in their seats all day. Teachers found it easier to just ask that the children be drugged. Some without the parents’ knowledge.
I was a substitute teacher in the 90s and the prescription drug cabinet for students’ medication went from a small box to an entire closet. Students were going to the office non-stop to get their daily pill just before lunch time.
All school shooters seem to be on SSRIs
I think both are over prescribed.
Seems we think there’s nothing that a little pill can’t cure, except they don’t. Sometimes they exasperate the problem.
We need to be more prudent.
Im not 100% sure every one they say are “sick”, are sick. Seems to me , all of a sudden every kid on earth has ADHD.
How do we get out of a sinful culture?
