Diet is a good point.
They had me on ADHD Pills even when I was running through the swampy forests of GA on a daily basis as a kid.
I believe it is something most people can grow out of, but the mental belief of they cannot operate without the pills is too damn strong for them to even try.
I stopped when I was 17 because I knew it was doing something to my body, potentially permanent damage, and refused since then. Been doing fine.
I’m not that old, mid-60s, went to elementary school in the late 60s and graduated high school in 1978.
Growing up I never knew anyone that was autistic, suffered from ADHD, had a peanut allergy, and other things that are common now.
I was lucky I grew up in a farming environment, we grew most of our own vegetables and meat including beef, pork, chicken, eggs, occasionally we had venison and other game meat.
I ask what has changed since then and now, I can only think of processed food, incredible number of vaccines, lack of physical exercise and the reliance on drugs to heal every ailment people have.
Some combination of those things has turned millions into drug addicts that are chronically sick their entire lives.
