Fred Baughman, MD author THE ADHD FRAUD www.Trafford.com 2/20/09:
Now they sneak the drugs of addiction into bubble gum of toddlers,
preschoolers and children everywhere. With no proof that ADHD or any
psychiatric diagnosis is a physical/biological/neurological abnormality (to be
made normal by real treatment), and no prospect that there will ever be such
proof, all who knowingly participate in/aid and abet, this addicting and
poisoning of entirely normal persons--all of US psychiatry, all of US medicine
(with non-psychiatrists prescribing 70% of these poisons, and giving aid,
comfort and the appearance of scientific legitimacy to psychiatry) the Congress,
White House, FDA, the judiciary, educators everywhere, and now the Michigan
Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee, can only be described as sc _ _! (you fill
in the blanks)
On 3/23/06 I testified at the FDA: " There is nothing more despicable than
a physician who knowingly tells normal patients that they are "sick,"
"ill," or "diseased," for profit. Yet this has become
standard practice throughout medicine, and at the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), American Psychiatric Association (APA), American Medical Association
(AMA), American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP), American
Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), American Academy of Neurology (AAN), Child
Neurology Society (CNS), American Academy of Family Practice (AAFP), and
countless other organizations."
