Ritalin, often misspelled Ridalin, is a trade name for the prescription drug methylphenidate, which is a central nervous system stimulant. It is used as an aide to the mental health of children in particular.
According to the National Drug Intelligence Center, “Ritalin is abused for the stimulant effects it produces, including appetite suppression, wakefulness, euphoria, and increased focus and attentiveness.”
What are some of the potential side effects of Ritalin use? In his article “Ritalin stunts growth of children; long-term risk to children’s health unknown” Mike Adams, editor of NaturalNews.com discovered that according to the August, 2007 issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Ritalin stunts the growth of children. “After three years on the psychotropic drug, children are one inch shorter and 4.4 pounds lighter than their peers, researchers have documented.” 1 (more…)
Two young children in Indiana will never know the answer from their mother because she is DEAD from smoking K2 Spice. Like so many other people she believed the lies that K2 Spice will not harm her, that it is safe. She gave into the pressure of her friends telling her it is the thing to do and she could not get in trouble. Now her two young children will have to grow up without a mother wondering why for the rest of their lives. K2 Spice is NOT what people say, it is a deadly chemical that was used in psychiatric experiments on lab rats. So, ask yourself one question: Would I drink gasoline because someone told me it is cool and legal to buy?
In order to enter kindergarten, there is a specific date set that usually requires your child to be 5 yrs old in order to start in that grade level.. Otherwise the child generally will have to wait until next year. Well according to a recent article in USA Today called “Youngest in Class get ADHD Label,” it appears that if your child had just turned 5, then he/she is at risk for being mis-labeled with having ADHD. The article says, “Nearly one million children may have been misdiagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, not because they have real behavior problems, but because they’re the youngest kids in their kindergarten class, researchers say.”
In case you don’t know, there is a book published by the American Psychiatric Association called The Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, otherwise known as the DSM. It is used by psychiatrists to diagnose mental disorders. The fifth revision is due out in 2013 and apparently there are even more disorders than ever before. In an article on Reuters called “Mental Health Experts Ask: Will Anyone Be Normal?”, several mental health professionals said, “Technically, with the classification of so many new disorders, we will all have disorders. This may lead to the belief that many more of us ‘need’ drugs to treat our ‘conditions’—(and) many of these drugs will have unpleasant or dangerous side effects.” If there are so many disorders, is anyone normal anymore or has every aspect of normal emotions and behaviors been made into some sort of mental disorder?

Orange Park psychologist fined, suspended – again – for sexual misconduct with abuse patient
Sexual comments to abuse victims, fines and citations fill his past.
August 16, 2010
By Dan Scanlan
An Orange Park psychologist has been reprimanded, suspended and fined $5,000 after being cited with sexual misconduct and failure to meet minimum standards following bizarre comments to a 2008 patient who saw him for help with childhood sexual abuse, according to Florida Department of Health documents.
The Aug. 5 final order follows similar state actions against Johann Nicholas Prewett in the past five years for behavior and comments to other patients at his office at 1727 Kingsley Ave., according to the state.
Prewett, 55, could not be reached for comment. His office number was disconnected and no home telephone number could be found.
The current case dates back to sessions in 2008 with a woman being treated for childhood abuse. Prewett asked her if he should “cancel the appointment because he was so distracted by the way she looked,” according to the case document. He told her he wanted to “jump her bones,” adding that most girls who are sexual abuse victims are basically “nuns or whores” and she was in the “nun stage,” the document says. (more…)
