From what I've read (could be wrong), there's a connection to these kind of medications in every mass shooting case.

Ritalin used to be way over prescribed, especially in the 90s.

One of my co-workers was clinically diagnosed with adult ADD several years ago, and said the testing was quite long and involved many steps. She feels it was almost designed to favor a negative diagnosis.

I wonder if that was to compensate for the more "generous" (over)diagnoses from two decades earlier.

attention deficit is not the same as depression.  I don't know why we have to medicate the young.  In adults, anti depressants can be a LIFE SAVER.

Why can't depressed people just change their environment which is causing the depression instead of just popping pills.

Is not always a quick, easy fix...but, there are lots of things they can and should try before resorting to medication.

i think the most important thing is not to be alone. Family and close friends are very important.
