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.

Yes, because people aren't smart enough to make decisions for themselves.  We need to be protected

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.
