[2015 Feb] Why Are So Many Toddlers Taking Psychiatric Drugs? An analysis of 2013 IMS Data, found that over 274,000 infants (0-1 year olds) and some 370,000 toddlers (1-3 years age) in the U.S. were on antianxiety (e.g. Xanax) and antidepressant (e.g. Prozac) drugs. This report also found over 1,400 infants were on ADHD drugs.

[2015 July] Almost All Psych Drug Use Is Unnecessary: Study
[2015] Ex Pharmaceutical Sales Representative Comes Clean, Reveals Horrors of Western Medicine “A large number of psychiatrists are dishonest, because I see them giving people drugs that they know are brain damaging therapeutics, that they know do not have positive, long-term outcomes, that they know will not cure anything. They just take a list of symptoms and call it a mental illness or disorder.” Children are given fake diagnosis left and right and put on mind altering drugs with suicidal side effects. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental illness today without any scientific proof. No blood tests, urine tests, or PET scans are required. The result is millions of children are labelled and stuck on these drugs, trapped in a culture of hopelessness.
[2015 May] Psychiatric drugs kill 500k+ Western adults annually, few positive benefits – leading scientist Psychiatric drugs lead to the deaths of over 500,000 people aged 65 and over annually in the West, a Danish scientist says. He warns the benefits of these drugs are “minimal,” and have been vastly overstated.....“Their benefits would need to be colossal to justify this, but they are minimal,” he writes. “Given their lack of benefit, I estimate we could stop almost all psychotropic drugs without causing harm.”

[2012 June] Australian three-year-olds targeted for bogus psychiatric disorders such as sleeping with the light on The Australian government and the Australian Medical Association are targeting 27,000 three-year-olds for psychiatric treatment. A new government funded program seeks to treat normal preschool children to discover if they show "signs of mental illness." What are the symptoms of mental illness in three-year-olds? Shyness, temper tantrums and needing to sleep with the light on

[2012 may] Pharmagedon: Big Coverup: What is 2D6? Making our kids & soldiers psychotic! Cytochrome P450 2D6 is the most major metabolic pathway that detoxifies 50% of all psyche drugs and street drugs. 7-10% of Caucasians, for example, are poor or non-metabolizers due to a deletion or non activity of the 2D6 pathway. There is a percentage of Asians and Afrikan Americans who are poor metabolizers. When certain drugs (list below) are given to these demographics, due to their inability to metabolize them, these people become psychotic, homicidal, suicidal, a danger to themselves and society.
[2012 April] WHY YOU MUST HAVE A MENTAL DISORDER IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER by Jon Rappoport Over the last ten years, I've established time and time again that psychiatry is a fraud. From every angle. It's a drug-dealing machine, and all the drugs are toxic and dangerous. Not one single so-called mental disorder has ever, in any patient, been verified by a physical test, chemical or biological. That's because there are no tests. The 300 so-called disorders listed in the bible of psychiatry, the DSM, are invented by committees from menus of behaviors. It's a con. It's an embrace between the profession of psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry. From the psy-op perspective, diagnosing people with these disorder labels means they can be debilitated by the drugs. That makes the nation weaker. That scrambles people's brains. That sedates people. That makes people easier to control. And from another angle, if a person is diagnosed, his thoughts and ideas are no longer considered legitimate.
[2012 April] PSYCHIATRIC DRUGS KILLING SOLDIERS BY HEART ATTACK. MILITARY COVERUP? WHO IS PROFITING? DAUGHTER OF SENATOR WINS DRUG-SUPPLYING CONTRACT WITH THE ARMY By Jon Rappoport a decade ago, the Army wouldn't accept recruits who had taken psychiatric meds, including Ritalin. Now, according to Breggin, the whole policy has been reversed. Soldiers who are heading for the battlefield must agree to take these drugs. If you were mounting a conscious plan to destroy a military force from within, the widespread prescription of psychotropic drugs would be an obvious choice......Here are excerpts from Dr. Baughman's published letter: " [I] opened and financed my own investigation into these unexplained deaths. Andrew White, Eric Layne, Nicholas Endicott and Derek Johnson, all in their twenties, were four West Virginia veterans who died in their sleep in early 2008.... All were on the same prescribed drug cocktail, Seroquel (antipsychotic), Paxil (antidepressant) and Klonopin (benzodiazepine) and all appeared "normal" when they went to sleep.
HOW THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY IS PREYING ON OUR
CHILDREN by K.L. Carlson, M.B.A. Unlike street drug pushers who must
try to entice children before they reach school, the pharmaceutical monster
bought the rights to legally drug millions of children in their classrooms. The
monster has bought the rights to mental health testing of all children and
teenagers without parental consent, per the New Freedom Commission (NFC) created
by a presidential executive order in 2002. Created without votes or public
awareness, the NFC is a commission of people with strong financial ties to the
pharmaceutical industry. The commission exists for the purpose of getting mental
health screening into all public schools.......The 2010 school year begins with
20 percent of all high school students addicted to one or more prescription
drugs.
.....The 2010 school year begins with 42 percent of foster children, including
preschool age, being made to take addictive, deadly drugs – that have no health
benefits, but do have extreme health risks. The 2010 school year begins with 8
million children labeled with mental disorders that are voted into existence.
Labels that make the children believe something is wrong with them, that they
are not normal. The 2010 school year begins with 4.5 million children being made
to take toxic, addictive drugs rated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA)
in the same Schedule 2 of the Controlled Substances Act as cocaine,
barbiturates, and opiates.
.....In 2005 the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at
Columbia University reported an astounding 15.1 million Americans were addicted
to prescription drugs.

[2011 Nov] GPs gave 15,000 children as young as five chemical cosh Soaring numbers of children as young as five are being chemically coshed with antipsychotic drugs, an investigation by Channel 4 News has found. A staggering 15,000 children under the age of 18 were prescribed the medication last year by their GPs – double the number a decade ago.....nobody knows what the long-term side effects are and pharmaceutical companies have blocked all requests for data on trials involving children.
[2010] Whistleblower in Coventry: Dr Yolande Lucire and Big Pharma Thirteen years ago she began to notice alarmingly high hospital admission and suicide rates among patients treated with SSRIs and atypical antipsychotics in New South Wales's Greater Southern Area Health Service...More recently it has become clear that a large percentage of people being treated with antidepressants can't metabolise them due to common genetic mutations.
50% of the psyche drugs need 2D6 to metabolize, those who are found to be poor metabolizers, missing 2D6 should not be vaccinated The interesting thing I found was that the glutathione pathway implicated in vaccine injury/ Autism Spectrum is found on the same cytochrome 450. Vaccines are so toxic that if someone is a poor metabolizer they will sustain a vaccine injury; then get misdiagosed as ADHD, ADD, etc and then given harmful life debilitating drugs.[2011 Aug] The Truth About Psychiatric Drugs--3 New Studies We now know that SSRI antidepressants and the 'atypical' antipsychotics have failed decisively to demonstrate therapeutic benefits in clinical trials and in clinical practice Instead, these drugs have triggered debilitating, chronic illness and even life-threatening risks: antidepressants increase the suicide risk and trigger serotonin syndrome, which is potentially fatal. Antipsychotics undermine normal metabolic, cardiovascular, hormonal function, resulting in cardiac arrest, obesity, metabolic syndrome and diabetes.
[2011 July] LOGIC AND PSYCHIATRY
[2011 June] BIGGEST BULLSHITTER IN AMERICA? WHO IS DR. ALLEN FRANCES? by Jon Rappoport Here is the import of Dr. Frances' words: People need to hope for the healing of their troubles; so even if we're shooting blanks and pretending to know one kind of mental disorder from another, even if we're inventing these mental-disorder definitions based on no biological or chemical diagnostic tests-since the tests don't exist and we're just juggling lists of behaviors-it's a good thing, because people will then believe there is hope for them; they'll believe it because we place a name on their problems...

[2011 June] PSYCHIATRIC POPULATION CONTROL by Jon Rappoport Kaplan states that, in 1995, there were fewer than 20,000 outpatient visits for pediatric bipolar disorder in the US. As of 2003, that number had swelled to a mind-boggling 800,000. And yet there is no recognized psychiatric category called "pediatric bipolar disorder." .......In what sense is all this population control? When you move in on the mind and make arbitrary diagnoses and follow up with highly toxic drugs, you are essentially waging war on the brain. These figures should indicate the scope of that ever-expanding war.

[2009] Is the
FDA Bipolar or Complicit in Legitimizing IIlegal Marketing? The FDA
expanded approval process for toxic drugs is unaffected by evidence uncovered
by the US Justice Department showing the studies to be flawed, if not
fraudulent. In February the Justice Department charged Forest Laboratories
with illegally marketing antidepressants Celexa and Lexapro to younger
patients and burying a study that showed suicidal side effects in children. But
the next month the FDA approved Lexapro for depression in adolescents 12 to 17.
In March the Justice Department charged AstraZeneca with knowing and hiding
the diabetes side effects of Seroquel. But this month the FDA considers
expanding the antipsychotic's approvals to depression and anxiety.
And in January, Eli Lilly pled guilty to promoting its antipsychotic Zyprexa
for unapproved and dangerous uses in a $1.4 billion settlement. But in March
the FDA approved Lilly's Zyprexa/Prozac combo, Symbyax for treatment resistant
depression (TRD).
[2008] Mental Health: It's Life, Not Depression by Dr. Julian Whitaker
[2007] Reported suicides - more than 80 percent got psychiatric drugs, well over 50 percent got antidepressants This information has been concealed by senior (psychiatric) officials at the National Board of Health and Welfare. It was contrary to the best interests of Big Pharma and biological psychiatrists. It blew the myths of antidepressants and neuroleptics as suicide protecting drugs to pieces. It would also have hurt the career of many medical journalists to take up this subject; journalists who for years have made their living by writing marketing articles about new antidepressant drugs. So nothing has been written about this in major media in Sweden.

Drugs linked to brain damage 30 years ago
[2009 Oct UK] Doctors under fire as an alarming numbers
of children are given drugs to combat depression and ADHD Over 420,000
prescriptions were issued to children under 16 with attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in 2007 - up 33 per cent since 2005. The number
went up 51 per cent for youngsters aged 16-18, reaching 40,000 in 2007.
During this period NHS guidance endorsed at least three drugs
for ADHD where other treatments have failed, despite fears about side effects
and some critics complaining it medicalises antisocial behaviour.
More than 113,000 prescriptions of antidepressants were
issued to children under 16 in 2007, a six per cent increase over two years.
Almost 108,000 antidepressant prescriptions went to
16-18-year-olds, which was unchanged over the period.
Over 86,000 prescriptions for anti-psychotics - powerful
tranquiliser drugs - were issued to children under 18 in 2007.
