ABSTRACT

FOR any parent, having to accept your child needs psychiatric drugs must be agonising. But when Susan Bevis’s 13-year-old daughter Amy suffered a breakdown after a vicious campaign of school bullying, drugs seemed the only option – as instructed by psychiatrists.

Schizophrenia, ADHD and Autism, to name a few are believed to be over diagnosed with  untested medications on children.  Much more covered in the article in relation to mental illness diagnosis. Would love a day when doctors and researchers have more authority and research clout than the pharmaceutical companies.
