These kids are on psych meds because they are already in their young lives messed up. That website doesn't prove anything, it's like publishing a long list of people on chemotherapy drugs who subsequently died and concluding that the drugs killed them not cancer.

But I agree that the drug companies are the tail wagging the dog and we now have broadened the diagnosis of what is a mental illness and who suffers from it to absurd levels where millions of people, especially kids, are on psych meds who shouldn't be on them. I think a child should be profoundly disturbed/dysfunctional before drugs are resorted to. The human brain isn't fully developed until its' early 20's, now they're saying even mid 20's.

Was Elliot Roger on psych meds?
