INFANTS DOSED WITH PROZAC

Children under 3 are being prescribed antidepressants, behaviour stimulants and anti-psychotic drugs. Most of these are not designed for children, carry recommendations they are not to be used by children, and have certainly not been proved safe for them to use. Isn't this medical child abuse?

CTM Comment: One of the major book projects for 2002 for CTM and Credence Publications is the exposure of psychiatry's abuse of human rights when it comes to treating 'mental disorders' with psychotropic drugs, electroshock and psychosurgery (lobotomy). Today children are being diagnosed as having a 'mental disorder' for a whole range of spurious reasons, resulting in them receiving prescriptions like the ones above. There's nothing like creating an illness to market a drug, and this goes on constantly in the field of 'mental health'. In fact, check out the following in psychiatry's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of Mental Disorders, any one of which will get you drugs. If you think you are healthy, you simply haven't had enough tests yet:

Academic Disorders (any school disruption)
Learning Disorders (not getting the hang of things at school)
Developmental Arithmetic Disorder (bad at mathematics)
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (disobeying parents and authority figures)
Lottery Stress Disorder (stress resulting from not getting the winning numbers)
Chronic Tax Anxiety Syndrome (happens once a year)
Premenstrual Syndrome (now a mental illness)
… and now our favourite: if you disagree with psychiatry's mode of treatments, such as high voltage, mind-bending drugs or having parts of your brain excised, you have mental illness number 15.81 - Non-Compliance with Treatment Disorder.
