I agree. A lot of these “disorders” are ridiculous. Soon they’ll be labeling EVERYONE in the world with some disorder; everyone will think of themselves as insane with a DISorder. Doesn’t Dis- imply that something is wrongful and should be changed? Lumping symptoms together and calling it something wrong is just wrong….

Do not rule out the toxic shots we are forced to submit to on the pretense it is helping us maintain health. Once, the only pre-school vaccinations required were the DPT (if memory serves)–diptheria, whooping cough and tetnus.

Now the regimen has taken a quantum leap with infants getting multiple
innoculations–filled with mercury, and/or other adjuvants; shots that combine several anti-disease concoctions in one dose are particularly bad news.

Autism has been linked to these shots; other neuro disorders are
skyrocketing, as well. Time we stopped depending on experts to tell
us what is good for us. The Amish, I have read, are exempted from
vaccinations because they do not send their children to publilc
schools. Incidents of above maladies in Amish children are nil.– Aha! Connect the dots……

Psychiatric medicine is an oxymoron. Many professional therapists come to that field because they themselves are searching for answers to their own
or family maladjustments. Being surper sensitive to outside stimuli,
look how many great artists become addicted to one or another substance.
Stepping out of the mainstream is risky.

As modern society becomes evermore complex, denying natural and ‘normal’
behavior due to a need to overcontrol, neuroses escalate. It’s a wonder any child survives childhood under these conditions.

The insistance that we all conform to a set paradigm leaves the individual
dehumanized, emotional growth stunted. So enter the pharmaceutical industry in league with the medical industry and voila! – America the medicated. Money in prescribing all sorts of toxic “aids.”

YES! And I bet Acorn could help you get federal funding through the Stimulus (hah!) plan to analyze how to better express your inner lesbian. I think you need a $250,000 grant! And then of course, if you are at all discriminated against for expressing your inner lesbianism, we can make it a hate crime!

(I am no way minimalizing real prejudice and discrimination against homosexuals. I’m just being snarky in regards to Banned in Beantown as a way he can get what he wants AND take advantage of the governement financially.)

Digital Anomalies Act.

That’s one for the DSM. We could call it Byrd’s Syndrome

ADA = Americans with Disabilities Act

I was discussing the new ADA law with a nursing student. I reported that U.S. Senator Bob Dole promoted this bill after his own disability, the result of combat service in WWII. She didn’t know whom I meant. ‘You know, the man with the clenched fist with the pencil sticking out?’ Now, she nodded her head. ‘Yep; that’s him,’ I said, ‘five fingers and a pencil. Poor guy. Anyway, that’s why they call it the ADA, the Americans with Digital Anomalies Act.’ (For a moment, she thought I was serious.)

ADA = Americans with Disabilities Act

I remember I was discussing the new ADA with a nursing student. I pointed out, U.S. Senator Robert Dole, a veteran of WWII, was largely responsible for the law. She wasn’t sure whom I meant. ‘You know, the guy whose hand is in a permanent clenched position, with the pencil sticking out?’ Now, she knew who I was talking about. ‘Yep; five finders and a pencil. That’s why they call the law, the Americans with Digital Anomalies Act.’ (She thought I was serious.)
