Great post Tena

I gave birth to a very active, creative and stubborn child. Fortunately, I worked for a very active, creative and stubborn pediatrician. :D He didn't believe in overmedicating children, even when mothers would become angry for not prescribing antibiotics for a common cold (it's important to build up a resistance early on in life, and antibiotics do nothing for a common cold).

He also didn't believe in controlling behavior through medication unless it was absolutely necessary and all other attempts had failed. There were many times when friends and acquaintances would suggest that my son had ADD/ADHD. Heck yeah, he was a handful - but it was due to being a BOY, not having an illness. :rolleyes:

I'm thankful now I didn't medicate him for the problems he endured during childhood/adolescence. He needed to work through those issues and learn from his mistakes BEFORE those apron strings were cut and he was sent out into the world. :cool:

I suspect people just don't want to be bothered with their kids anymore. It's less time consuming to just hand them a pill when their schedule collides with ours - or when they won't obey our commands. :(

dear Alfeeee and dear kathy
 
I had lost my password and chemar helped me! :)

I know what has been done to me in the name of medicine -things
either I can not recall at all and things I do not wish to remember...

and if it were not for God - I would have been dead many years now...
people think we are just fine when we are on "a list of medicine's"
but we aren't, and I was divorced and the lawyer stole at least 50000 and my ex -took the rest...but money can buy your health back.
plus more I became ill - mentally and physically -when the prescription happy B-tard neuro, put me on MIRAPEX for Parkinson's disease, I lost my mind...
and alot of "churchy people" were telling me they would not pray for me because I was demon inhabited?????

but God is real, and God does not play church -and God is not a religion...
he is "LOVE".
take care of the babies - and watch over the sick, and have compassion on the lessor sane - for I have been there, and I am better now -because so
many people prayed for me -like my dear Alfeeeee... :hug:

Tena :hug:

I'm so sorry to hear all this had happened to you. It's so easy to be taken advantage of when you can't think straight, and it's so easy to have the world crumble around you when you don't know what's happening to you.

When I was first diagnosed with familial amyloidosis and told no treatment was available, I threw a major pity party for myself. Over the years, I've come to realize it's been a blessing for me. I have so many strange symptoms from my illness, but at least I know it's just natural progression. I don't need a team of doctors trying to figure out if it's some side effect of medication that might need to be adjusted.

I may be fragile and easily confused, but at least I'm as alert and clear as I can possibly be at this stage in my life. It's my only defense in fighting this illness.

Tena, I'll keep you in my prayers. :hug: So sorry to hear those people at church treated you so badly - shameful.
