You can read the findings of the study—reported on by
for Infowars, here1 (see the footnote at the end of this article for the link).But wait. What is ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)? What the hell is it?
Here is a quote from the DSM, the official text listing psychiatric disorders, published by the American Psychiatric Association. Plow through it:
“ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder defined by impairing levels of inattention, disorganization, and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity. Inattention and disorganization entail inability to stay on task, seeming not to listen, and losing materials necessary for tasks, at levels that are inconsistent with age or developmental level. Hyperactivity-impulsivity entails overactivity, fidgeting, inability to stay seated, intruding into other people’s activities, and inability to wait—symptoms that are excessive for age or developmental level.”
Got that?
The definition is all BEHAVIORAL.
The kid does this, he doesn’t do that. Boom. He has a brain disorder.
Brain? Where is the test? Where is the DEFINING diagnostic test for ADHD?
Where is the blood test? The brain scan? The genetic assay?
I’ll tell you where.
Nowhere.
It’s nowhere in the definition of ADHD.
There is no defining test.
The behaviors you just read about? They could be caused by a hundred different factors, acting alone or in concert—none of which have anything to do with a “brain disorder.”
For example, actual causes such as: incompetent teacher, chaotic classroom, the kid is doing street drugs, pesticide poisoning, toxic medical drugs, serious abuse in the home, victim of bullying, a terrible nutrient-deficient diet…
On and on.
The whole ADHD thing is a hoax.
So…1 in 9 US children have ADHD is a hoax.
That’s the headline.
And for this hoax, they’re taking speed-type psychiatric drugs. That’s the cherry on the cake.
Do you need a street-level primer on speed drugs?
