Guest guest Posted July 5, 2002 Report Share Posted July 5, 2002 Hi. Count me in as well. This is a great idea and now is the time to get our message out. Think how many kids might be spared from any " diagnosis " if their parents. grandparents, neighbor, friend, etc. reads this message and changes the possible tragic history that we all live with every day. I tell people, especially pregnant women, about thimerosal, my daughter's story, and my experience with so many " diagnosed " kids (I am a special ed. teacher who has worked on child/adol. psych. units for 17 years). I am so sick of psychiatrists labeling kids with DSM diagnoses then pushing drugs on them. I am currently getting out of this " toxic " environment because it is depressing and frustrating to see symptoms, bipolar, ADHD, autism, depression,anorexia, sensory integration dysfunction,etc.be talked about as " psychiatric " and nothing else. Thanks for organizing this and if I can be of any service let me know. --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we raise more than we need, it'll be put toward another ad with another newspaper. I plan on approaching all non-profit contacts in major newspapers to also print something. I'm just waiting on the completed ad to start the ball rolling.
