Re: CHICAGO — Almost one in five young American adults has a personality disorder

Doesn't that 1 in 5 ring a bell? Those young adults were born in the days that the increased vaccine schedule came into being, the days when thimerosal was an ingredient in childhood and other vaccines.

Huffpost did a column on it. http://www.huffingt onpost.com/ 2008/12/01/ 1-in-5-young- adults-has-p_n_147547.htmlSome of the comments to this are hilarious, like this one:"So let me get this straight. A bunch of psychiatrists got together and released a study saying more people should see psychiatrists? In related news, Mcs thinks you should have a Big Mac, Ford thinks you should buy one of their trucks, Microsoft thinks you should use Vista, and Dockers thinks you would look nice in slacks. I'm sure this has nothing to do with a glut of psychiatrists trying to stay abreast in a recession".Guess some shrinks are having trouble paying off their BMWs these days. >> > CHICAGO — Almost one in five young American adults has a> personality disorder that interferes with everyday life, and even more> abuse alcohol or drugs, researchers reported Monday in the most> extensive study of its kind.> > http://www.foxnews. com/story/ 0,2933,460066, 00.html> <http://www.foxnews. com/story/ 0,2933,460066, 00.html>>

They're talking about " personality disorders " , not about other so-

called " mental disorders " like BP. In the black

community, " personality disorder " is the buzzword for a way that

mainstream medicine likes to pathologize being black or poor for

behaving in ways necessary to survive in certain circumstances.

At the rates the " study " (ha ha, it's from Columbia, currently under

Congressional investigation for being on the take from pharma) is

discussing, it may be that psychiatry is expanding its criteria

for " personality disorder " yet again to scoop more afluent people

into the mix. Or trying to " psychiatrize " a lot of toxic young

people.

I think they're also talking about adults up to about 25 to 29 or so

(?). The tripled schedule seems to have been mostly put in place by

1993 and the bulk of the triple-ehg-exposed kids are still eighteen

and under. Those under 30 still got some thimerosal and they're also

the coming of age of the real Ritalin generation and the generation

who were put on antidepressants in college at high rates. Lots of

food coloring and new chemical exposures for that group as well. Just

as industry likes it, it would be hard to know where to start to

figure out just what might have knocked some of these people silly.

And don't forget, diagnostic criteria have been made deliberately

loose in order to encompass just about anyone. More in the diagnostic

dragnet, more people to drug.
