The time has come for Debunking ADHD and exposing how this invented disorder created to drug children does not exist. Despite unanimous agreement that no test exists to identify ADHD, 6.4 million American children are labeled ADHD. To make matters worse, approximately two-thirds of those children diagnosed ADHD are prescribed drugs with many dangerous side effects, which include developing more serious mental disorders and death. After six decades of marketing stimulants and scaring parents into thinking something is seriously wrong with their highly creative, energetic, and communicative children, ADHD drug manufacturers still claim they have no idea what ADHD drugs actually do to children's brains. They make such claims when research shows ADHD drugs cause permanent brain damage in lab animals. How can children reach their full potential, if they are drugged? How can they dream about achieving greatness and release their imagination and creativity when they are drugged every day, year after year, to do the opposite? This book provides you evidence to say no to ADHD and gives 10 Reasons to Stop Drugging Kids for Acting Like Kids!

In Accidental Intolerance, Susan Hawthorne argues that in the past few decades, our medical, scientific, and social approaches to ADHD have jointly -- but unintentionally-reinforced intolerance of ADHD-- diagnosed people. We have packed social values, such as interests in efficiency and productivity, into science and medicine. In turn, scientific results and medical practice reinforce the social values, and stigmatize those considered "disordered." Overreliance on the DSM model of ADHD contributes to this process; it may also slow the growth in our knowledge of mental health. Yet many of our current practices are optional. For ethical, practical, and scientific reasons, then, Hawthorne argues that those involved with ADHD-including clinicians, scientists, educators, parents, policy-makers, and diagnosed individuals-need to examine and change the attitudes, concepts, and practices typical of today's approaches. To make this case, Hawthorne examines both standard practices and ongoing controversies in medical, scientific, and social approaches to ADHD, showing why professionals in each setting have chosen the practices and concepts they have. She then explains how the varying approaches influence one another, and how we might interrupt the pattern. Shared goals-decreasing stigmatization, providing new options for diagnosed people, and increasing knowledge-can drive the much-needed change. Adopting inclusive, responsive decision making in all areas of practice will foster it. "Susan Hawthorne offers us a multifaceted, sensitive (and sensible) study of the emergence of ADHD as a distinct diagnostic condition in the last decade or so. Carefully analyzing the research from different disciplines and orientations, as well as the reports of experience of those so diagnosed and their families, she uncovers the ways in which values and factual findings from many directions have interacted to shape this psychiatric category. She concludes with recommendations intended to improve the scientific and clinical understanding of the phenomenon as well as the experience of ADHD-diagnosed individuals. An excellent contribution to contemporary science studies." - Helen Longino, Stanford University
For more than forty years, Drs. Nancy O'Dell and Patricia Cook have worked tirelessly to develop and refine the revolutionary Bender Exercise Program, which can significantly diminish or entirely eliminate the behavior associated with ADD/ADHD and LD. Medications are the primary treatments currently utilized. But these drugs treat only the symptoms of the disorder, not the underlying causes. What's more, their use is usually accompanied by adverse side effects. Fortunately, you no longer have to depend on potentially dangerous medications to "solve" the problem of ADD/ADHD and LD. In Stopping ADD/ADHD and Learning Disabilities, the authors present their drug-free solution. In addition to detailing an eight-month exercise program, illustrated with photographs, the authors offer ways to work around the problem in school, at home, during sports activities, and in public settings. This revised and updated edition also includes findings from the authors' most recent studies; provides the latest information on negative side effects of many drugs used to treat ADD/ADHD and LD; and addresses potentially harmful current practices in baby care--such as the use of walkers and baby swings, and keeping babies on their backs nearly all the time--and their surprising roles in the development of ADD/ADHD and LD behaviors. It's clear that there's an urgent need for alternative therapies and smarter choices for the treatment of ADD/ADHD and LD. That's what Stopping ADD/ADHD and Learning Disabilities is all about.
