Is this true (in the UK)?

#1 Post by York Minster »

Someone informed me that in the UK that children under 18 aren't allowed to be given psychotropic medications unless they are the severity level of hurting themselves or others. Is this true? I hope that it is! I'm disgusted with the amount of medicating we do to small children in America, labeling with diseases that didn't exist even 30 years ago. It's quite sad.
And tryin' to figure out what happened to 'Germaine Propaine'
"He couldn't have fell off that hard" Ain't no way
"What happened to the way you was rappin' when you was scandalous
That Canibus turned into a television evangelist"
Plus he raps with his regular voice [BOOSH! BOOSH!]
[BOOSH! BOOSH!] (What was that?) Pet Shop Boys

They can be given them for depression and anxiety, I think. Both of which are on the rise.

Pharmacy wants to earn loads of money. That's why psychologists tell people
they're ill so that they can be 'treated' with medication nobody really needs ...

They destroy healthy bodies, make them fat and diabetic etc. Money seems to
rule the world. Money seems more important to 'doctors' than the body of a hu-
man being they haven't respect of anymore.

the body especially of a child not even grown.
