Serious warning against medication to children. It can stunt their growth and cause serious damage that is irreversible.

For the love of all that is pure, do not medicate your children. If they aren't well try to use natural means to make them better. All medication is dangerous on young bodies and minds. If you are taking them to a psychologist ask for mental exercises instead of medication. You will live to regret it if you medicate your children.

Bullshit. This is that misinformation someone claimed earlier you were spreading.

You may view this as giving advice, but others may see it as dispensing medical advice without a license (a crime). I would immediately delete this post and refrain from giving such “helpful advice” in the future.

Please never post again.

Or give your opinion to anyone, in any capacity, ever.
@Anon066 I will cause not all people want to reduce the sizes of their brains with meaningless drugs.

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
@Anon066 There are cases of people that are terminally ill but in alot of cases drugs have been known to disrupt normal body functions. I would like you to Google the amount of people who have committed suicide or other heinous crimes like mass killing while they were under some medication(usually psychotropic). It is causing more harm than good in many cases. In the few cases were it does well to people it is usually because that person was an adult or an elder and their bodies and minds have already developed at the point of medication. Our children are dying at high levels, and there is usually a drug behind these cases. Women and children are targeted the most. The men that are targeted usually live alone(not always but usually) and have few friends.
Sorry but as someone who developed a mental health problem as a child this is bunk. If it wasn't for medication I would be crying and screaming in a corner with my heart rate through the roof.
You claim that people on meds are killing themselves but did you ever think it was the condition they were being treated for that drove them to it and not the medication?
@SW-User Try this, just an idea. Change your diet and do physical activity like jogging. You need to stress the body to heal the mind, believe me. Eat more veggies and fruits. More healthy meats like lamb or cow. Jogg and work out atleast one hour a day. Soon as you have done that for atleast a week you will realize you hardly need medication since your mind will be getting adjusted to this new system and with that shift the bipolar symptoms will also shift. Body affects mind, trust me.

@lightshinesthroughdarkness This is just insulting. Do you think I haven't tried? I have been very, very fit in the past. I was a serious swimmer in school and I used to walk 40 kilometres a week. I eat very little meat. I'm thin and healthier than most people my age. If that cured it, I would have been cured 25 years ago.

I don't believe you or trust you when you're talking about something you don't understand.
@SW-User I'm just trying to help you. Diet affects life, it could be stuff you are eating. I am not trying to insult you. If you don't change your life medication could ruin it when you aren't young and healthy anymore

I think everyone should ignore what you wrote and stick to the professionals opinion when it comes to medication and the health of their children
@PlumBerries but they won't

Why did you post this under "Seeking Advice"? Isn't there a group called "Offering Unsolicited Advice"? Your post should be made there.

I hope you are trolling.
@Miram If you want to medicate your children you will be the one to regret it, not me.

@lightshinesthroughdarkness I am still hoping you're trolling.

that'll cure their spinal meningitis 🙄
Like for what illnesses? Mental exercises for measles? 🤔
@Dewms Measels can be cured through proper diet and staying in bed. People take kids to mental doctors who medicate them so they should rather give them mental activity than destroying the growing mind with drugs.

@R5000 This was not meant to be joke by the way, I'm very serious about this.

What about crystal meth? Is it safe to give them that?
@YoungGunner whats that?

Some medication is necessary.
@BlueRain Maybe but people need to understand how rare those cases are. Human beings are strong and we have progressed as a society without medication for millions of years. This is a very dangerous trend we are on, children being medicated. I fear for the future if people don't try to stand up against these doctors. Think about it, why are children who probably have the healthiest bodies amongst us being targeted by the mental health industry and the medical industry? They don't really have any power to refuse, forced medication. Usually children with rich parents and homeless people that have no power to help themselves are medicated by force or against their will. All about money and control.
BlueRain · 51-55, F
Some cases, you are right. There is the other side of the spectrum when parents refuse to medicate their child and they die.

@lightshinesthroughdarkness You've stated a lot here. Let's break this all down. To start, please post reputable links of the research done that will support your claim in your first and last sentences.
@SW-User It's just what I think and see around me. Social knowledge not necessarily factual but probably true.
SW-User
@lightshinesthroughdarkness No, what a person thinks isn't the same as "true." What you've stated here is your opinion, nothing more.
What type of medication are you talking about?
@lightshinesthroughdarkness this is ridiculous


If a child has a fever you must medicate
@InOtterWords What if you changed their diet and send them to bed. They usually wake up feeling better and eating veggies and fruits has cured many people of many ailments. Healthy lifestyle, lamb instead of pork, peas instead of candy. Just change the diet of the child, even if you only make small changes like that you will see the difference in less than a month.
@lightshinesthroughdarkness ok....my kids have a very healthy balanced diet and are rarely allowed refined sugar. If a child has a fever they do not want to eat and quite honestly it would take too libg for them to eat, digest dor it to act. Also, children cannot regulate their own body temperature and so are at risk of convulsions if their temperature cannot be brought down.

Not medicating a sick child is just cruel
Do you even have children?

@Rokasu C'mon, play nice.

@CoffeeFirst Dont medicate your children is about as hateful and uninformed as it gets.
CoffeeFirst · 56-60, F
@Rokasu Well, I've seen more hateful messages on here but I just thought that was a little extreme of a response. I do agree that not vaccinating is akin to child abuse since it exposes the child to huge risk.
