  • Firstly I wouldn't trust the psychriatic field with any child. Much just want to drug any child they can for a nice fat medical check. It's also possible he is dealing with his parents break up. I would recommend therapy but I got therapy for my parents break up and all she did was read us sad stories and try to make us cry. So I guess maybe ask the child how they feel about it and try not to be judgemental.

    • I’m not really judging the kid. We all have some kind of mental illness. Me personally, I have depression and anxiety and I see that medication does level me out. It doesn’t zombify me or make me act any different. And others can certainly tell when I’m not taking my meds.

      • Just because you need medication doesn't mean the child does. This seems to be a mistake people will sometimes make. Everyone has their own needs and one must tailor every approach. It's sort of like being a doctor at a hospital. You can't assume that the meds you gave an asthmatic will do anything for that diabetic.
