Your are telling the truth---but our elected and appointed officials do not want to know the truth Medications is not always the answer---Preventive Medicine would eleimate many dangers and unexpected death from the horrors of medications. Though at times medication is required it is definately not a cure all---in fact many times instade of healing it harms. But elected and appointed officials do not care Check their financial disclosure---all of investments with medical and pharmaceutical industries To Lisa Van Syckel—-Thank you for your comment.

Medications is not always the answer—Preventive Medicine would eleimate many dangers and unexpected death from the horrors of medications.

NAMI uses Pharma money to woo NJ Legislators (Senators Vitale and Codey) with campaign contributions and fancy award dinners. In return these legislators block legislation that will enforce a parent's right to make informed medical decisions on behalf of their children, while protecting their children from being haphazardly prescribed dangerous medications. These individuals cause more harm than good. NAMI’s members are nothing more than Industry apologists.
