Over 5 Million Children are Currently Treated with ADHD Medication; Study Shows a Majority May Be Unnecessarily Medicated - PR Newswire - sacbee.com:
How about the majority of children being drugged with ADHA Medication ARE being drugged unnecessarily!
PROVIDENCE, R.I., Sept. 20, 2011 -- /PRNewswire/ -- In a new study published today in the American Journal of Family Therapy, lead researcher Dr. Robert M. Pressman announces for the first time a direct link between bedtime routines and behavior that mimics ADHD in children. The findings propose that of the over 5 million children who are now being treated with ADHD medication, a majority may be suffering from Faux-ADHD, a disorder linked to irregular bedtimes and bed sharing, and does not require medication. The study conducted by researchers at the New England Center for Pediatric Psychology and the Rhode Island College Department of Special Education suggests that simple adjustments to bedtime habits, rather than medication, can eliminate ADHD-like behavior, such as poor attention and hyperactivity.
