Everything in our society is against us being individuals. As a child in public school, I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. I was medicated so I could conform with the methods used to "teach" me.
Essentially, they labeled me and medicated me so this round peg would fit their square hole.
Luckily, my mom didn't allow me to spend my entire childhood chained to a desk with drugs. As a member of ADD communities, I've seen many people struggling with anxiety and more from being on medication long term.
Interesting article. This all moves right down the chain.
