That's disturbing. I know there are children who are truly schizophrenic or psychotic who need these medications but it definitely sounds like they're being overprescribed. It's really distrubing that doctors are using them to treat ADHD or hyperactive behavior. Having ADHD sucks and I hate it when people poo-poo it but it's still nowhere as debilitating as schizophrenia. It's not necessary to use anti-psychotics to treat ADHD.
