Guest guest Posted June 1, 2003 Report Share Posted June 1, 2003 There is a lot of talk on this list about ADD and depression and stuff. Now, don't shoot me, BUT I too have been depressed, yet the BEST thing I did for myself was to flush my meds (that I resisted being prescribed in the first place) and take charge of my life and get out of the house and make up my mind that it was not going to rule my life. I also stopped seeing my therapist since he was the one pushing the meds on me. I am a firm believer in seeing a therapist. I also believe that meds can be a fix for some people. I don't think that people should use meds and therapists as a crutch, though. Just my opinion. Anyway, the reason that I am posting this is because I have heard of a phenomenon called " Indigo Children " . Has anyone else heard about this? Here is a link to a book called " The Care and Feeding of Indigo Children " on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1561708461/ref=pd_sim_books_3/102-\ 0249727-6389744?v=glance & s=books and here is a quote from Amazon's website about the book: " Doreen explores the psyche of these special kids and offers alternative solutions to Ritalin based on her extensive research and interviews with child-care experts, teachers, parents, and the Indigo Children themselves. Read the accounts of these remarkable children as they explain why they act-out, are aggressive or withdrawn; and what they want from the adults in their lives " Anyway, it sounds as though some of the children of members of this list could fall within this category. Just my $.02 Good luck. Calendar - Free online calendar with sync to Outlook. http://calendar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
