Children's Tantrums May be Re-Classed as Psychiatric Disorders


Childhood temper tantrums, teenage irritability and binge eating may soon rate as psychiatric disorders in the US, according to proposed changes to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, the bible of the psychiatric profession.

The proposals are the product of a 10-year effort to update the handbook, which influences the vast network of American healthcare providers, insurance companies, courts, prisons and universities. At stake are billions of dollars in insurance payments, pharmaceutical sales and medical fees. The proposed revisions, published online today , will be subject to public comment until late April.'

  1. The Brits have been waging war on human beings for awhile now. This is another absurdity, especially the temper tantrums. Who knows what age they will decide it is a problem. A teething child? A sick child? An angry child? A child damaged by the mercury in those enforced shots? Psychiatrists are a Zionist creation and I am sure they were intended to be part of the ruin of the White psyche. Considering that, according to the Jewish Encyclopedia (digs around for quote BRB)

    "Idiocy and imbecility are found comparatively more often among Jews than among non-Jews . . . The Mongolian type of idiocy is also very frequently observed among Jews . . . Among the Jews the proportion of insane has been observed to be very large . . . Jews are more liable to acute psychoses of early age than are non-Jews." (The Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. VI, (1904), p. 556, 603-04).

    "The Jews are more subject to diseases of the nervous system than the other races and peoples among which they dwell. Hysteria and neurasthenia appear to be most frequent. Some physicians of large experience among the Jews have even gone so far as to state that most of them are neurasthenic and hysterical." (The Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. IX, (1905), p. 225).

    It took Freud to tell us ... after all these thousands of years.... it was our mother's faulty toilet training that was responsible for why (fill in your own behavioural problem)....

    These psychiatrists are definitely over rated. Over paid. Over respected. Over assertive. Send them away please.

  2. How ridiculous.

    We all have bad days, does that mean we are all mad or mentally ill.

    I would so hate to live in the USA, it appears that everything seems to be geared towards money or motivated by money.

    How frustrating.

    Ideally I would like to retire to live in a quiet village in Africa, away from TV, mobile phones and all the other problems in life, although I would miss blogging though.
