The Real Biederman Scandal

Alliance for Human Research Protection - The Real Biederman Scandal

"One million children have been diagnosed with this new and controversial diagnosis – “childhood bipolar.” And one million children are being treated for “childhood bipolar” disorder and more and more at younger and younger ages."
