Eg, say you are fourteen years old, and your mother doesn’t like that you talk about her smoking pot and forgetting to pick you up from school. So she tells medical professionals that you are violent, skipping school to do drugs, and hallucinating. Teenagers are always liars, so obviously you get slapped with a diagnosis of “paranoid schizophrenia” (despite schizophrenia being a disease that typically presents in early adulthood). They place you on abilify, then resperdal, than invega. You balloon up fifty pounds and develop a permanent twitch in your right leg, subtle but regular spasms in the hands, and probably permanent damage to your brains ability to regulate its emotions.
Then imagine the same people who did that are still operating a medical facility, and still doing this to children.
