Cost is a major factor when it comes to how a condition affects someone. Treatment plans and medications can be expensive, and planning around payment can be stressful. A study from 2007 Trusted Source suggested that the “cost of illness” for a person with ADHD is $14,576 each year. That means ADHD costs Americans $42.5 billion dollars each year — and that’s on the conservative side of ADHD prevalence estimates.

Medicines and treatments aren’t the only costs to consider when dealing with an ADHD diagnosis. Other factors that can add cost include:

      • education expenses
      • loss of work
      • juvenile justice
      • healthcare costs

In other words ADHD is another “Cash Cow” for Big Pharma… 

US Public Health, for all practical purposes, IGNORES ADHD.  It focuses on minor issues like measles, mumps, etc..  Issues where there is a vaccine available.

Let me say that again, so it sinks in:

“It focuses on minor issues like measles, mumps, etc..  Issues where there is a vaccine available.”

US Public Health ONLY has one tool – VACCINES…

So let’s examine the problem from REALITY…

Stay tuned…
