Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is in the news in a big way. With the new Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, Robert Kennedy, Jr., placing great weight on science to support federal government health mandates and regulations, ADHD should be the poster child of zero science and first in need of review.

Of interest is that in the last two weeks, both the New York Times Magazine and the DailyMail.com ran lengthy articles addressing Secretary Kennedy’s efforts to review the risks associated with psychiatric medications like antidepressants, antipsychotics, benzodiazepines and methylphenidate. In both of those articles, the Scientologists were essentially receiving kudos for being the first to question the drugging of America’s children for the alleged ADHD.

During a 2005 interview with then “Today” show host Matt Lauer, actor Tom Cruise claimed that Brooke Shields was “irresponsible” for taking medication for postpartum depression because “it didn’t cure anything.” Fast forward two decades and Shields, in a new memoir Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old, lets the public know that Cruise “eventually” apologized for shaming her explaining that “it wasn’t the world’s best apology, but it’s what he was capable of, and I accepted it.”

Gee, that’s so big of the actress considering that Cruise was accurate in his statements. Shields might not have liked the delivery, but Cruise was right that antidepressants “didn’t cure anything.” More galling, though, is that Shields continues to get it wrong. Shields says of Cruise’s remarks that “it was so ridiculous to me. It’s not about the moral thing, or the right thing, or the good thing. It’s about who has more power.”
