Dr. Phil I watched you for about a year. I get really angry when you take a serious issue and make it sound silly! Like today watching the little boy crying-- "because he was sensitive and his mother was rewarding him for crying "! End of subject for you! Well millions watch you have will believe this and you will be hurting many many children! Well you laughed and it was like laughing at me the way I have been for years and boy was I angry! I did cry from the day I came home from the hospital. I have ADHD and I am sure this is the reason. I have cried I swear half my life! I am 54 and hate crying but it is a fact of life for me. I suffer from depression - clinical too- and really think this causes this behaviour. It sure isn't to get attention. My mom has guilt because of my depression because she said, " I know you are like you are ( depression) because you cried and cried and your dad would never let me pick you up! I was months old! Then into the sensitive period ,"Oh you are too sensitive!". Well I was! Deal with it and let me! It even said the father was like that. Well clue in Dr. Phil-- study ADHD!! I at times - sound is normal to you put to me it is like someone sreaming in my ear. And colours can be so bright it is so hard to concentrate! You have no idea what we go through. My son has ADD and by the way they had a cognitive test for all kids in grade eight across Canada take it at the same time - he got 99.99%. I took honours math and chem. You can't imagine the work I went through to get him to university-- because people like you as I heard today get on a ban wagon know you are perfect and send that message out to how many. It breaks my heart for those little kids who are suffering and will continue to do so. Give these little guys a break for once Dr.Phil!
