Too right. The traditionalist right-wing tabloid press over here (the UK) has an agenda to discredit modern AD's which just seems like sheer malevolence.
Or perhaps they think that treating a mental illness is somehow "un-British". "Stiff upper lip" and all that ****. After all, they wouldn't try to discredit chemotherapy or insulin. (Mind you, they have printed mounds of unexpurgated, unscientific crap trying to link autism to the MMR vaccine, which has directly caused record levels of measles cases.)
Why don't they just **** off and let us take our meds in peace?
