Diagnóstico : HUMANO
Os invito a leer la preciosa carta con la que un padre que perdió a su hijo universitario de 20 años, de la forma más trágica que se puede perder, reflexiona sobre lo que se ha convertido en un tema de enorme interés y preocupación ahora en la sociedad americana, el sobrediagnóstico de TDAHs y la sobremedicación.
Los médicos, en este caso, son los que lanzan la alarma "hay menores y adolescentes medicados como TDAH sin serlo por la presión de sus propios padres".
Este padre comparte con todos nosotros su experiencia personal y la de su hijo, diagnosticado TDAH y medicado a su pesar y su trágico final..
Destaco dos párrafos, aunque no sean los más importantes. El artículo completo está escrito desde el sentido común , la experiencia y la generosidad de un padre que amó ,ama y amará a su hijo por siempre jamás.
Ours is an age in which the airwaves and media are one large drug emporium that claims to fix everything from sleep to sex. I fear that being human is itself fast becoming a condition. It’s as if we are trying to contain grief, and the absolute pain of a loss like mine. We have become increasingly disassociated and estranged from the patterns of life and death, uncomfortable with the messiness of our own humanity, aging and, ultimately, mortality.
Challenge and hardship have become pathologized and monetized. Instead of enhancing our coping skills, we undermine them and seek shortcuts where there are none, eroding the resilience upon which each of us, at some point in our lives, must rely. Diagnosing grief as a part of depression runs the very real risk of delegitimizing that which is most human — the bonds of our love and attachment to one another. The new entry in the D.S.M. cannot tame grief by giving it a name or a subsection, nor render it less frightening or more manageable.
The D.S.M. would do well to recognize that a broken heart is not a medical condition, and that medication is ill-suited to repair some tears. Time does not heal all wounds, closure is a fiction, and so too is the notion that God never asks of us more than we can bear. Enduring the unbearable is sometimes exactly what life asks of us.

Vivir la Semana Santa es entrar cada vez más en la lógica de Dios, la lógica del amor y del don de sí.
