Regarding approaching others about the subject of psych drugs, it usually helps if you say you've just read the most amazing book from someone who was in the psychology field (worked as a therapist, worked in psych wards, etc.) who knows the real story behind mental disorders and psychiatric drugs. Then give the book or forward our newsletter to them (almost every issue has something about antidepressants in it, since they are very much under attack by many groups).

You'll find, as we have, that everyone has their opinions about psychology (everyone's an amateur therapist), but it's hard to argue with someone from the field who left it, due to what they saw that wasn't right and didn't line up with Scripture. Lisa's experience speaks volumes to people--she has the facts, while others just have their opinions.

Regarding the Christian school your children attend that routinely recommends drugs for ADD/ADHD, you might send the school administrators the following links in an email, and preface it with something like what I've described above. Most people are just ignorant, and when presented with the facts, usually are willing to listen (if not completely agree, due to their preconceptions).
