Wildest Colts Resources -
from John Breeding's website
 
 
 
A resource site for parents, and a challenge to the biomedical mental health industry.
This site offers an alternative perspective to the bio-psychiatric industry, and to the millions of psychotropic prescriptions written for children and adults.
 
We really do have natural, built-in ways of psychological healing. With attention and adequate resource, anyone can reemerge from even the greatest distress and most extreme states of mind.
 
Wildest Colts Resources. Support for adults in their work with young people, especially in challenging situations. Defense of parents from coercion, and young people from labeling and drugs. (Consider a tax-deductible donation to support this work!)
Can I discuss my concerns with Dr. Breeding directly? YES!
