The reality of ADHD
ADHD seems to attract an undue amout of criticism and controversy. Recently CHADD - children and adults with adhd posted an article from science based medicine. Here is what CHADD says: '"There are many legitimate criticisms of #ADHD and psychiatry, but that does not mean ADHD is a fraud. The scientific evidence, both clinical and neuroscience, is robust. Kagan’s criticisms are mostly greatly exaggerated, or they are straw men because they are already incorporated into the standard of care. Unfortunately, you will not be exposed to any of that from reading any of the popular press breathlessly reporting that ADHD is a fraud." So - read this.' I have read the article and it is a well written if slightly long paper on the reality of ADHD, the difficulty in diagnosing the disorder and recent research which is shedding light on the disorder that continues to affect around 6% of any given population. Enjoy the read and what science is discovering about ADHD. https:
