Yep, bullshit on all of you... you're personal anecdotal experience is as valid to ADHD as diagnosing an appendectomy.

I, my wife, and one of my sons have gone through the social hell of the constant repeated experience of dealing with people that think they know something about ADHD. Your preconceived popular-science laden opinions are NOT right and you feel ashamed to think so.

So, my rage aside, let me say this: there is solid research and solid treatment for those who are diagnosed with ADHD. Please, if it seems to fit your issues, please, PLEASE! go through the process of seeing if medication can help you.

You won't believe the amazing difference and neither will those close to you. There is help... seek it.
