I know I will get downvoted. But Tom Cruise is right. Psychiatry is largely nonsense and the DSM book is almost arbitrarily made up by a bunch of suits. In most of the higher quality studies, antidepressants are no better than placebo. And “ADHD Does Not Exist”, that’s book title by one of the foremost ADHD psychiatrists who helped popularize it but is now calling for a reversion. The symptoms exist, not ADHD is not a real disease.

This is just logic chopping. You could say the same about autism or depression, as it varies so much across people.

Maybe my car doesn't exist? It's just collection of metal parts that when put together happen to get me to the shop?

That is extremely strong claim. From what I searched, this is not what higher quality studies found. Instead, they found them statistically working for some issues and not working ... for other issues.
