I don't think it's fake, but I think there are a lot of kids with ADHD Dx's due to lazy **** poor teachers.
They wanted me on Ritalin as a kid, fact was I was just bored and got into trouble due to the way I learn.
I've seen a kid misdiagnosed as well. He's basically on amphetamine salts, and acts like a junkie on comedowns, or bi-polar. And I can do nothing to help.
So the man who invented ADHD says it's made up, but you disagree? just goes to show how well indoctrination works...
Nobody 'invented' the disorder. That doesn't even make sense.
He observed a set of symptoms and gave it a label.
snopes.com: Dr. Leon Eisenberg - ADHD Is a 'Fictitious Disease'?
German translators seem to think that his argument was not that the diagnosis is fictitious, but that it is over-diagnosed and abused.
That makes a whole lot more sense than a deathbed 'confession' that he just fabricated the entire thing.
Who's to decide which kids get a drug induced helping hand and who doesn't?
I believe autism is becoming the new adhd. While some do have it legitimately.Everyone else believes drugs are the easy fix for their lack of parenting,even though it makes it easier to break them down and brainwash them with whatever the media desires.
