I think you should re-read the main article because you are completely missing the analogy here.
“Our ideas, our mindsets, and our beliefs feed back into the biology and change the biology in a way you can measure.”
+ are you missing the irony in my response to your ironic comment?
The point of the article I shared is that the classification of diseases in France does not include ADHD. Link that with the OP article and you'll see how the existence of a description of syndromes in the US can make these syndroms actually appear in patients.

Seriously, it is a good read.
