I agree with everything you said except honestly believe the medications are what are causing the issues in many cases. My concern is that kids are being diagnosed with a chronic condition, and then being treated like ADHD. My favorite fun fact is that people treated with placebo in a NIMH study were less likely to be rehospitalized then those treated with actual medication[1]. Many of the most popular medications(Zyprexa & Sequel) cause insomnia and in extreme situations psychosis. The NIMH completely threw out the study deciding that recommending placebo was completely illogical.
