That is not true, and it is referenced as a symptom as early as 1993 in Driven to Distraction, the book I brought up earlier.

Driven to Distraction is a self-help book, not medical literature.

I was referring to official, medical definitions of ADHD and official diagnostic criteria.

It isn’t medical literature, but it references medical literature and is written by medical professionals. Also, whether it was mentioned in medical literature or not, the point is that the symptom was being talked about as early as 1993.
