What's the prior for assuming they don't all have ADHD?
Depression and anxiety feel like things that you might have a genetic tendency towards, but that a specific shared experience might bring out in multiple people and people wouldn't be surprised by that.
It feels like ADHD is being treated more as thing you have or don't, but is that correct?
One of the recommended things for ADHD is excercise, which kind of implies you could make someone ADHD by stopping them excercising.
If that's not real ADHD then how can excercising more help? If it helps, you've not 'got' ADHD, you just needed more excercise?
