I agreed with most of what you said. Right until the end.

Medication is a mixed bag. Great for those that it is great for, but not great for others. ADHD is way over diagnosed. Many disorders can cause lack of executive function, and if you have one of those, a specific treatment is better than masking one of the symptoms.

Yes. There is a lot to tackle in this lane. But part of it is that we need to clearly understand what the lane actually looks like. It isn't simple.

But that's exactly what I meant. There is often a "it is outright bad" mentality, even it is effective and helps certain people. I don't disagree with you.
