If they don't know for sure, then why are they reporting it as fact? Some people, as many have already said, are misdiagnosed with A.D.D., so it is no surprise that many people would stop medication as it would have not had a benefit to them.

No. A lot of the time when that happens, in my experience, it has been due to other's opinion on the effect or usefulness of the medication. (i.e. you).
