A member asked:
Why are we all getting diagnosed with add?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Overdone: Add is overused to deal with children with behavioral problems that may not be add in origin. The pharmaceutical companies that make add drugs promote them heavily way out of proportion to the amount of this condition in the population. Teachers encourage this diagnosis to maintain order in their classes. This area needs re-evaluation.
