Everyone has ADHD.
Let me rephrase
Everyone on the internet has ADHD.
Wait.
Everyone on the internet is self-diagnosed with ADHD.
Almost evryone on the internet is self-diagnosed with ADHD.
There. Better.
The problem is, I really think everyone's exaggerating. Well, not everyone -listen, I'm not doing the little "Psalms" exercise I did above all over again; you get what I mean- but many people feel, in my opinion, they need an excuse to be fucking lazy. Or to excuse their children attitudes. I mean, both you and your partner work and your kids were raised and spoiled by your mother, I know. Why give it a name and prescribe fucking Ritalin?
The readines to diagnose ADHD in the US is truly alarming. 10% of males and 4%percent of females are diagnosed with ADHD there. I invite you to read for a while and find the criteria used to diagnose ADHD. According to it, we ALL have ADHD.
Not related to ADHD, but to american psychiatry: The other day I laughed my ass out at the movies. I went with my girlfriend to see The Invasion. Nicole Kidman play a shrink who is visited by a woman who says her husband is not her husband. So, what does she do? Ten seconds after hearing the poor woman's story, she prescribes an anti-psychotic and sends her home. If that's how psychotherapy's done over there, please leave me here with all these Lacanians!
Hmmf. I wasn't going to write about this. I was about to do that paper for college. Damned ADHD! I don't think any of this made sense.
