how can you say it is fake, when it is a proven medical illness?
-
Do I have a.d.d.?
-
Where is it proven?
-
What do you mean by "it's fake"? I'm sorry but I've had to live with ADHD all of my life and it's not easy. ADD/ADHD is real, and unless you have it you'll never understand what it's like living with it.

Do you have any idea how much money is made off of ADD by pharmaceutical companies? How many kids are growing up while under the influence of drugs to counter ADD? I can’t imagine growing up while subjected to the drugs these kids are now. You got a fucking normal boy who has a hard time siting still for a one hour class and what, you him give drugs? We got a whole generation of kids raised on drugs to counter act ADD. This is some fucked up shit that going to back to haunt us.

I disagree. Just because someone earns money from one thing does not necessarily make it false. Look at flu vaccine and other items. ADD is very much possible. Wasn't it proven it had something to do with chemical imbalance in the mind? I'll go search for an article

Not all people take medication for ADD/ADHD. Some people deal with the disorder on their own, which I happen to do. I was on meds when I was younger but my parents took me off becuase it made me stay up all night and I was like a zombie, so taking the meds wasn't for me. Medication isn't for everyone, and not everyone needs to use it for ADD/ADHD. I deal with this disorder everyday of my life and it's hard as hell, but I still do it. Just because someone has ADD/ADHD doesn't mean they have to be put on medication because not everyone with this disorder needs it. Boy I sound redundant lol Oh well ^_^

Yeah it has to do with certain functions and chemicals...Not too sure what, but I could look up some stuff and find out.

Oh yer watch out for the big a.d.d conspiracy. My friend has a.d.d and I am pretty sure it's an illness and you saying that is probably quite insulting to people who do have a.d.d. My friend just can't concentrate on ANYTHING and is like always moving around and can't sit still. You saying that A.D.D isn't real is one of the DUMBEST things I have ever heard. There is so much evidence pointing to a.d.d being real and none pointing to it being fake. Half the people with A.D.D don't even take the drugs because most of them would rather not. And as for "kids misbehaving in class" yeah because everyone with a.d.d is a school kid who misbehaves in class (sarcasm). Just because someone has a.d.d doesn't mean they would be disruptive FFS. There is SOOOOO much that doesnt make sense with what youre saying youre just sounding stupid and pissing people with a.d.d off. So think before you post.
