    Fun to see science catch up with what me and my addied out friends were realizing in high school. A bit late, but good nonetheless.

    Wherever people comment on this article nobody picks up on the almost astronomical, and unexplained, increase in the number of ADHD diagnoses in the last 10 or so years. People have problems but labelling them is a business, it is how people in 'mental health' - psychiatrists, counsellors, ... - build their personal incomes. The authors of DSM are fraudsters - as almost anybody trained in scientific psychology will wearily tell you.

    Interesting to follow as a side reading of this article : What's Wrong with The NY Times Article on ADHD - #1 (of 4 Parts) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8GlhCmdkOw
