1. A doctor prescribed me that garbage at the age of 12. I took it for a year before i started spitting them out. I went to the nurses office to get dosed like it was a concentration camp before lunch. School was a joke in 90s and i am affraid to say we are a culture in decline.

7. While I agree that a good school environment is important (I could not survive if I still was in public school, and I tried to run away from my public school multiple times when I was) I could also not survive socially or emotionally without my medication. I could not survive without my meds, and I ultimately feel like I can function more rather than less, and I can process more information not less, and I enjoy learning more not less, with my meds than without them.
8. I was diagnosed with ADHD and was given all the drugs, thank you modern education for that, so I feel that I am qualified to say that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ADD/ADHD. I have a different way of thinking than other people or they are different from me, take your pick. Point is when you call something a "disorder" then its a problem that needs fixing. And how do we fix things?? DRUGS! Of course, because God forbid that teachers actually do their jobs and identify the learning needs of children. If you have a child, and you are being told that he/she, more likely the former, has ADD and needs meds, PLEASE don't, please, they will never learn to live with their own mind and will only become drug dependent, don't force them to think the way other people say they should. There are alternatives, martial arts, dance, horse riding, dog training, calligraphy. Hobbies such as these will help your child discipline their own mind. Please don't force some drug on your kids, Ritalin/Adderall, whatever the name, they make you feel like someone else not yourself.  Look at the alternatives, for their sake.

13. Epidemic: The Misdiagnosis of ADHD
    
    "The problem, in the ADHD world and others—particularly psychiatric—is that the companies hijacked the entire field. It corralled all the top researchers and doctors in the field and paid them five, six, even seven-figures apiece to conduct studies all written in the same key: ADHD is more widespread and dangerous than anyone knows, the drugs work wonderfully and with almost no side effects, and that if you don't diagnose and medicate a child, he or she will be doomed to academic and social failure, crash their car, get venereal disease and more."

14. We know this................now how can we change it???
15. The problem with putting advanced students in higher grades is that it is discouraging to the other students. If they constantly see younger students advancing faster than them they will start losing motivation and study even less
16. I think a lot of people want to have the label of ADHD so they can have some sort security blanket covering up their lack of discipline. It is a real problem, but it is not as common as you think it is. It's like your average edgy teen self-diagnosing themselves with depression when in reality they just have bad social skills and none of the other symptoms of depression. That's not to say teens don't have it, but this whole "I NEED a label" trend isn't helping those who actually have problems.
17. "We shouldn't be putting them to sleep, we should be waking them up." Um, RITALIN IS A STIMULANT. It's like, literally, the exact opposite of an anesthetic. Did he actually research these drugs? So, here's the deal. We are actually stimulation deprived, which means our hyperactivity is not the effect of excess energy, but rather a manifestation of our desperation to get adequate mental stimulation. That's why we seek thrills, entertainment, sugar, and attention, even more so than neurotypical people. They give us what we naturally lack. We can't focus on anything less than interesting because we're basically constantly starving. What a stimulant does for us is it fills that gap. It satisfies us so we can direct our attention to the more mundane tasks.
18. Maybe ADHD is "growing" not because the world is changing, but because we're finally beginning to understand what it is. Especially in the past decade since we've started realizing that it's a lot more than just hyperactivity and distractibility. I didn't particularly look or act like a typical ADHD kid, so I wasn't diagnosed until adulthood.
19. "It's still a matter of debate." Yeah, the same way we still debate whether or not vaccines cause Autism or whether or not the Holocaust happened.
20. ADHD eh? Well it didn't exists when I went to school, that's for sure.
