What I don't get, is. The Doctor who discovered ADHD admitted to lying about it. In other words, he made it all up. So why are other Dr.s still handing it out Drugs like dexedrine) like candy. Speed isn't candy.

Do you have any links or citations? I'm curious to read up on that.

Recently, a founding father of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), announced a few months before his death that … “ADHD is a prime example of a fictitious disease.”
After turning 87 years old, American psychiatrist Dr. Leon Eisenberg made this statement to the German weekly Der Spiegel and seven months later, he died. Apparently, he had decided to come clean and confess before moving to the beyond.

"Every kid is full of energy and has trouble sitting quietly still for hours at a time because their teacher wants them to because that is what the curriculum calls for.
There is nothing that pushes me closer to violence than when I hear about all of this child abuse that is going on disguised as 'normal'..."
I'm sorry for miscommunicating my message but I agree with you fully.

I don't know about this device... But I do know about kids with ADHD I have 3. No it is not just hyperactivity. I could write pages on the subject, on how it affects them and us as parents, but I won't. Suffice it to say, some kids are just hyper, others truly do have ADHD, there is a big difference.

Probably a fairly smart kid, too. I was that way ... way too much energy and prone to doing things like that.
