Another myth debunked (ADHD)

[Cannuck]

ummmmmmmm, no. Just stating that I wouldn't be going to that idiots office.

But you also wouldn't get a flu shot so you aren't too swift on these matters

So you don't get treated for something you don't have? Okay I think that sums things up.
Perhaps your family members that are on meds would suggest you try them out so their lives improve without meds, that is assumong your conduct here is is an accurate example of what you are like at home.

None of my family members are on meds. You and cannuck are very good at assuming things.

Yet the Dr. in the OP is 'out to lunch'?
"varying degrees of ADD/ADHD and my wife has ADD."
Not assuming anything, if they aren't maybe they should be. You aren't and that is proof that all who should be aren't. I'm even taking a sedative because of a big blast of mold a few months ago. It improves the lives of the ones I have to deal with that are in denial.

My wife has had several young clients that have been "diagnosed" with ADHD that got better simply by removing sugar and wheat from their diet. Big Pharma more or less invented a disease just to sell pills.
