You kids these days... you're all spoiled... fidget cubes... fidget spinners... fidget balls... fidget chains... back in my day we had to find a smooth rock to rub our thumb in. Took forever to find the right rock... and if you lost it... the hunt for the right fidget rock commenced once again. :P

Just you wait, some capitalist will bring fidget stones back into focus. I can see it now, $20 for a rock.
I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great! :)

Despite what people who might not have the diagnoses state, it definitely is a legitimate disorder. I'm not only extremely hyper active, but have an insanely difficult time focusing, I'm always ridiculously restless, I get overwhelmed when I receive too much info, I'm very impulsive, etc. I can stay awake easily for 3-5 days straight cause of it as well, lol. (I certainly need medication to sleep, working out doesn't work, lol. ..and no, it's not because my body has built up a dependency.)

The government-approved meds that I've been prescribed definitely help.

I do think that doctors do misdiagnose people with ADD or ADHD all the time though. Sadly, I grew up with a lot of school teachers who thought my diagnoses was a bunch of crap, and treated me differently/gave me a really difficult time because of it.

Because you're a little fatty-boomsticks that doesn't do any exercise.

Try going for a 8 Km walk alongside 200 press-ups ( do them on your knees to start with ) & I guarantee you'll fall asleep that night.

My brother suffers with ADHD and i can guarantee it is a legitimate disorder because i have seen him at his worst without medication and also seen the completely different person he becomes while on medication.

As for misdiagnosing, at a younger age is can and usually is classed as basic naughtyness and until diagnosed, treated as just that and no one cares.

Did you see him without medication once he had been on it?
