Hey! Are you paying attention? ADHD is making a lot of noise both online and in real life, with diagnoses in both kids and adults increasing. While it’s easy to dismiss a lot of this as a cultural tendency to label everything as a disorder, the explosion in interest has more complicated roots than you may think. The condition is most certainly a real one, but just who qualifies for a diagnosis and on what grounds are fluctuating questions. Turn your focus to what the experts have to say on this evolving issue. #ADHD #AttentionDeficitHyperactivityDisorder #StoryMD #StoryMDHealth https://str.md/YqD9XG
