Thanks for posting - my son was (finally) diagnosed with ADD as a 30-year old, he had three consultations.
He is on a very low dose of a Ritalin-type drug and told me for the first time in his life he’s able to calm and slow his mind down and concentrate on his work without getting constantly distracted by anything and everything. For him, it seems to work.

My son is the same age and has the same condition (plus others) - and starting a few years ago Adderall produced the same result (he’s currently a college junior, majoring in cyber security and has a 4.0 GPA). He’s not lazy and “beating it out of him” would have been a simpleminded non-solution. Is it over-diagnosed in some people? Certainly. Is it a real disorder in others? Certainly.
