Draft statement from the NIMH consensus conference on ADHD -- Nov. 1998.

You failed to provide a link I could check. Furthermore, you failed to define 'brain malfunction', since it could be that they are making the point that -- like clinical depression, which also exists -- no physical 'damage' appears to the brain in an obvious way, but that an observed psychiatric effect is still extant.

I have to go shortly, so I imagine you will have (many) last words.

Some of these problems (along with high blood pressure for example) are due to chemical imbalances. No trauma is seen, but the chemistry just isn't right.
