💨 Abstract

The article discusses the misconceptions surrounding ADHD, highlighting that while diagnoses have increased, the actual prevalence hasn't significantly changed. The author shares personal experiences of ADHD symptoms and the challenges of getting a diagnosis. They emphasize that ADHD is a serious neurodevelopmental condition, not just a trend or a personality quirk. Increased awareness is important, but it must be accompanied by a deeper understanding to avoid trivializing the experiences of those who live with ADHD.
