Were any of you falsely diagnosed with ADHD/ADD as a kid? How did it affect you? How long did it take your parents to realize that it was bullshit, if they even realized at all? If not, do your doctors still prescribe Ritalin/Adderall/etc to you? Did you know anybody who was falsely diagnosed? How did they take it?
I was falsely diagnosed as a kid myself and always wondered about how many other people out there also went through the same thing because despite the surprising lack of publicity on the whole incident, a lot of people I knew around me at the time (which doesn't count for much I know) were also falsely diagnosed back then.
Also, what motivated people to pull this kind of shit in the first place, besides obvious motivations like money? Stress from the financial collapse?
