I enjoyed it, but found the ending kinda lacklustre. I’m sure I could appreciate it better if I wasn’t so confused

This is less a mythological horror, and more a story of fiction based in very real and important truth. I think everyone should read it

ADHD Does Not Exist: The Truth about Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder by Richard Saul
informative
reflective
medium-paced
3.0
I think this book raises a lot of very valid and good points about the over-diagnosis of ADHD.
However, it also leaves me with a lot of questions. I’d be really interested in hearing what the authors position on the matter is now, 10 years later. Has new revelations and information that’s been brought out swayed him away from his original argument? Or has it only been further supported?
I think the information in this book is very reflective of the information that was available and known 10 years ago, and I’d be very interested in seeing how what we’ve learned since fits into it.
