We are not overdiagnosing ADHD

[Ionlymakejokestodistractmyself]

Really interesting podcast on Radio 4 with the Tulleken Doctors, expert on there saying we are NOT overdiagnosing ADHD based on the numbers.

I suppose that's not including those who self diagnose, but it must be vindicating for those who have felt belittled by people with this narrative.

I think it’s helpful to have these conversations based on evidence rather than assumptions. ADHD can be misunderstood in both directions, so hearing from people who work in the area can help challenge some of the stereotypes around diagnosis.
