Overdiagnosed: How Profit Reshaped ADHD Care
Rising ADHD diagnoses track less with patient need than with an industry that profits from every prescription. Against the mainstream default of medication first, this take says drug-company influence biases research and guidelines, and that community-based and behavioral approaches address root causes without pathologizing normal behavior.
