In some countries they think ADHD is a made-up disorder because it's so overdiagnosed which si also incredibly damaging. I just wish people were way more careful with the diagnosis. The need for them can be very harmful if given to someone who does not need them.
This is my view on ADHD in particular. I have an official diagnosis-like months of testing were done on me as a child to MAKE SURE I had it. But I know MANY MANY kids get diagnosed with it when they do not have it and they just get hocked up on unnecessary medication.
I know this is usually kind of a mixed bag when you get diagnosed with something.
I know for me I have been diagnosed with about four medical/mental health issues within my entire lifetime.
In some cases the diagnosis is such a relief but in some cases I wish there wasn't a diagnosis as well...
