RE: ADHD — A Manufactured Product of Our Times and Society?
Well I swear they have meds for everything these days. I say screw that unless it really is something that is causing a lot of trouble they are more than likely over prescribing meds to just fill quotes and get bonus. Down here they push meds like candy and it’s just disgusting.
Are there people who can’t focus worth a dam? Perhaps. Are those people just bored out of there mind? I would think more than likely. Most places you move as the slowest person. Whether that be school, business, or whatever. Some will just be bored out of their minds and appear ADHD. I can’t say that is there fault or needing to be medicated.
If you can’t do a dozen things today at once then you are quite sadly going have a hard time. Sure it be nice to do a single activity for 5-8 hours strait. There are just other priory and downtimes in that one activity I might as well be doing other things during them.
I think society suffers more from trying to be as efficient as possible as time is on the run these days. Just too much to do and yep it’s not like the old days. Every awake hour of every day can be filled doing something. For many when it’s not that a waste of time.
I’ve seen people on those kinds of meds. Look like they had there soul crushed. Granted there are people on the other end as well who are going 10,000 MPH that really do seem to need some kind of help.
End of the day everything a % of everything out there. People wanting to make money off you just want you to think any % and it’s a bad thing. Screw them.
