OVERDIAGNOSED? NO DOUBT! Is a bit of an homage to a chapter in Alan Schwarz' book "ADHD NATION", where he describes the taping of a self-development talk show "The Revolution" hosted by Ty Pennington as it really is a disguised operation by Big Pharma and Dr. Ned Hallowell to sell more ADHD medication. Listen for yourself and see how advertising and media like this can cause people to 'self-diagnose' themselves and add to the clear over diagnosis of this so-called 'disorder'.
It saddens me and often pains me to find out that our main scientists, doctors and experts at the top do not invest much time and energy in actually finding out why we overdiagnose our children, even thought most of the same experts agree that it is "...definitely Overdiagnosed."
Listen in for yourself and see what you think.
