WHY DEFEND ADHD? is a powerful rant on why society has been fighting hard to keep this disorder, its label, its system and its current so-called top experts in place.
We desperately need an overhaul on this matter, yet common folks who've been diagnosed and labeled are defending their own condition with tooth and nails. How come? Is it really empowering to defend a mental disorder that's based on observed behaviors? Or would it be more empowering perhaps to denounce the disorder and dig deeper to see why those behaviors show up in the first place?
Well, you might be thinking... "I have those behaviors because I have ADHD." But that is not scientifically possible since ADHD was invented as a disorder by humans and your behaviors could not possibly be caused by such a made up disorder. Sure, the struggles are real, but they are due to the friction between an individual and their environment... so, the only power we got is to change the environment to further soothe a person and have them dissolve their ADHD symptoms. Don't think it's possible? Well, listen in on this episode and see for yourself if you're part of the problem or the solution.
