Is ADD as prevalent as we think it is?
I know so many kids who claim to be victims of Attention Deficit Disorder that it could be seen as an epidemic.
I consider myself a true millennial, hampered with a serious case of ‘I want it now’ syndrome and guilty of countless cases of impulsive multitasking. But I wouldn’t go so far as to say that I have a behavioral disorder. Rather, I think of myself as a product of my fast-moving environment. Technology is only getting faster and faster, and with that, the way we think will continue to adapt.
What do you think?

This is an awesome lecture that tackles many of the topics you bring up. I implore anybody who sees this post to watch this video. It is done by psychiatrist and professor, Allen Frances, who served on the committee that pieced together DSM-5 .
