The NYT article immediately hit a nerve for me, too. I work with college students every day who grapple with the challenges related to ADHD. Misinformation and stigma only add to their stress and hesitancy to disclose. When they discover the individualized treatment that is right for them, it can be life changing. Thank you for voicing these concerns so eloquently.
