I am certainly not an expert but from what I have read and studied this is my opinion. I don’t think my ADHD ever went away. But we can learn better control and be successful. But in a lot of lives something happens and these traits come back and they again manifest in familiar or unfamiliar ways. Some people never master control and others are able to control everything for a while until everything builds up to such a pitch that everything unravels and they just collapse. Some I am sure do outgrow things. But were they ever really ADD in the first place. Do we diagnose too early and they just haven’t matured at the same rate as their peers. When they mature to the same point as the other 90 percent of the population the manifistation disappears. It is gone because it never really was. Doctors still do not have a conclusive test for ADHD so how can they say whether it is this versus something else. Unless they are running MRI’s and looking at brain patterns there is no absolute. Even then they can only conclusively say that they recognize brain patterns that are consistent with what they see in other ADHD people.
