I can’t write such long posts anymore because I am not medicated, so forgive any bluntness or rudeness as unintentional. There are already known causes for the symptoms, and known definitions, there’s no need to reinvent the wheel. Sometimes ADHD medication increase social anxiety and for others they decrease social anxiety.
Whenever I hear ‘big pharma’ I’m starting to roll my eyes. ADHD medication is the single most effective treatment for ADHD. ADHD is a neurological disorder with no known cure.
Coming up with your own alternate theories without understanding the reigning theory seems to me like putting the cart before the horse.
I’m pretty sure most women with ADHD could do without the hirsute properties of taking testosterone and who knows what other strange things might happen.
ADHD is not trifiling, it causes harm in the lives it touches. Educating yourself about it is key.
Hope that helps!
