There's a few videos making their way around TikTok claiming that ADHD isn't real, or at least that it's a positive trait (i.e. "superpower"), and I have thoughts. First of all, ADHD is real (https://t.co/KzABhjCrz1) and adult ADHD is real (https://t.co/hhaQrK3Y0U) (1/11)

There is shockingly little evidence on adult #ADHD. This #article concluded that even though it is an impairing lifelong condition in adults, it is currently underdiagnosed & treated, leading to ineffective treatment & higher costs of illness. https://t.co/2EAuXAMFwF #Friday
