Thanks for writing out this thorough overview of perception versus what we're able to quantifiably identify. I think you touched on a lot of things I was going for, but didn't expound upon, which leads people to think I was being glib or something. I'm actually genuinely appreciative because while I have a testable, physiological medical condition, I think the ADHD 'testing' without a biological marker that can be seen in a petri dish (so to speak) is wishy-washy. Yes, this goes for Autism too. Yes, I understand these views probably aren't popular, and, in closing, I do feel fine holding this definition distinction in light of people wanting to argue their fuzzy feelings about "What's real" in medical science. >well, we're running a population wide experiment on that now I suspect I also get hositility from pointing out a lot of people think their medication is helping them but they really don't know about long term effects, but don't want to hear that they might be, you know, bad.
