Is this true? Treatments and medications, yes, but do any of the mainstream treatments or medications do anything to actually cure these conditions?
- krageon 8y agoChildren that receive methylphenidate suffer from less severe ADHD symptoms later in life, supposedly. If you look at it through this lens it becomes ethically problematic to deny them the medication, especially because it will not do this in adults (obviously it still treats the symptoms in adults, it just doesn't make them less bad over time).
