Side question -- was ADHD always prevalent in Homo Sapiens?
If not, what could probably cause it (diet, chemicals, modern social environment -- for both parents and patients).
If yes, what is evolutionary benefits of that (e.g. developing narrow specializations, that are helpful for a group/clan/tribe)?
