Being skeptical of the sudden rise of "everything is ADHD" when the end game is access to stimulants following years of relaxed regulation on prescribing those drugs is perfectly reasonable.
It's amazing how every symptom became ADHD when unscrupulous VC-backed startups took the pandemic as an opportunity to start marketing and prescribing ADHD medication online.

I will say though it's interesting how in the US ADHD seems to be as common as hay fever whereas in the EU seems to me that it's very rare to be prescribed for ADHD.
