Thanks for posting this. I find a lot of self-described ADHD folks seem to describe fairly normal ennui that makes up life. My wife talked her way into a diagnosis (innocently, and she hasn't taken the medication) and she has never had any issues with aptitude: multiple 4.0 degrees, self taught software career, ultra runner etc.
I think folks are conveniently lying to themselves, and I'm not here to ruin anyone's party but I do get concerned in parenting circles when this kind of over-optimizing of normal laziness gets sold as childhood ADHD.
