It might be better to say that the current definition of ADHD is grossly inadequate. The problems start from issues as basic as treating ADHD as one monolithic "thing," when in fact it is a symptom that can arise from many different diseases, some of which respond better to different medications than others, and some of which do not respond to medication at all. By treating them all as a single disease, we do almost all of their sufferers a grave disservice.
