The truth behind ADD Many people don’t even believe the disorder exists, due to the fact that everyone seems to get diagnosed with it. If you are considering what ADD has been made out to be then yes your right it is a bullshit disorder. Many people say that lazy stupid people need an excuse to justify the fact they have nothing to offer so they get diagnosed with a bullshit disorder. This is also true in many ways. ADD is so misunderstood that an ADD person could easily get diagnosed with not having it. ADD is not a personality disorder as many would think. ADD people have physically different mind chemistry. For example coffee and other things with caffeine would put an ADD person to sleep where as most people would get an energy boost from it. This chemical twist around can lead to certain personality traits, but just because you have these personality traits does not make you ADD. Basically as everyone knows, ADD is an attention deficit disorder. But the huge misconception is where ADHD comes into play. Many people tend to think that the reason for this lack of concentration is because of too much physical energy. This cannot be the case because nothing takes more physical energy then pure concentration. This physical energy gets confused often with mental energy, because technically all energy is directed by the mind. For examples when you are sleeping physically you are calm and rested, meanwhile the brain is more hyper then ever, having to de-fragment. When you are awake you are physically more active as your brain is more inactive. ADHD doesn’t exit. If someone is too energetic to sit calm and get a task done, lets say homework for example then the person has no discipline because the main thing it takes to get the homework done is the physical energy. When you have an overdose of mental energy, then you keep getting distracted, staring out into space without control, anything to keep you from pulling your hair out. So another basic misconception for the people who actually believe ADD to be a real disease is that they think the imbalance is too much physical energy, when really the imbalance is too much mental energy.
