Can someone explain me why this has so many downvotes? Is it bad experiences with medication? Is it something based in science? Something not related to the content of the article?

Yes, I heard we're way better at diagnosing adult ADHD these days. People just had to somehow cope on their own, two decades ago. They didn't get a diagnose, let alone medication, back then...
(It's just scientific progress, though. And attention to detail, like how things affect different groups of people differently (ie. different symptoms for men/women). I don't see how it's "Not the Onion"?!)
