Curious how others felt about the NYT article.
If you’re ADHD-diagnosed or late-diagnosed: did it resonate, or did it feel invalidating?
If you’re a coach, clinician, educator, or parent: how are you holding these questions? #ADHD

Here’s what I tell clients:
You don’t need perfect science to validate your experience.
Your challenges, your strengths, your brain — they’re real.
There are tools, mindsets, and habits that can help you thrive.
Let’s build from there. (7/8)

The article is kind of a Rorschach test.
If you’re skeptical of ADHD, it might validate that.
If you’ve lived it, it might feel like yet another round of “Do I *really* have this? He says meds don't work. What do I do?"
Either way, it doesn’t offer much for people trying to move forward. (6/8)

If you’re thriving now that you’ve found the right environment or career fit, that’s great. Truly.
But that doesn’t mean ADHD wasn’t there.
Many adults I coach say, “I wasn’t broken — I was just in the wrong system.”
And yes: ADHD can be both contextual and real. (5/8)

Instead, the tone shifts between “ADHD is maybe overdiagnosed” and “the meds don’t work long term” and “maybe it’s not a brain thing at all.”
That may be provocative. But for many, it’s destabilizing, especially those who’ve spent years being told their challenges aren’t real. (4/8)

The piece raises important questions about diagnosis, medication, and long-term outcomes — especially in children.
But from where I sit, it risks muddying the waters for adults already trying to make sense of their ADHD experience. (2/8)
