Here are a few excerpts:
- And the teachers, the nurses and the doctors in the halls said the people that you’re giving this headache medicine to are listening in class. They are learning. They are asking questions. They are even coming to the teachers and saying, “Can I have my pill?” They called them their arithmetic pills. “Can I have my arithmetic pill?” Can you believe this?
- We have herbals and nutraceuticals and nootropics and homeopathics and dietary supplements. No rigid, placebo-controlled, scientific study has ever shown a useful and statistically valid benefit from any such agent.
- You want a definition of ADHD? It is a running away from boredom. That is all ADHD is. It’s the running away from boredom.
- It is time to quit apologizing for stimulants.
- With either stimulant of the two main kinds, you can get 85% of properly diagnosed ADHD patients to a really good place, and that leaves you 15% of people that you haven’t treated. So, then you change the drug. And since the other drug will get 85% of people, there’s very few people that fall in that one or two percent gap that’s not included in both of those. And a lot of times those are the ones that are erroneously diagnosed or have a major other problem that you have overlooked.
