Completely agree. People with ADHD are simply incompatible with many facets of mormal life.

Take school for example. If someone doesn't fit into the mass education model, they say they have attention deficit. That same person might then go home and hyperfocus on computer programming for 12 hours straight like a machine. It makes no sense.

The mass education model where hundreds of people sit on a chair listening to lectures for hours on end just isn't right for people with ADHD. Medications are just there to help cope with an imperfect reality which refuses to change for our sake.
