Brain connections are constantly changing. This is learning.
We'd expect the brain scan of someone who had never played piano to look different from a later scan after they learned to play piano.
So, a problem I have with this kind of article is that by concentrating on words like "disorder" and "remission", they kind of imply a passive response.
Learning to control yourself is an active process, and once you're at the level of the median person, do you have a disorder, at all?
