I thought the current understanding is, that there is not the ADHD, but that it is a range of different symptoms and problems.
Yep.. which is the challenge. The only word we have is ADHD, but really it's so much more complex.
Whoa I didn't know this! So it's another spectrum-type thing? That makes alot of sense
Considering everything we know about it now, it should really be called Executive Function Disorder. Calling it Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder really does a disservice to those that have it.
Also, ADHD, Autism, and BPD all share symptoms and can be difficult to differentiate.
