I wouldn't go as far as to say ADD or ADHD are completely "made up." I've definitely seen cases where prescriptions are necessary. I will agree that those medications (Ritalin, Adderall, Concerta, etc.) are over-prescribed. In fact, one of my pharmacist friends has already said that she's going to put her 5 year-old on Ritalin during high-school, just to improve her chances of getting into a good college. I asked if her daughter medically needed it, and the short version of the answer was "no." That blew my fucking mind.

On a side note, I recently discovered that Freudian slips are possible when typing. I was waiting on this hot, HOT mommy at work, took her kid's Rx, walked over to the computer terminal to type it in, and proceeded to unwittingly type "Titalin."
