Couple that with disengaged parents and educators and you have another trillion dollar grab of American wealth by our medical machine. There simply is no other reason either physically, environmentally or biologically for this supposed dramatic increase.

Just take a stroll around on Reddit and you’ll be hard pressed to find someone under 30 not claiming to have depression, anxiety and either autism or adhd, some times both. Yes, all those are real and people do have them but the amount of self diagnosis for them are off the charts. It’s almost a badge of honor now to be “neurospicy”.
