Why do they call it ADHD, when in reality the person just needs to shut up?!


Question: Why do they call it ADHD, when in reality the person just needs to shut up!?
That's not to say that there aren't people who have a legitimate diagnosis!. It's just seems like anytime you call someone out on their gossippy, loud, non-stop drama and chatter, then they get all weepy and say, "I have ADHD"!.

Same goes for Asperger's and being Bi-polar!. There are legitimate diagnoses, and then there are people who are just jerks and need to grow up!.

Why do so many obnoxious people get away with a false diagnosis, instead of being forced to grow up and take responsibility for their actions!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

that other answer by the person with the degree, i would not want you for my freaking counselor!. gah!.!.!.!.i agree with you 100% !. people do use those thing for an excuse for their behavior and are taught to do it from childhood!. i had an incident with my daughter whenever she was in kindergarten with this kid always bothering the piss out of her!. i went to the principal and her excuse for not taking action was that "he was limited"!.; so that gives him permission to aggravate the hell out of another kid and distract them all day long!? the rest of his life usually!. as you said if they have a dx (diagnosis) (im in public health also) well, utilize medication and therapy and quit depending on your illness as an excuse and grow the crap up!. everyone has problems!. i am broke, so can i go rob a bank and cry about it!? i just don't think that would go over too well, do you!?!?!? i think they get away with it because people whose JOB it is to do those things are too busy answering questions on yahoo all day long!. so now, we agree and have a nice day and stay away from people with excuses for their behavior!. they should take responsibility!. you are absolutely right!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The way I see it is if a person is getting around faking Bi-polar or Aspergers well enough that they get diagnosed by a qualified psychiatrist, there must be something mentally wrong to begin with! Why would anyone in their right mind want to be diagnosed with either of these conditions!? Are you a qualified psychiatrist!? If not then what qualifies you to rightfully state that someone has been misdiagnosed!? Not only do you infer you are qualified to make this claim but also to re-diagnose these (misdiagnosed) people wth an inability to take responsibility for their actions!? Bi-Polar stems from a serious imbalance in the brain which causes the person to live their life at the extreme ends of the mood spectrum!. For example they are either feeling extremely high (manic) or depressed (extremely)!. Its not caused from an inability to grow up!. Its a genuinely debilitating condition and shouldn't be underestimated!. With all due respect unless you are a psychiatrist and can make these claims with professional justification, you may be the one with some growing up to do!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Because they cannot!. I accept that some folks have glossolalia, and just continue to speak constantly in a sort of flight of ideas pattern!. But AADD is actually the inability to focus the necessary energy from which a successful result will manifest!.Personally, I find it tiring to try to listen to a compulsive speaker!. Listening requires energy, and I choose to use my energy for more productive activities!. So, suggestion;If you know a person who displays compulsive talking is going to be present, you have two choices!. tell this person that if they cannot manage their need to hear their own voice to leave, or you can!.
I am not long on patience!. and I have, in the past,done just that!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You never really know what's going on with other people, maybe they really do have problems if they are acting that way!. Most people are not fundamentally bad, but if they are acting nasty, gossiping, or seeking attention they might be fundamentally unhappy, or insecure!. Most people don't act like that just to upset other people or make a spectacle of themselves!. They might be trying to explain this by attaching a diagnosis or label to it - otherwise healthy individuals don't do that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Unless you have a degree in Counseling, Mental Health, or are a licensed social worker who the hell are you to say if people have a legitimate illness or not!. WFT did someone piss you off today to ask such a foolish question!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I totally agree with you!. Pharmacuetical companies make up these disorders to make more money!. Everybody is falling for it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
