How many of us will end up being diagnosed with ADHD?

The article discusses the prevalence of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and whether the number of people diagnosed with it will increase in the future. According to experts, the number of people with ADHD is likely to remain stable rather than increase significantly. While ADHD diagnoses have risen in recent decades, this is primarily due to improved awareness and better access to healthcare, rather than a true rise in the condition's prevalence. The article notes that ADHD is a well-recognized and treatable condition, and that the current diagnostic criteria are appropriate. It suggests that the stable prevalence of ADHD reflects the underlying neurological nature of the disorder, which is not influenced by societal or environmental factors. The article emphasizes the importance of providing appropriate support and treatment to individuals with ADHD, rather than focusing on potential changes in the number of diagnoses. It highlights the need for continued research and understanding to ensure effective management of this condition.
