I see a lot of people blaming tiktok and “brain rot” content for the increasing ADHD diagnoses, but I think its a matter of better detection, similar to how OCD and autism diagnosis have increased too.

Also as someone with ADHD, it feels like shit that it could be “my fault” or that I have brainrot.

    If everyone is disordered, then what’s normal anymore? How is that helpful?

    It is helpful to therapists and pharmacuetical drug manfucaturers.

    I’m not saying psychology and psychiatry are complete bullshit.

    I’m saying that if you can manufacture a problem, you can sell a solution.
