Why are people so willing, indeed anxious, to be diagnosed with ADHD?

One of the symptoms is poor impulse control. Media personalities who have recently been accused of behaving inappropriately have used ADHD as an excuse.

Strange that the poor impulse control only involves groping fit young people and not 50+ balding blokes with a beer belly and bad breath.

It’s also been used by defense lawyers to mitigate their clients offences, most recently the Stockport cunt whose poor impulse control led him to purchase a weapon on line, then take a taxi to a dance party attended by small children, and… well you know the rest. Poor impulse control my fucking arse!

I don’t know about you lot, but I was very anxious as a young person NOT to stand out, today it seems to be a badge of honour.

This is quite interesting and well worth a read, but for busy people I’ll summarise the salient points.

If you are “diagnosed” with ADHD, you can get PIP , even if you’re working, have savings or getting other benefits. The standard rate is £73.10pw, but 43% of claimants get the enhanced rate of £110.40. The highest increase, at 28%, in the number of claimants since 2020 to 2024 is London.

Standard.

Here’s an example.

Rail Forums.

What’s interesting about this is that the person in question was not some spotty, smelly teenager in a hoodie, but a 50 something man who really should have known better.

I rarely travel on public transport, but occasionally go into the cesspit that is our city centre. The number of people who conduct conversations on their mobiles, often on loudspeaker /hands free astounds me.
Do they think that there’s some kind of fucking soundproofing forcefield surrounding them, or do they simply don’t give a shit?

Is this a lack of self-awareness, or simply the first signs of a total breakdown in civilisation?

Better break out the woad and wolfskins folks.

The Beeb’s radio soap ‘The Archers’ seems to have been around for as long as I have, although I’ve never listened to a single episode of the ‘everyday story of country folk’.

I can’t say the same for a very old friend (I’ll call her Ann) who’s been a devoted follower of things down Ambridge way for donkey’s; that is until recently. When we met for coffee yesterday, she was raging at the show, declaring that she’s finished with it. So what’s pissed her off?

Well it turns out that a storyline has a long-standing character in the show, a b and b owner named Lynda Snell, fasting for Ramadan in support of her Muslim neighbours the Maliks. ‘I wouldn’t mind’ raged Ann, ‘but Lynda Snell is a domineering cow who’s all about herself, and imposing her outlook on others. She’d never be interested in a demonstration like this. It’s completely unrealistic as a story, daft in fact, and it’s really all about the BBC using yet another opportunity to ram its woke values down the listeners’ throats regardless’.

Now I can only go by what my friend says, but on the basis of this, it’s not hard to agree; it’s not as though Al-beebra’s not got form in this regard. Still, perhaps it’s not all bad. Perhaps this storyline’s paving the way for some gritty realism in the show in future, and we can await with excitement the honour killing in the Malik household, the revelation of a clandestine grooming gang operating out of The Bull, and a suicide attack on the milking shed.

Or…perhaps not. These plots just wouldn’t fit in with Al-beeb’s cringing, aching wokeness, would they?
