Main Chapters:

Rates of diagnosing ADHD, and prescribing stimulants are increasing. At the same time, we are still missing many cases of adult ADHD, particularly inattentive type, in women, and among the elderly. Is diagnosing ADHD really that difficult?

- Is there more to diagnosing ADHD than running through the checklist of 9 inattentive and 9 impulsive/hyperactive symptoms?

- What are the conditions that can be confused with ADHD?

- Are there any ways to detect when someone is faking ADHD?

- Is it really impossible to perform a valid evaluation via telehealth sessions?
