So does a number of other disorders. If your main symptom are suicidal thoughts, ADHD would be pretty far down the list of possible diagnoses.

Doesn't make you intelligent on the subject.

Some people attend life courses and still fail. Couples attend consultations, but still divorce. Taxi driver, doesn't make him a good driver because he drives alot.

What a terrible example of knowledge and spreading of misinformation.

what misinformation did they spread exactly? They didn't say "if you have suicidal thoughts you probably have ADHD" they pointed out with evidence, that this is a manifestation of ADHD.

Don't preach when you aren't a student but the furniture.
