I think we are all on a spectrum of sorts for almost all disorders. We are a pill society and want to cure all our ills with medicine. I completely believe that medication is a good thing, but it can be overused.

Yes, it is over diagnosed, but for those that have a high degree of ADD, or any disorder, medication can be a godsend.

Some of the great artists of the world had mental disorders and we cherish many of their works. Yes, creative people can benefit from many "disorders" - or perhaps, just perhaps, our ideas of normal are very skewed.
