The dangerous side of counseling

I try really hard not to 'self-diagnose' myself, and I can't say that I always succeed with success (thanks mistah prez). However, somewhere I've never gone is "oh, I must have ADHD"...and then I was reading the diagnostic criteria; damned if I didn't meet ever single requirement. No folks, this doesn't mean I'm going to run out and get medication...but perhaps a book (that I won't ever read) on how to best develop coping strategies to live a normal life. Pah! Who needs normal! We live in the Oprah Winfrey culture that requires everyone to have a Diagnosis. Give me my damn merit badge!!!
