ADHD History
The history of ADHD starts early..
The general idea out there is that ADD and ADHD are caused by social problems. Very often, people hear their family members or neighbours telling them that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is caused by: video games, TV, music videos, single parent families, parents who work too much, computers, inexperienced teachers, etc.. and that's just bull.

A recent survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of the newly-formed Coalition to Prevent Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Medication Misuse (CPAMM) finds that college students’ perceptions and attitudes towards the misuse, abuse and diversion of ADHD prescription stimulants are complex. The findings paint a portrait of students who recognize the risks of misuse, but understand why some students may choose to misuse, given the academic pressures in today’s college environment. CPAMM intends to use the findings to inform and develop educational campaigns to help prevent nonmedical use of ADHD prescription stimulants. The survey was conducted online between May 15 and June 11, 2014 among 2,056 US college students (full-time, 91%, part-time, 9%), defined as adults aged 18 to 24 enrolled and seeking a degree at a 4-year college or university and attending at least some in-person classes.1

A fainting goat is a breed of domestic goat whose external muscles freeze for roughly 10 seconds when the goat is
startled. Though painless, this generally results in the animal collapsing on its side. The characteristic is
caused by a hereditary genetic disorder called myotonia congenita. Older goats sometimes learn to lean against
something to prevent their falling over, and often they continue to run about in an awkward, stiff-legged shuffle.

I managed to complete one more song and video in record time. This is the kind of music that I wanted to eventually upload.
