ADHD diagnosis or your money back! Yep, Sweden's Government to look into private clinics offering quick ADHD diagnos - of course, nothing to see here!

"There is a structure here that in practice means that you sell a diagnosis for a fee," said Minister of Health and Social Affairs Jakob Forssmed (KD) at a press conference.

Det finns en struktur här som i praktiken innebär att man säljer diagnos mot betalning, säger socialminister Jakob Forssmed (KD) på en pressträff.

So is this something were you pay to get medical confirmation of a disability? Is an ADHD diagnosis grounds for some kind of government payment? In US I could see multiple bizarre benefits, one being you could get easy( easier!!)access to Adderall which is popular for " off label " uses

And the prize for biggest idiot (at least of the 2024 season) goes to... this guy:

Dansk U23-rytter får dopingdom

Christian Kornum testede i forbindelse med U23-DM i fjor positiv for stoffet methylphenidat og har fået to års udelukkelse

www.feltet.dk

To sum up:
He tested positive for methylphenidat at the U23 Danish (road) Championships last year.
The day before the race he was writing a study report with some classmates, two of those have ADHD, so they started talking about how Ritalin is frequently used as a 'study drug'. One of his classmates offered to let him try one of her pills, he knew he had a race the next day, but not that Ritalin is on the forbidden list.

Might just be me, but I think generally taking someone else's - even if they offer it - medication to "test how it works as a study drug" is rather stupid; even if you're not doing any sort of sport competition the next day...

You know how many people abuse that one to study better, even if they don't have ADHD?

He might be dumb, but at least the guy is genuine "old school"...Ritalin was the popular one back in the pro fields in the '70's. Guys took it as a suppository during the race and it wouldn't show up in the test. No idea how that would work though, LOL.
