ou colérique? Comme des milliers d'autres jeunes, il pourrait recevoir un diagnostic de trouble déficitaire de l'attention avec ou sans hyperactivité (TDAH) et se voir prescrire un psychostimulant tel le Ritalin. Mais ces comportements sont-ils nécessairement les symptômes d'une "maladie" appelée TDAH? Quelle est la validité de ces diagnostics quand on sait que plus de la moitié d'entre eux sont ultérieurement retirés par un centre spécialisé? Poursuivant son travail sur le pouvoir d'influence de l'industrie pharmaceutique, J.-Claude St-Onge se penche cette fois-ci sur le phénomène du TDAH, qui a littéralement explosé depuis une trentaine d'années. Or, il s'agit d'un diagnostic hautement controversé: les critères pour l'identifier manquent de scientificité et il n'existe aucune preuve que ces symptômes soient le résultat d'un déséquilibre chimique du cerveau. Quant aux médicaments, à long terme, ils ne font aucune différence sur les résultats scolaires et les comportements des enfants. Pire, ils peuvent même aggraver leurs symptômes.
