And I'm saying situational instead of environmental because I think environmental gets confusing, but like situation or environment that you're in.

I just kept wanting to throw the book across the room because it's essentially like the conditions we live in compound symptoms in a way that... is leading to like ADHD as a diagnosis is when it's impairing your life. And I think that a lot of people have lived with ADHD for a really long time, but it didn't impair their lives. Right.
