The land of ADHD

The murder of Emilie Meng

▸ The number of ADHD diagnoses in Sweden has increased sharply in recent years. On the list of the countries that prescribe the most ADHD drugs in the world, Sweden is at the top. At the same time, the queues for both bup and adult psychiatry are long, and according to the National Board of Health and Welfare, the diagnoses will continue to grow before the development levels off. Why does Sweden stand out when it comes to ADHD diagnoses? Are more and more people experiencing symptoms? Or has the limit for what constitutes a disability lowered?
