“Being late isn’t about bad time management, it’s about not developing a proper sense of time as a kid.” Gabor Maté explained this to Hasan Minhaj during their conversation.

I just listened to Gabor Maté on Steven Bartlett’s podcast and it genuinely made me rethink everything I thought I knew about ADHD. He said it plainly: No gene for ADHD has ever been found. Not one. What gets passed down isn’t the disorder itself — it’s sensitivity. Sensitive kids feel the environment more deeply. In a stressed home (and our society is making parents more stressed than ever), that sensitivity often turns into tuning out as a survival mechanism. That’s what gets labeled as ADHD. Recent stats for context: - In the US, ADHD diagnoses in children nearly doubled over the past 20 years — from ~6.1% in the late 1990s to 11.4% today (about 7 million kids aged 3–17). - Worldwide, prevalence in children is estimated at 5–7%. - In Europe, rates are generally lower but still significant, around 5–7% in many countries. The same child, raised in a calm, supportive environment, might become highly creative, empathetic, or a natural leader instead. We’ve been telling millions of kids (and adults) they have a “brain disease” when many are simply reacting to the stressed world we’ve built around them. This shifts the conversation from “what’s wrong with you” to “what happened to you?” It feels like a much more compassionate — and honest — way to look at it. Do you think many ADHD diagnoses today are more about environment and sensitivity than an innate “disorder”? Have you seen this play out in your own life or with people close to you?
