Channel 4's new documentary, 'The Great ADHD Myth?', has sparked controversy and criticism for its skeptical approach towards ADHD as a genuine neurodevelopmental disorder. The documentary, presented by Dr. Max Pemberton, explores whether ADHD is a social construct or a genuine medical condition. It has been accused of being one-sided, irresponsible, and potentially harmful to people with ADHD. The show has received numerous complaints, with some viewers feeling sad and invalidated, while others found it thought-provoking. ADHD UK, a charity, has encouraged viewers to complain to Ofcom about the documentary.
