Among the many debates and questions that exist about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is the question about whether or not its symptoms can begin in adolescence or even adulthood. With a few exceptions, like in cases of traumatic brain injury, the behaviors and thought patterns of ADHD are generally thought to be evident fairly early in childhood. Indeed, the official diagnosis of ADHD in DSM-5 requires that there be symptoms present in multiple setting before the age of 12. Despite these rules, many psychiatrists and other professionals who treat ADHD are seeing a noticeable rise in individuals who didn’t read the DSM and are seeking an evaluation for ADHD for symptoms that did not start until later in life.

While nearly anything, including human hands, may be used to kill, the gun is created for the specific purpose of killing a living creature.
Gun-love can be akin to non-chemical addictions like gambling or hoarding, either of which can have devastating effects, mainly economic, but murder, suicide, accidental death, and mass shootings result only from guns.
The definition of “mass shootings” varies, but is generally defined by four or more deaths in one location by a lone gunman or in a few cases. Although each of these mass killings is idiosyncratic, they often share many features, including but not limited to the most obvious, which bears repeating – their use of guns.

The combined financial impact of medical cost and productivity loss makes mental illness one of the most costly conditions among U.S. workers and a leading cause of disability absence. Employers often invest in services like an employee assistance program with the assumption that, if a quality resource is available, employees will use the resource.
