Dave it also depends on your geno-gram. If you are predisposed to the illness there is a better chance you can get it. It has been proven beyond doubt that mental ilness is hereditary so knowing your background helps a lot. There is a problem with over diognosis especially with ADHD and ADD, that is why edjucation is so important. Just because people are different doesn't mean they are suffering from a mental illness. That is also why people should work on managing the meds they take and seeing the warning signs of dissabling behaviors so they can go off meds at some point.
