Channel 4 has released the controversial documentary ‘The Great ADHD Myth’, presented by NHS Psychiatrist, Daily Mail columnist and author Max Pemberton. The programme questions the growing ADHD industry and whether commercial interests are influencing diagnosis and treatment. A former president of the Royal College of Psychiatrists claims: “The industry around ADHD is about making money at the cost of the misery of others.”

Joining guest host Clare McKenna to discuss is Consultant Psychiatrist with ADHD Ireland, Dr Michele Hill, Jon Slattery, Producer and Presenter from Trilogy Media and Chartered Psychologist Karen Beckett.
