“ADHD”

Living as we do amidst a culture and time dominated by smartphones and social media, it is no surprise to a psychoanalyst-writer like Patrick Landman that we’ve observed a resurgence of alleged “ADHD” afflicting everyone from grade-schoolers to chief executives.  Yet there is still a widespread understanding of ADHD as a neurobiological phenomenon rather than a social symptom.  Working between the two, my practice moves with patients towards the subjective and existential questions of time and desire raised by ADHD.
