Abstract: | Why is it that of all the mental diseases on record we are so preoccupied with those occurring at the beginning and at the end of life? The Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and dementia have both attracted the attention of the medical profession and the wider public only comparatively late in history. Many a physician has even dared to claim that these disorders were not discovered but as it were invented in the past century. Wie kommt es, dass uns von allen psychischen Erkrankungen seit Jahren diejenigen am meisten beschäftigen, die den Lebensanfang und das Lebensende betreffen? Die Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit- und Hyperaktivitätsstörung (ADHS) und die Demenzerkrankungen haben miteinander gemeinsam, dass sie erst relativ spät ins Rampenlicht von Medizin und Öffentlichkeit gerückt sind. Manch ein Psychiater hat sich sogar zu der Behauptung verstiegen, dass sie nicht im vergangenen Jahrhundert entdeckt, sondern quasi erfunden wurden. |
