One example of a malicious explanation would be: people are lying about having a disability to get some sort of benefits they don’t need, likely at the expense of someone who does need those benefits.

What they get is amphetamines, legally.

38% of stanford kids taking or selling drugs, legally, because they are rich kids: and the poor kids get jail time for buying it off them.

Go USA.

Taking the drugs legally, maybe; it is very much illegal to sell the kind of amphetamines used to treat ADHD. Ritalin, for instance, is a schedule II drug, and it is a felony to sell without a prescription.

There are non-stimulant ADHD medications. Maybe they should try going on Intuniv instead.

(That one reduces anxiety a lot, which would be good for students, but it also kinda kills your sex drive.)
