I mean difficult as in the following scenario, which plays itself in classrooms from the time I was 14 until right now:
My belief on this is that while the symptoms are real its not a 'disorder'. Its pretty typical for males and based on the very large percentage, all most all male, with this 'disorder' either we as a species are totally fucked up or some people are a bit trigger happy in deciding whats an illness.

I manged to get a couple of advanced degrees with this 'disorder' and never took a drug for it.
