What if everything you thought you knew about psychiatric diagnoses—especially in children—was worth re-examining?

In this eye-opening episode of SIX Hats, Dr. Shami sits down with UK-based child psychiatrist, author, and critical thinker Dr. Sami Timimi. Together, they unravel the complexities and controversies behind modern psychiatric labels, with a particular focus on the ADHD diagnosis boom in children.

Dr. Timimi challenges the mainstream medical model and asks: What are we really diagnosing when a child struggles with attention or behavior? Is it an illness, or a reflection of stress, trauma, disconnection, and a rapidly changing world?
