No, who claimed that? I said this in response to you saying people will do anything to make themselves feel better.

If it was very easy to overcome, everyone would do it. It's simple to overcome, not easy.

If a vicious cycle was easy to get out of, it wouldn't be called a vicious cycle, it'd be called a cycle of happiness.

There are many factors that can contribute to a person's behaviour, it's never as simple "stop being lazy". This study shows that for some, their ADD can significantly contribute.
