I have ADHD and I study CogSci so this is a very personal topic to me. ADHD doesn't ever go away, you are correct, but it also can come in extremely varying sets of symptoms. The article suggests that through medication and therapy the synaptic pathways that have developed along the ADHD rule set can be compensated for, and while those original ADHD pathways never truly go away, they can be ignored to the point that the new pathways entirely make up for them. Hence, symptom amelioration. Hope that helps!
