I have been dodging the thread with the "mild ADHD" guy running the goal posts all over the globe, but I just stumbled across this one and I am begging someone to tell me where we sign up for the cleaners & personal carers that apparently comes automatically with a diagnosis 😭

if there's one thing we know people love to do, it's give people with ADHD too much support automatically. lolol

I have got "actually couldn't hold down a grown-up office job" level ADHD. it's pretty severe. it impacts my life in various ways for which I have basically never received support. and I will fucking clothesline anyone who tries to gatekeep care & support to people they think are less impacted

as someone with adhd who relied on anxiety to get through high school until that system broke down catrosphically in college, to this day I still don’t have a bachelor’s and have not ever truly recovered fron burnout: the “functioning” ones are usually a few bad gos from total system collapse.

I failed out of 4 (i think) and took 4 years to finish my associates LMao. Thankfully I decided to do a coding bootcamp right during the tech hiring boom and got into my industry without a 4 year degree. Probably should have just gone into the trades but it was never on my radar.
