I have ADHD, there's nothing cute or great about it, it really sucks to have this disability, I have lost countless opportunities and had to work 10x as hard to achieve the same as everyone else because of it.
I'm not less valuable as a person because of it of course, but I would gladly return my "gift" if that was possible.
