The only commonly tolerated, perhaps even celebrated, form of neurodiversity is asymptomatic depression.
- dijit 4y agoI think people are quite happy to accept ADHD on public social media, as sufferers of ADHD are more likely to engage with an online community sporadically while being unable to concentrate on other things. Especially if they start getting a dopamine reward for engaging.
- peppermint_gum 4y agoI should have said asymptomatic disorders in general. It's okay to say that you suffer from ADHD, people will support you. But co-workers and especially bosses tend not to appreciate the issues that come with it, such as procrastination, inability to meet deadlines, lack of focus etc.
