Absolutely, categorically wrong. There's plenty of literature on the subject, should you wish to correct your assumptions.
For those with serious symptoms, medication can help make it possible to use coping strategies. It doesn't make it easier, just possible.
To put it another way we'll never be neurotypical (normal), and if that's your expectation for someone with ADHD, that's not our problem.

- falcolas 2y agoCongratulations on having ADHD at a level where your coping mechanisms work (and appear to work pretty well). Not everyone is so lucky. Or to put it another way, a broken toe and a broken femur are both categorized as broken bones, but one is much more serious and has complications the other does not.
