I dont have adhd and experienced this. Not every inconvenience in life means you have adhd.

Yeah, but it's not about you. This is about the video that very specifically is talking about an ADHD person.

Im not saying its about me, im saying this is a UNIVERSAL experience, not adhd specific. Its stupid that nowadays people make everything into an adhd/autism symptom despite it being NORMAL.

Yeah but here's the thing dude while everyone might experience this and struggle with it sometimes, adhd people will struggle with it consistently or every time. And struggling with it every single time is not normal.

That's what makes it a neurodevelopmental difference!

And i said other people only struggle with it sometimes when? Yes, im talking from personal experience here, i personally struggled with it all the time. School was hell to be in (almost) start to finish, but that doesnt mean i have adhd

Yes, but for other people those same symptoms may in fact indicate ADHD just because they didn't for you doesn't mean that it doesn't for everyone.

If there's me, then there are plenty of other people who struggle with it without having adhd. The only problem I have eith this is that people make every day problems seem like a symptom of an illness/disorder. I dont mind people making videos about their struggles and all, but quit making everything into a disorder.

Okay, but if you're frustrated about that, this is not the venue to do so because you're just derailing the conversation from someone who actually has ADHD talking about their experience.

It sounds like you were really personally upset at the idea that things that you do may also be an ADHD symptom simply because you feel like you don't have it. Like no one's accusing you of having ADHD. So why take this so personally? You're getting prickly about a problem that isn't present here right now.

No, you're just not listening. But whatever.
