          It’s kind of astonishing that you so closely grasp the point and then fling it as far away as possible.

          We are the ones who draw the boxes around biology and decide that “five times a week is normal but six is not.”

          So while I agree that frequency can point to ADHD, my SO experiences this particular phenomenon about as much as I do, and I have high confidence that they do not have ADHD. Sometimes, it’s just a common human experience.

          Then how do you have any right speaking on behalf of so many other people who do have ADHD when you’re basing this anecdotally?

          Astounding you’ll say “lost in your sentiment”, say ADHD is a spectrum, and then flatly say this cannot fall within it.

      I dunno bro/broette — you should talk to the other people in your life about how often they experience the last few on your list. You may find you’re one of us.

      I describe ADHD as a purely executive disorder that harms your progress/goals. Which is why I agree with your statement as all those claims don’t really harm an overarching goal.

      People with ADHD do things like frequently forget their driver’s license or frequently forgetting their office key card. It affects their day to day lives in more noticeable ways than just “whoops I put my thing in the pile of clothes, now ive lost it”

          Typical whinefest of “UM ACTUALLY THIS ISN’T ADHD SPECIFIC”. Bit more preachy than most given it was multiple paragraphs long.

      Whether it’s ADHD or chronic fatigue, the same stims will fix it.

      That may be bad because if the treatment works, people assume the diagnosis is correct.
