I hate it when people say “[person] is ADHD”. A person is not a disease. If someone has cancer, do you say “my aunt is cancer”? Weird and insulting.

Funny how this works but yet I got diagnosed as an adult THEN my brother got diagnosed haha. We do everything backwards.

ADHD manifests differently in girls and they’re usually able to mask it more.

Able to, forced to, I mean what’s the difference amirite? This coming from a dude who has often felt like people treat me worse for it but has seen just how nasty people can get with women for the same thing.

IMO everyone is forced to, but some are able to do it while others a can no matter how hard they try. I’m definitely in the second category.

I’m not sure to what extent it’s actually manifesting differently or being masked better than institutional bias against the idea of women having ADHD - diagnoses are about 3x more rare for women…
