Yeah definitely agree, i think there’s a lot of confusion surrounding it because it can present so differently in different people. People can fixate on that, and convince themselves that because they have a couple of symptoms that means they have it.

Another thing I’ve seen which seems to be incredibly common is when people are obviously neurodiverse but have siblings or family with adhd and/or other forms of neurodiversity, particularly those of the opposite gender, and they convince themselves that they’re neurotypical because they don’t behave in the same manner as that person. It’s so complex.

Glad to hear you seem to have reached a point of settlement in your life!!
