Link"Omg, I mess with my hands when I'm bored!! Ig I have ADHD!! TikTok said it!!😌😆😘🤪🥴"
Do actual research and then get diagnosed. Just doing research doesn't diagnose you. A lot of the shit these people are diagnosing themselves is something they've only seen a romanticized version of.
"OMG LOOK AT YOUR CUTE LITTLE TICK WHERE YOU SAY BOOP!!! I WANT TOURETTETS. I HAVE IT NOW!"
no.
"OMG IM SOOOO MESSY IG I HAVE ADHD!!"
no.
"OMG I LIKE ORGANIZING IG I HAVE OCD!!"
no.
like shut the **** up.

Linkyes, it costs money to get diagnosed. that's good. they have to run actual tests to see if you have a condition, not just look at you. plus, you're taking their time so there's a labor bill. ****ing cry about it on twitter, I don't care. yes, it costs money. save money.
i have a friend who actually has it, they have to be medicated for it, it’s not cool to have and it pisses me off when people are thrilled about it? i don’t know but i know it’s terrible and not fun at all
Yeah it's stupid that people think their so cool or something because they decide that they have it, I was actually diagnosed with ADHD at a young age and it sucks, my friend says "I don't have ADHD but I'm always getting distracted" then laugh about it. She doesn't realize how annoying that is.
you're overlooking a ton of factors that lead as to reasons people can't get diagnosed
I can speak first-hand on the not affording bit of this, though it may get fairly personal
theres a strong likelyhood I have ADHD that hasn't gone diagnosed; my mom has ADHD and I have a lot of the symptoms of it
but we haven't had money to get me diagnosed and it isn't as easy as "saving up" because there's several other bills to pay
not to mention once you save an amount of money, (like in my situation) rent will raise, so it only ****s you over more in the end
and theres still no guarantee of a diagnoses since there's factual statistics to prove minorities get diagnosed less than cis/white/men
