While it's a lovely notion that maybe one day we might live in a world that doesn't otherize and pathologize the way the minds of neurodivergent people function. Or that maybe one day the whole of society might not be organized around the convenience and function of neurotypical people and I would love for either of those would either of those to be the case. The fact of the matter is that this is not the world we currently live in. So if someone with ADHD or Autism wanted support from this society in the form of say medication, or therapy, then in most cases they would need to still engage with that system that pathologizes the way their minds work and acquire a diagnosis.

So what good does it do to come into a conversation about the flaws in that diagnostic process and essentially just say "Well, maybe it shouldn't be like that." as if anyone here is in any position to just wave a magic wand and change the diagnostic criteria in the next edition of the DSM?
