    Right?? I don’t understand why every single person nowadays supposedly has autism and ADHD. If everyone has autism and/or ADHD now, then does anyone really have it?

    Imo, it doesn’t really make sense to turn what are normal human experiences suddenly into disorders now because it’s trendy. If it significantly impairs functioning to the point of things like failing out of school or the inability to hold down a job, then it makes sense to discuss it. Otherwise, I don’t get why it’s so trendy to pathologize common experiences/traits.
