Oh, no. I think there are stereotypes in general about a lot of conditions. I was not saying you were indulging in them. Sorry that I gave you that impression.
The very label ADHD has a "is that really a problem? or just an excuse" stereotype it feels like. Plus with autism, I was reading a bunch of people on CNN chats say AWFUL stuff about Autistic people after the whole Adam Lanza thing.
It sucks to have a label, but sometimes you need a label for things to change.
