ADHD I have to apologise to daily mail readers that I have a supposedly over diagnosed condition, and agree just to get along. I have to justify my mistakes as not ADHD, sometimes people make mistakes. I have have to tell people that I did take my tablets, and that they're being an arsehole and I am allowed to be annoyed with you. I have had enough of people presuming I am ADHD so I must be a hyperactive child. I have ADHD so I am unintelligent. I have positives and negatives. I'm just wired differently and I am not an ADHD stereotype. I am not only ADHD. I have a diagnosis. I have a prescription, I do not have to justify anything to you, I am not conspicuous, ADHD alone does not mean I can be interrogated- I hate pigs. I am isolated from friends I was diagnosed late. I have lots of energy so morning runs yes please. I am tired of dating and being judged. I am tired of being misunderstood but not ADHD I can focus for days. I understand I have ADHD but they don't even understand how rude they are?

Just because someone has ADHD doesnt make them intelligent?

The intelligence thing can go either way depending on who you're talking to. Some people only see that you mess up, so think you're stupid, others see that you're intelligent, so can't/won't understand that you have trouble with things that for them are simple and basic. The worst people for pig ignorant attitudes have got to be ATOS and other ESA assessors though. The tablets thing really pissed me off the most, "Well, you're taking the tablets for it now, so there's nothing wrong with you any more." Yet you know damned well that if you tell them that actually they don't help, they will say well you can't have ADHD then can you?"
