The image features a social media post from the account “authenticallyadhd,” discussing perspectives on ADHD and neurodiversity. The mood is reflective and assertive, emphasizing a rejection of traditional views on ADHD.
Text in image: I completely reject the idea that I am broken or disordered because the DSM pathologized the way my brain works because it doesn’t conveniently fit into capitalistic and neuromormative expectations.
Is adhd disabling? Of course, and for some more than others. I’m not trying to take that away.
But I wholeheartedly believe the problem is that we expect every human to function, think & act a certain way rather than getting curious about how to build a world that supports neurodiversity.
