      I do agree. Are my words somehow offensive or dismissive?

        Thanks for asking. Not offensive to me personally just felt like it didn’t quite capture what what’s going on in my view.

            Same. Autism was only for the most extreme cases as far as I knew and ADHD wasn’t diagnosed often. I didn’t get diagnosed until I was 40.

                Absolutely. Between therapy and meds it has definitely helped me in pretty much every area of my life. It’s still challenging but less so.

                  I’m so happy you got treatment that works for you; in a just society, everyone could.

                    Too true. Healthcare including mental health care is a right. Nobody should suffer because they lack funds.
