@psychicparrot42 It's these kind of things that when people start knowing about and it's talked about more around them, they start self-diagnosing "oh it's probably what I have", because it's "cool" to think that even the littlest of things you have is actually not your fault and you don't have to actually reflect on your behavior... 🙄
It's well known self-diagnose is always 100% correct anyway 🙄🤔

@psychicparrot42 other things that were watered down:
"I opened more than one browser tab and got sidetracked, oh I have ADHD!"

"I got anxious during a conversation, oh I'm autistic!"

It's like thinking that everyone that vomits is suddenly pregnant, just because that is a common symptom/side effect of pregnancy.

@psychicparrot42 people use it as a "cool kids club" tag nowadays, in order to justify irresponsible acts and inaction, but the truth it's not cool to have ADHD or be autistic. It's a fucking curse. It's a fucking nightmare to grow up autistic, it's life in hell be autistic adult (even if you grow with a good support network and mentorship like I had). It's not a cool kids free pass card. It's terrible actually. If I could I would want to be born without this shit (autism).
