tiktok makes me so embarrassed to tell people i have adhd
#actual adhd not#'i self diagnosed w adhd after destroying my attention span w tiktok and getting all my info from tiktoks w erroneous info and zero nuance'#it's embarrassing. a short attention span is only a tiny fraction of what adhd actually is#it really needs to be renamed to efdd (executive functioning deficit disorder)#and it has to have a serious negative impact on your life in concrete ways that aren't normal for most people! independent of other factors#everyone has 'symptoms' to some extent. how badly they affect your life is what decides whether those symptoms reach the lvl of a disorder#and tiktoks never include that very important nuance#god we went from being underdiagnosed several years ago to the completely opposite direction#i feel even worse for people with did and tic disorders. tiktok has made those into even more of a joke than adhd#it sucks#they romanticize disorders even worse than tumblr did 10 years ago!#ok rant over
