Judging from the reaction to this... a lot of people care about ADHD diagnosis being represented fairly and accurately
It's almost like it's an issue you really shouldn't casually exploit and misrepresent for clicks, or something. Who knew?

For the record, I don't (as far as I or anyone else knows) have ADHD

Until then, 'eff off.

So yeah, I'm just VERY wary that this is a more complex, modern iteration of the old 'Depression isn't real, it's just people attention seeking!' stance, which was very common in the mainstream less than 20 years ago.
It was bollocks then, it's bollocks now
