In reference to the awful /r/ADHD subreddit which is the most anti-ADHD place online I have ever seen I would like to know if this place will follow their horrible example or actually allow neurodivergent people with ADHD to consider it a home?

Based on this from the sidebar it seems positive and I look forward to interacting with you all.

Which is especially weird considering the recent news regarding private ADHD clinics and whether it's too easy to get a diagnosis privately in the UK. Similarly I have a diagnosis for ASD from Finland but have had a therapist say she didn't think I was autistic, so if I can't then discuss that in a very large and popular subreddit where should I go. It all seems rather silly.
