> underdiagnosed

I have ADHD. My son has it even worse than I do. My experience says the opposite is true: it's so overdiagnosed that people get used to seeing the label applied to people who are really just energetic and flighty and then they don't have a clue how to deal with the real deal. (ProTip: The normal things that motivate people don't work for ADHD!)

(Also, +1 neuroatypical NB hat *waves* I didn't know we had a club.)
