    The drug part is interesting. I guess you really can’t just take the easy route of diagnosis…
    As for the ADHD respresentation, I blame the discord between nts from few people and charities attempting to represent ADHD and the out-of-touchness of nts for attempting to turn adhd into a “quirky superpower disorder” while it is actually a near-crippling disablity. I can see the good in ADHD, but I classified those under something different, which I dubbed the “extended focus abilities” and those most likely happen, due to the brain having to compansate for the lack of pfc through occipital focus and an overall outside -> inside processing (which might be one of the reasons why ADHD “looks” like autism if you ask me). and of course, adhd can be regarded as something “good” when the hyperfocus is actually rather benefitial (An example is Dream whom most likely hyperfocuses on Minecraft for example, so obv…).
