Heard this woman on radio diminishing the diagnosis, along with saying does not exist in adults, and it has made me SO ANGRY. And she is getting huge media coverage.

The Guardian · The Age of Diagnosis by Suzanne O’Sullivan review – do no harmBy Adam Rutherford

@niamhgarvey The walloper here is the author of the article. He must have had his head up his arse when he was a teenager, because ADD & ADHD were definitely around then. A very self-absorbed prat. Worse than RFKJr (who at least has drugs and a brain worm to excuse his stupidity), Rutherford rolls out the red carpet for his now very favourite author, who obviously has endorsed his every mistaken belief in his own infallibility.
It made for some nauseating reading. Right on cue, as we near Autistic Acceptance Month.
We Autistics must scare the 💩 out of NTs😉 @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd

@Tooden @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd I know! So blind to the lived experience of adhd or neurodivergence.
