At the end of the day what difference does labelling yourself as neurodivergent actually make? Some people have a harder time in life than others and that's unfortunate but you still got to live life the same as others and no one should give you a free pass.

Obviously this doesn't apply to people who have had a legit diagnosis from a medical professional. I'm talking about people who self diagnose.

A "legit" diagnosis is not required for people to have mental disorders. Each person is the expert on what they experience.

All a diagnosis does is put a "official" name on it and maybe get treatment if you're lucky enough to afford it / have a generous medical system near you that does financial assistance programs.
