How do you guys cope with it when people tell you that ADHD isn’t real or isn’t that big of a deal? Like, I know they’re wrong and all. It’s been really impairing for me and I have a lot of evidence to prove it. That said, I always let it get to me too much when someone doubts that. I wish I didn’t care what other people thought, but I just do. How do you guys cope with it and care less about what other people think?

      Yeah, they just expect you to grow out of it when you get older, they treat it as if its some type of phases

      Ok, now this hits close to home. I’ve been told by a few people that ADHD isn’t a real issue as well… but I don’t really have a specific way of coping with it except just ignoring those people, and thinking that they are uninformed/ignorant. It hurts the most though when it’s someone close to you that doesn’t believe in ADHD. I’d say this issue is one we all experienced at one point or another.
