      ADHD is considered a disability (in the US) under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Which is why a person with an ADHD diagnosis is allowed to ask for reasonable accommodations.

      The more you know.

        Bonus reply; I would know. I work for the Department of Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities caring for disabled adults. Knowing the ADA is actually my bread and butter.

        But go off on why it’s not a disability.

          How about instead of your obvious personal problems with this very real disability that I, and others, suffer from, why don’t you provide me with a scientific paper? A peer-reviewed study? Literally anything other than stating your feeling as fact?

          I tell ya what. Tell me what country you’re in and I’ll provide evidence that it’s considered a disability there.
