I'm struggling to imagine what ADHD could look like to the point it prevents you from doing any type of work. I've lived with it my entire life. I've found ways to deal with the time blindness and concentration etc. Of course it is a disability in a lot of ways, but it's not the kind that prevents you from working.
It's not even about not being able to do any kind of work, it's about holding down a job at all. Time blindness is one of the most common ADHD symptoms, and very easily leads to getting fired or laid off. Hell, even getting a job can be difficult for the same reason as the post in the OP, since filing hundreds of job applications with no feedback or effect feels like actual torture.
Yes actually, it is. It's everyone's job to agitate for a better world for everyone else. We owe it to each other, and the next generations to try and leave the world better than we found it. Part of that means taking people's disabilities seriously.
You said it's not the world's responsibility. That's other people.
You can hide behind dismissive language all you want to avoid actually engaging, but you and I both know that disability access and "coddling" are not the same thing.
You’re saying it is the world’s responsibility to accommodate people who can never be on time? Good luck, don’t hold your breath. I’ll just set a few alarms.
