I hate that ADD/ADHD is looked upon as such a disability. If people didn’t point it out to me all the time, I would forget I have it.

Same. Everyone thinks it’s just a quirk but I’m genuinely disabled by it

yeah everyone ignores the fact that it is literally a disorder and then treats the symptoms like moral failures 😃
