Well, it's a disorder, it's right in the name.
If people "liked" it, they wouldn't be taking meds to help them function.
I'm not hating, just think we should take things for what they are
Edit: sorry, thought we were talking about ADHD
There are no meds for "autism", there are meds for health issues that autistic people are more likely to have, which autistic people shouldn't take if they don't have those health issues.
As for it being categorized as a disorder.
Would you have said "I'm not hating on homosexuals, just think we should take things for what they are" in 1952?
Not to mention meds to suppress expression of autism traits and behavioral therapies like ABA that make daily existence a constant effort. But hey, they make it less awkward for allistic people to share spaces with autistic people. Or god forbid, have them accept that some folks have different ways of engaging with the world.
I take medication for my ADHD, not my autism. My autism is a part of who I am. ADHD is just annoying.
I replied to this person with some links, maybe you should give them a look too..
