A high functioning 0erson with adhd is at higher risk of developing adhd related problems, just as thry are at a higher risk of developing its super powers.

Im a person with adhd, for me it has manifested largerly as a suoer power with little or no drawbacks. It is a large reason for my carereer success.

It is useful because if you are high functioni g, even through masking, then you do t have the disorder. By defi ition something is only a disorder when you are no longer high functioning.

It doesnt mean the personality trait isnt there, it just means it isnt manifesting in an unhealthy way in order to prevent you from functioning well.

A person who has episodes of OCD obviously has the tendency towards related personality traits. Just that in his healthier state they are not net negitives they are just perfectly normal and healthy parts of a personlity that he happens to have in common with others.

Cognitive disabilities are super powers in the right and healthy proportions. As a person diagnosed with ASD this has become quite evident. I gave specific examples of how. The whole point is calli g them cognitive disabilitiea is a bad take. They are personality traits that whwn they become too exagerated cause harm, but in healthy proportions are good.

Ths relative nature of social expectations is exactly how psychiatry is designed. Desieases are generalally ide tified by their manifestation when among the normal population.

One of the studies i helped work on shows, interestingly, how people who would qualify for an autism diagnosis based on their expiernce when living in the states typically when reevaluated relative to their interactions in another countery (in this case when living in germany) they know longer met the diagnostic criteria in many cases.

Also calling someone diagnosed on the ASD who is a professional researxh scie tist who has worked to advance the topic and ablist is kinda out of touch with reality and rude, but we can let that slide...

@bibliolater i think so. Go tonsettings and add it to your favorites. That should do it i think.

If you are well organized, it is a healthy trait. no one would say you are "on the OCD spectrum".. but when that trait gets out of hand we would say you have OCD, and likely would be diagnosed as such.

I see (autism) ASD and ADHD as much the same way. Most people diagnosed with it who are high functioning dont really have it at all. It is just a personality trait and all in all a positive one. high-functioning ASD are just people without social hangups, good. And people with ADHD who are high-functioning are largely just amazing multi-taskers.

The harm in putting people on a spectrum is they see themselves asa diseased, broken, something that needs "consideration.. they arent, in most cases in the right proportions these "diseases" are in fact just super powers, things more people should wisht hey have really.

@LouisIngenthron Because the crust we cut for kids is usually the same crust adults hate... I never knew an adult who wanted white loaf crust we just tolerate it. Likewise kids seem to love italian bread flaky crust just like adults.

@koyu

Proving this wrong is my kink!

@manlycoffee Its not really limited to LLMs and its not really linguists. It is Ontologists which is often confused with linguistic onologists but in reality they mean semantic web ontologists. I run a AI company that doesnt do LLM an we need ontologists too for example.

Which form of pronouns will you use when asked?
