The war to end all wars, they called it

Personal experience from Germany but also heard from others in the UK: it's easier to get an ADHD diagnosis as an adult than an ASD diagnosis as an adult.

Lhianna ,

For ADHD it means you can try medication to help you. For ASD it wouldn't change anything for me personally so I'm not going to bother.

Lhianna ,

Well, I had to go through excessive tests, including blood work and EEG.

Lhianna ,

Blood tests help to exclude other reasons for symptoms so they absolutely have bearing.

Lhianna ,

Sounds like ammo should be handled carefully

    So much this!

    And everyone has to pee but if you have to do it 40 times a day you should have that looked at 🙄

    Pretty much, yes. He didn't know anything and if the authorities had told him he'd have fired the guy but instead the authorities waited until the European election was close so they could make him out to be the bad guy.

    You're welcome and I probably could have worded that better but yes, I was quoting them.

    Those still happen? I honestly believed these things were firmly in the past.

    [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

    Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don't come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don't really get upset by it...

    Lhianna ,

    I have no issues with veganism but I do have issues with being attacked because I'm not vegan. I've been attacked for using cow milk even after explaining that I can't use plant milk because of sensory issues.

    Funnily enough, just like you said, I know vegans IRL who would never behave that way and of course I accommodate their dietary choices when I'm in charge of food.

    I think it's mostly an Internet thing when you just see the loudest minority instead of the more quiet majority.

    Lhianna ,

    And don't you dare tell a vegan you can't drink anything with plant milk!

    Well, it's not much better in Germany tbh. Even getting diagnosed included enormous waiting times and most help afterwards is dedicated to make you able to be part of the workforce.
