I’m honestly not understanding what you’re trying to say here. But I guess that’s okay. I at least can pick up the condescension and contempt.

Nah I’m championing it. I’ve spent decades in this system and worked with people who do the diagnosing. Your position of reverence for the process of diagnosis or the authority of those doing diagnosis is not well founded. People who are too poor to get diagnosed are still needing help regardless of wheather an academic has weighted in on the subject. Diagnosis is an opinion, to get insurance to pay for healthcare. That’s all it is. I can recommend you some books on the subject if you actually care to learn more about the topic of how diagnosis actually works.

Diagnosis is being given a paper that makes dickbags believe your lived experience is legitimate.

You don’t, and shouldn’t, need a diagnosis to know you are neurodivergent.
