That's super interesting, thanks for sharing. Sometimes my friends use the phrase "AuDHDer" (autistic person who also has ADHD) or "ADHDer".

I agree with you about the phrasing in the post being weird. Do you find that it feels different if it's said by someone who has ADHD, potentially towards other neurodivergent folk? I ask because whilst I don't think I really use phrasing "I am ADHD"/"She is ADHD", I do know that the way I speak about neurodivergence is different when I am amongst other people who are neurodivergent.

Hm, I’m not sure. Lots of people have ADHD, so it’s not that often. I’m not “out” as having ADHD at work, and I think there, I’m more inclined to say “person with ADHD” than “ADHDer”.
