Idk wheee you live but here in Belgium my psychiatrist, and people in general, still use both terms. Im gonna go of a limb and say you haven’t spoken with everybody who is diagnosed with ADHD but if you have that would explain why you keep nagging about a conditioner you claimed was irrelevant for the story

Whatever you claim to be diagnosed with still has absolutely no relevance to this story. You made a quick purchase because you're smitten and wanted to impress the new girl you've been chatting with. ADHD isn't a cute little issue of "omg, I can't believe I bought the wrong concert tickets". It's a genuine struggle for those who have it.

I know, because i have it lol, i have struggled with the symptoms, medication & its side effects so i think i can use the term whenever i want :). I didnt realize i had to include a 2 paragrapgh justification of my life issues due to ADD/ ADHD just to be able to use the term… my bad

If you knew it had nothing to do with the story then why did you even include it? 😒 having a diagnosis of something doesn't mean you get to try and glamorize it every chance you have. It was a useless detail to the story, even if you DO have a diagnosis.
