It’s not that the methods are bad or ineffective, it’s that the advice is unsolicited and condescending. Do you offer to help everyone you meet with every one of their medical conditions? You meet somebody with a rash, and you say “just rub some vaseline with aloe on that, it’ll go away.” You don’t know the cause of the rash, or if that will help, or if they tried it already. There’s no “just” anything that makes ADHD go away.
You think I don’t know but I have had a life full of that. It’s hard but it doesn’t matter if you realise they don’t mean that. They mean well. They mean “just” as a way to help. It’s useless to mark that. It’s helping no one to whine about that or to vent. It helps to realise it’s a wrong assumption of why they say “just”
Ok, well, this meme was about you and I’m sorry we all hurt your feelings pointing out you’re not helping. I did my best to help you understand, but if you prefer to continue to be the asshole, then I hope you have the life you deserve.

Intentions are much more important than words
I am not wrong. Just old.

I don’t follow? I have never said that to anyone. You seem lost, hope you get better
