No, the meme is pretty dismissive as it’s a broadside shot on mental health treatment. It’s a meme. it’s inherently shallow and doesn’t disqualify anything. There are plenty of people who think they have ADHD but are just suffering from environmental effects, and there are plenty of ADHD people who suffer daily trying to exist (myself included). It’s clear that depression and anxiety have risen due to the environmental conditions but they are still conditions that need help and treatment. Just because working in a coal mine causes black lung doesn’t mean you can just either fix the mine or help the people, you have to do both at the same time.
What about them? This meme is not dismissive of them
