    Combative? Take a look in the mirror pal.

    I guess I’m ultimately confused about what you’re arguing for. My ADHD is by no means “extreme”; trouble focusing at work or school is one of the baseline things you’re unlikely to get diagnosed without. I can’t imagine any reasonable person advocating for medicating people who don’t stand to benefit from it, which seems to be the motte to your bailey.

      “Combative?”

      yup.

      “Take a look in the mirror pal.”

      thank you! that was a nice break.

      “I guess I’m ultimately confused about what you’re arguing for.”

      I would suggest asking the source for clarification or further information rather than misattributing assumptions and then arguing against those assumptions, none of which are present in the comment you are confused by and subsequently railing against.

      “I can’t imagine any reasonable person advocating for medicating people who don’t stand to benefit from it”

      tolerant place you’re from.

      “seems to be the motte to your baile”

      how so?

      My original comment isn’t controversial and I didn’t switch positions either.

      is this a gaslighting attempt?

      are you lighting my gas?
