[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s tricky. Some people are so open about it. My 11 y/o was diagnosed with ADHD and also has anxiety. She wants nobody to know about the ADHD. We aren’t totally letting her make this decision and have said we may need to disclose in the future but we are holding back for now. We do mention the anxiety sometimes to people but I feel like that’s more accepted and normal these days. And also it’s the one that’s much more outwardly obvious, so we feel like we need to share it. [/quote] Interesting, my kid has ADHD and so do a lot of his friends, and my sense is they don't care who knows. [/quote] Same with DD. She has ADHD and she is very open about it with the expectation people will wrap all her stuff up with that diagnosis. It feels like ADHD is relatively openly acknowledged at this point.[/quote]
