Replying to Q2: 

 

Oh my goodness yes! I wish people (now and in the past, though I know we can't change the past) were better at recognising ADHD in girls and women! 

 

I wish there was less stigma about neurodiversity generally. 

 

It would be great if teachers and GPs understood more about inattentive type  ADD. And if psychologists and psychiatrists understood it better! I read recently that hyperfocus isn't in the DSM as a sign ir symptom of ADHD!
