I am calm.... I just don’t like people throwing diagnoses around when the majority of us are not qualified to do so. My daughter has adhd and I wouldn’t presume to suggest someone else has it on a forum like this. It’s been suggested on Rebecca Lambs thread about her son... people are far to quick to say ‘I wouldn’t be surprised.....’ because he runs awkwardly etc
Whilst I agree it isn't exactly right to 'throw diagnoses around' when based on something as small as to 'how an influencers son runs', I do however think that people who are on a forum like this obviously have the right to their free speech and opinion - whether it is right or wrong. We are hardly a hard science discussion group - yet in the instance of this thread, those who are mentioning these traits are simply picking up on perhaps SOME of the things that are recognised by the general public as that type of behaviour.
Yes, the majority aren't qualified, but it's not like we are diagnosing anything here. It's simply an open discussion. Much like perhaps how a comment would be said if someone was say 'limping all of a sudden' - the outward sign is they have possibly hurt their leg. It's common knowledge for us all to try and make our own conclusions to actions that are behaviour based on what we see. Whether it's physical or mental health.
It just feels a bit out of context here as it has nothing to do with whoever Rebecca Lamb is or her son.
