My mom threw a massive tantrum at my school when they suggested I might benefit from medication. To be fair, it was a bad school and their specific recommendations were dubious, but something was certainly "up". My sibling learned they were diagnosed with ADHD in childhood about a year ago, and they're in their forties now.
Mental health stigma is really damaging.
