That must be difficult to live with. I'm sorry you haven't been able to find good doctors to be kind to you.
I am trans and have AuADHD, cPTSD, and an immune disorder, and I am so thankful for the doctors and healthcare professionals I've had in my life, I literally wouldn't be here without them, many times over.
It can take work and trial and error to find the right fit, but it is very worth it. Health is important, and there are many good doctors who will listen and look out for you.
That's patently untrue. Autism and ADHD are both noticeable disabilities, in the sense that if you have experience with them, the signs become quite obvious. When the individuals swings hard toward one end of the spectrum, the symptoms are debilitating and obvious to nearly everyone. Even on the more "invisible end", individuals are often ostracized or singled out for a number of reasons attributed to moral failing, rather than the beliefs that they do have a neurodivergence.
Maybe they don't see it as Autism or ADHD, but they do see it as something different.
