“Ashamed – we with adhd are discriminated against”
“Debater: Fear and ignorance control our authorities.”
“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”
“the DEBATE. I am an editor at a magazine and live on a nice lake with my son, have a meaningful leisure time and lectures on adhd and autism. I works well, in spite of my adhd, because I get good support. I live thus, a life where I have great responsibilities without any major problems.”
“But recently, I got a problem when I would apply for a learner’s permit. Why then? Well, because I have adhd.”
“My psychiatrist snorted something that she did not understand why she ”must keep on with this shit” when she filled in my medical certificate to the transport agency. n”Is the individuals with adhd in any way more prone to crash than others?”, I asked her. n”No, of course not.” she said. nOch she was right. There is no research that points to why I, who have adhd should have a medical certificate that says I have the concentration enough to drive a car.”
“Young men who drive the BMW is, according to Folksam, over-represented in accident statistics. Do they need any medical certificate? Of course not.”
“There is thus no evidence that people with adhd are worse at driving a car – yet only continues härjandet by a medical certificate. Why then? Well, the reason that it is a form of discrimination that is going on. Live. In front of our eyes and it is our policy makers and our bureaucracy that makes it possible.”
“the Madness does not stop, even in the case that we find it difficult to get a driver’s license. We may not be soldiers or police officers. Do you have adhd or autism, you can’t even apply for. There is no point.”
“Many have begun to get up the eyes for this and the discrimination Ombudsman, DO, has for the first time begun to take this seriously and investigating the why the armed forces admissions unit.”
“But why must this be continued and have been continued for so long? Therefore, it is fear and ignorance that put a stop to.”
“But hey, the armed Forces, the Swedish transport agency and the Police – there is no excuse. Start taking to you the knowledge! You are the authorities. Make decisions based on facts and research. I have adhd but yet I have managed to google me to the knowledge that you have not even managed to take to you.”
“Who is it that has disabilities? You need to be much better to make use of the executive functions you actually have and stop bait you impulsive and guess you up.”
“And if the armed Forces do not allow persons with adhd and autism to enlist in the army – how will it go for you? Excuse me, but what do you think have built your signalspaningssystem? It was probably people with autism who sat and nötte it forward through hours of hard work while the others was and kallpratade at the coffee break and made you so where the normative, moderately, very much.”
“What do you think comes up with new ideas? What do you think stands at the front in the front? What do you think is the most principled people? What is it that lives after a strong end and always pointing at the rules? “
“Yes, you guessed right. People with adhd and autism. It is ignorant to even assume otherwise.”
“I have a high tolerance for you as a professional don’t always know what the diagnoses means. I must have because I lectured and trained thousands of professionals. “
“But that authorities are not even making the effort to understand and filter such a large group of us without even faktakolla before – it’s just embarrassing. And you should be ashamed.”
