Mocking real disorders
http://www.msuspokesman.com/media/st...uspokesman.com
Twenty year old Hannah Wineberg tells the story of her struggles with Attention Deficit Hyper-Active Disorder; better known as ADHD. The room is tense, as all eyes stare fiercely at this young woman who attends the prestigious Smith College in Massachusetts. "When I hear claims that students fake ADHD in order to get prescription from their doctors, I get really frustrated. I had to sit through hours upon hours of testing just to prove that I had a disability. It just makes a mockery of who I am and what I struggle with on a daily basis." |

There are those sick *******s who constantly post messages denying the existence of disabilities or showing the downside as embodied by a minuscule number of people who are either abusing the system or abusing the treatments. There is NO doubt in my mind that their postings are made for the purpose of mocking those who suffer. |
