Has anyone else experienced negative outcomes from disclosing your ADHD diagnosis to coworkers? I think that my accounts of events are treated as less reliable than other people, among other issues. I wonder if it would be better if people just thought I was stupid and forgetful instead of inconsistently hyper-capable.

I totally get you. some coworkers thought it was an excuse, so I don't get assigned as much work as them, so i just ignore them. that's why I just told my work bestie and my supervisor (we're friends). I think they're the only people I want them to know
