When a person finds any excuse to be angry to the point of intentionally misinterpreting things. It's impossible to have a conversation with such people.
I have dealt with ADD and a problem called misophonia my entire life. I'll stick with misophonia for now since it is easier to summarize. This is a very real difference with my mind that can be thought of as "not normal" among the majority. Specific sounds cause what can be described as an anxiety attack for me. This is completely out of my control and no amount of logical reasoning can make my body stop behaving this way. Even when I know for certain there is nothing wrong with that sound and I shouldn't be so annoyed with it. Regardless, it has caused me a lot of trouble being able to function in modern society where I can't avoid being around these specific sounds. When something different with your mind starts to cause significant problems functioning in society is when we label something as a mental disorder. This is literally the definition of a mental disorder. Now imagine for a moment there was an environment that didn't have any of these sounds that cause me problems. Or how about an environment with no sounds at all? The difference with my mind would never even have an opportunity to present itself and thus would never even be known. Therefore it can be said that I don't have a mental disorder in this environment. It is likely not possible for most mental disorders to have any feasible change environment that could make it not difficult to exist in that environment. I've made no such claims that this is possible let alone easy and that is an entirely a fabrication of yours.
The crux of the problem I am getting at is that the way people think of mental disorders is from an ableist perspective. That there is something wrong with the person themselves for the way they were born. This is merely a problem of semantics and definitions as I have said many times.
In the future please stop being so rude and intentionally misinterpreting intent. You give off the impression of a very rude person with ableist points of view which is rather uncool.
Where in this sentence is it implied that it is possible let alone easily doable to change the environment? Using an "if" conditional implies a hypothetical and nothing more. You people are being nonsensical and looking to be angry for reason beyond comprehension at this point.
That might the gist of it, but it definitely has everything to do with how the environment is structured. There might be no other feasible way to structure the environment though.
I suggested no such thing. You are coming to wild conclusions on your own. Please read it again more carefully. I have in no way suggested that it is possible to change the environment.
You have misunderstood what has been said. It's more challenging because society has built an environment that is not suitable for you and many others. This is just a matter of semantics and how to attribute fault with definitions. It's not your fault who you are is not suitable for the way things are. It's the way things are that are not suitable for you.
I've been seeing this a lot lately. Lots of bandwagoning going on. It is what it is though. People are fallible and often just follow the herd instead of thinking.
You don't understand. It's only a mental disorder because we have built environments for people that are not suitable for everybody. It's possible that there may not exist an environment that makes any mental disorder not be a problem, but ADD and ADHD in my opinion is not one of them. Many countries don't recognize these as a mental disorders because they haven't built a society that causes problems for people with ADD or ADHD.
As someone with ADD I find it a bit ridiculous that because I can't pay absolute attention on something I'm uninterested in while stuck in a room unable to leave that I have a mental disorder. The problem doesn't lie with me, but with the environment I am in. But alas, that is just how a mental order is defined.
I don't even think it should be labeled as a disorder. Or at least people should be more aware of what a disorder means. It doesn't necessarily mean there is anything wrong with the person. The behavior just happens to not be suitable for the particular environment they are in and causes difficulties. If you change environments to one that allows that behavior to no longer be a problem then they no longer have a disorder.
I've never heard of anyone actually just sitting on the couch and listening to an audiobook while doing nothing else. It's usually while doing some other mundane activity that doesn't require much thought. Or at least something that doesn't require the language part of your brain so you can do them at the same time. I can't work and listen because my work involves thinking about words.
But at all times I am in the middle of a paper book and an audiobook. I listen to the audiobook when driving, doing chores and am in the shower. All other times I will read the paper book I am in the middle of.
If there is no keyhole to pick then it is probably marginally more secure, but if a burglar wants to get into your home then no door lock is going to stop them. They could just break it or break your windows.
I occasionally buy a hardcover of a book I listened to on audiobook if I really liked it. Sometimes I'll even switch back and forth on the same book depending on if I have the time to sit down and read paper.
It's strange but I feel like with audiobooks the information is transferred directly into my mind. With reading text I have to convert the text into words in my mind so it can then be understood. This is a nearly instant process and almost imperceptible, but it does make listening to an audiobook an easier form of reading with a higher level of comprehension for me. I can get the same from a paper book, but it takes a little bit more mental work to achieve the same level of comprehension.
Perhaps some people can look at a word and have it directly understood without thinking about how the word sounds. I probably can do that just fine for individual words, but when it comes to painting a complex scene in my head it just doesn't work without a bit more effort.
It's unfortunate because I have a misophonia problem and sounds, especially the sounds of peoples voices annoys me greatly. It's completely out of my control. I just hear specific sounds and I can feel my body getting anxious. Some voices cause this problem and others don't. I have no idea what about someones voice annoys me, but it is a completely involuntary reaction no amount of logical reasoning can get rid of.
I'm hoping for some crazy robot (android) conspiracy where Demerzel has been creating a robot army for hundreds of years and is waiting to destroy all humans. 🤖
