If this is the case than anything beyond a perfect clone is a disability. Shorter than 6' as a man? Disability. Flat chest as a woman? Disability. Eyes too far apart? Disability.
I have ADHD and I've managed life pretty fine, because when I was growing up I was just 'energetic'. I managed to control my issues over time. Granted -- I'm not as severe as some cases; but I think the severity is what should be considered the disease, not the ADHD itself.
