what they mean by that is, "thank god they learned to mask the problem so they stop inconveniencing us"
Your experience isn't everyone's experience, and judging people who struggle more helps no one. I was medicated as a teenager, grew out of it, then suddenly got whacked over the head by it coming back in my late twenties. Medication has helped, and I've learned a lot of tricks to manage it, but the fact that I have to work twice as hard or more to do basic things that other people do without thinking means it clearly is a disability. I'm also autistic and I feel far more disabled by my ADHD than my autism.
