    Having proper diagnoses for people help them get care and treatment. It’s better than calling them all “stupid” and ignoring their struggles, which has been the case for decades.

    Most of these “fancy new labels” you’re hearing lately are just recognizing people, so they can be included in society and treated with dignity.

      According to the prior explanation, they already had labels. ADHD, Autism, etc. But now it’s all lumped into “Neurodiverse” or whatever. Sounds like someone trying to impersonalize others. “oh just lump them all together”.
