All of the initialisms should be expanded/hoverable. This is impossible to read, directly.

This looks cool, but it's not useful or interesting to me. I don't need to "heal from stigma and internalized ableism", I need to get things done and my brain is resistant to this. "stigma" and "ableism" is just psychobabble to me.

I can't believe they're making a site for individuals with ADHD that uses that many carousels.

I have a feeling that the massive quantities of prescribed amphetamines we've dumped into the population, including millions of children, is going to age about as well as using radium for wristwatches. But I guess we'll have to see the "evidence" for that.

To be fair, that was a question from a reddit user that you are quoting.

Not much evidence on here, other than “avoid food colourants.”

One of the recommendations, CBT, is inspired by NLP (heavily). I can say that NLP did wonders for me.

Site is attrocious :)

Agreed. It almost seems intentionally designed to make it hard to find useful information. Inconsistent spacing, typography, insufficient negative space, lines that are far too long, etc.

That being said, I wonder if it was made by someone who has ADHD?
