Same condition maybe, but circumstances? Doesn't sound like it.

No, it’s why I commented: you have authority over people, and you don’t seem to be seeking understanding, because of your own experience with the disorder.

In some areas and circumstances, your response can be problematic. You didn’t say what you do besides mentally rolling your eyes, but as an example: management ignoring an employee sharing a recognized disorder and requesting reasonable accommodation is the basic premise for a lawsuit.

I’m not saying this is happening here, but this is the kind of scenario management needs to be aware of and prepared for, specifically.

More generally, I would hope managers would be empathetic, but I also understand that this is rarely to never on the job description.

Edit: I see in another part of the thread that you seem to know all this, so nevermind. But I’ll leave this for others to understand that there is a responsibility, here.
