I have under-diagnosed ADHD because my father was a Fox News disciple, science-hating, arrogant bigot who believed ADHD was a "conspiracy" of anti-male leftists.
I don't know about your particular situation, but I'm speaking systemically, and about large trends and socio-economic realities that affect people.
But having said that, I'd be very interested to hear what you think the consequences of the under-diagnosis were, realistically.
As far as anti-science, I think people on the left and right of the political spectrum are anti-science, at least to the same degree that term is thrown around.

You're minimizing and trivializing my situation and opinion as invalid.

Well, being called "weird" and routinely dissed and dismissed as some sort of innate character flaw.

I'm not familiar with many or hardly anyone (except crazies) on the left being anti-science. What's your evidence for this?
