"Disorder" can be seen negatively. That is fair. However, if you use a milder term than "disorder", then it is even harder for people to take ADHD seriously as a real thing. This is already a challenge, and using a less serious word would make it worse.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
