Heartbroken by work cos I’m so naive

I wanted to post something on LinkedIn for ADHD awareness I was excitedly telling people who post often(I don’t) and every single one including HR members warned me not to do it because I’ll make myself a target.

It’s really naive but I thought we’d started getting past penalising people for different issues whether it’s adhd or mental health, etc. I hate myself for always naively taking people at face value and I genuinely thought when my work talked about being committed to DEI and Inclusion they meant it and I’m just heartbroken that admitting I have ADHD could indirectly cause me to lose my job or be managed out.

I dunno where I’m going with this but it just really upset me
