Grimes has opened up about finding out that she was diagnosed with ADHD and autism. The Kill V. Maim singer took to her X account to repost a meme about "excessive reading" during childhood supposedly predicting signs of ADHD. ”I have to say, there's this subculture of 'mental health' accounts that I think are, like, extreme info-hazards," Grimes wrote, denouncing the online content. ”Got diagnosed with ADHD/autism this year and realised I'm probably dyslexic, which is why I can't spell at all without spellcheck.” "I feel, like, had we known this when I was a child, I would have worked so much less hard, been on drugs, and so many of the weird obsessions and motivations I had would have been seen as pathological and I could have written off certain things that were very hard for me but I'm glad I overcame them.” According to Grimes, when she was in school learning "about various mental illnesses", she would allegedly "start getting symptoms of them" during the classroom units. The feelings would go away at the end of the lessons. Grimes also claimed that, nowadays, many individuals are "self-diagnosing" potential learning disabilities. "I feel a huge percentage of ADHD is screen addiction and dopaminergic burn-out," she wrote.
