Audhd ain’t a disorder in the same sense as hypersexuality. Most people with it aren’t profoundly disabled and it is more akin to personality and abilities.
Hypersexuality appears to be closer to e.g. compulsive behavior. Noone is proud for having a compulsion or benefits from them proportionately to the harm.
You are conflating terms due to linguistic similarities.
It’s symptoms can include compulsive behaviour, executive disfunction and emotional disregulation and other stuff that make life much more difficult.
It is disabling.
Speaking as someone who suffered from this since I was little. I have been punished by my parents, humiliated by teachers and got in trouble at work multiple times because of these behaviours I have no control of.
Noone is proud for having a compulsion or benefits from them proportionately to the harm.

There are disability/neurodivergence pride flags too. Would you ditch the ADHD flag to stop “oh, I’m SO ADHD” people from using it?

ADHD gives no benefits. It’s a disability.
