Yes, by definition the difference is only in the sense that it affects your life negatively. Of course, negatively will be relative but logically if the individual is okay with it (and the people in their life agree) they will not seek treatment or a diagnosis.
To be more precise the cliché idea that society is insane and the individual is sane is not really helpful because dysfunction relative to the society is the entire defining aspect of what insanity is.

Perhaps that is why adhd diagnosis is on the up because we see so many people suffering in the construct that does not work well for those that have such sensitivities?
