Bakugo has ADHD and is on the Autistic spectrum

Bakugo appears to be a well functioning teenage boy that just so happens to lack the common regulation of emotions. We see him losing his cool, throwing fits and just having a breakdown when things don’t go his way.

Now we pause this program to bring some light onto the importance of these next few images. I am going to bring out some quotes (woah so cool) to further my point.

“He performs masculinity properly via intelligence and aggression, but fails to perform socially. Because of his gendered performance, no authority figure is shown trying to teach him... he seems to be labeled as ‘difficult’ or praised for his power.”

He was praised for his strong abilities yet discarded as unteachable for his lack of empathy and regulated emotions after they molded him to be that way.

“Bullying Deku or having a literal explosion quirk, but again, gender performance & ableism.”

This just furthers that idea.

As shown during the sports festival on multiple occasions, his meltdowns. The first instance being right after he loses whatever that damn chicken race contest was.

He was on the floor and was clearly upset by the loss. Going as far as yelling in his Bakugo fashion out of frustration.

I cut the audio because it was ear splitting

The second piece of evidence will have to be his fight with Todoroki and the aftermath.

You could hear it in his voice as he yelled at Todoroki— his limp ass self — and demanded he wake up and do it right. If Todoroki didn’t do it correctly in the way Bakugo expected and rationalized as normal then it throws him off.

Bakugo was having an “emotional crisis” because Todoroki refused to fight with his full power. He craved to fight, it’s what he does and feels right doing. It’s how he expresses himself and his emotions. It’s how he was molded and rewarded for acting on. To have someone not fulfill that “it’s what you’re supposed to do” feeling and disrupt that process then it’s reasonable as to why he was having a breakdown.

“Neurodivergence is criminalized by society”

Now... due to the breakdown they restrained him like some uncontrollable misbehaving nuisance. Not very cash money of them.

Don’t even get me started on the similarities and how wrong it was because YOU KNOW I WILL.

Now I know what you all must be thinking, “Dio, is that all you’ve got? There has to be more.” Well obviously there is more, have you seen my other Todoroki-Dio theory posts? Hush and let me finish.

I’ve heard people with ADHD have rooms that are incorporated with its own clutter system to ensure everything is found— no matter how chaotic it appears to others.

Ring a bell?!?!?!?

Ok yeah it might just be trashed....

really trashed.....

but Shh...

Anyway

Bakugo gets angry and has outbursts over small things. He has an incredibly hard time with rejection. Very competitive, his one thing he hyper focuses on is becoming a pro hero and improving himself. Has little patience and tends to talk over others with the need to be heard.

ALSO. and you know it’s not a good post without PAIN SO—

Bakugo got extremely emotionally overwhelmed and started having an emotional breakdown/crisis after watching All Might’s battle. Now a lot went into that scene and the ones leading up to it.

At first he was angry and had that fight with Midoriya. I view it as his overwhelming feelings of guilt and despair being unable to regulate and process correctly. Resulting in his overall angry blowout then finally a emotional release. Letting his feelings out.

And one last thing for the road.... his entire personality is just a special interest. nEED I SAY MORE?

I’m sure I could say more but I made this at 5 am so I won’t. There might be spelling errors so close your eyes and move on

But of course as I’ve said before.

SMACK MY ASS, CALL ME SHOTO AND SAY IT’S MY POWER. I think I’ve done it again.

Now I’m not a genius nor am I very versed in this but I know what I’ve heard and learned on my own so correct me and add on if you’d like.

Linktree. Make your link do more.

Addition:

Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.

I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is

I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.

Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.

Here’s proof of what I mean:

THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!
