Can you skip the line at Disney if you have ADHD?

Disney also offers what's called Disability Access Service to guests (you're not a “visitor” — you're a “guest”!) who are unable to wait in a long line due to a disability. The card allows you to go to an attraction and get a set time to come back and experience the ride.

Accommodating Guests with Disabilities As part of this commitment, the Disability Access Service (DAS) is a program offered at the Disneyland Resort theme parks to assist Guests who have difficulty tolerating extended waits in a conventional queue environment due to a disability.

MORE DETAILS

In terms of what to say to get a DAS pass, start by explaining why waiting in extended queues would be difficult for you. For example: “I experience ___________ which makes tolerating long lines difficult.” “When I'm in line for a long period of time, ___________ happens.”

There are also bonuses for the number of queues someone stands in during one day. Once they hit 5 rides they get a $5 bonus for the day. At 10 rides they get a $10 bonus and so on. The story gets deeper.

DAS is intended for Guests who have difficulty tolerating extended waits in a conventional queue environment due to a disability.
