I've just been hearing a lot about people who assume they might have ADHD who project their, apparently, "mundane and daily struggles" on a diagnosis when there isn't any grounds for a diagnosis. At least that's what I've been hearing on social media and have been told by two doctors I've spoken to about this. I know doctors quite often are biased and think they know better - future SLT here and I've been hearing a lot about "bad apples" - but it just seems to be the norm to assume that it can't be ADHD when you're an adult. It would explain a lot of my struggles growing up and my academic achievements growing up but still.

There's an ADHD clinic in the nearest bigger city close to me where you could get a diagnosis or at least an appointment to talk about a diagnosis but their waiting list is like 3+ years long - they even stopped picking up the phone for people trying to get an appointment. Not sure where else to go.

Sorry for the wall of text
