OH GOD IT SOOO ME . The first time I suggested that I had adhd I told a family member who is psy , because "he know better than me" , he made me do like 4simple exercise and told me "nan you are just a little bruned out". And this is how I lost 1year and a half of diagnostic , and one day I consulted a psychiatrist and could you guess what I had ? ADHD YAY

Not diagnosed but my son is and I can't read a page of a book without forgetting what It's about so prob am I'm 42.now so it's just crack on as normal.

hyperactivity is the only symptom that went away, all the other ones got worse

Lol, I was told that I don't have ADHD because I am not hyperactive - except for the phases when I am, then I am getting on everyones nerves. Last month I was diagnosed. Im 36...

I have the feeling only others with ADHD can relate to the countless evenings I sat crying over my homework, my daily tasks, bills I just forgot and the constant struggle to get my shit together. I mean: Thinking back I can smile, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't come with some kond of bitterness.

Next month will get medication for the first time. I'm interested if I really only needed to try harder or if I actually fought agaibst an invisible wall.
