Why the hell does this keep happening? I still hear horror stories of how people struggle for half of their lives and nobody stops to think “this isn’t normal, we should see a doctor” and it just infuriates me.

Please, if it is negatively effecting your life or you get into arguments about it and it’s effecting your social or home life, see a doctor.

      I was able to get an adult ADD diagnosis in my 50s from my mental health counselor. Which was forwarded to my PCP. Only then I was allowed to start meds.

      I have heard it’s notoriously hard to get a diagnosis as an adult.
