I was diagnosed in my late 50’s. It was a complicated process because there is another mental health co-morbidity that shares some traits.
After going through the more than a year long process, we are working on dialing in the meds.
One of the challenges for diagnosis is that the attention economy is shortening a lot of people’s attention span, causing many people to feel that they have ADHD, and diverting resources from diagnosing people who actually have ADHD. Not saying that the issue shouldn’t be addressed. The combination of these factors, and the rather long and complicated process of a proper diagnosis is a challenge.




Worth it 100%. Knowledge is power. Simply knowing why shit was happening in my life, and how to be ready and prevent/mitigate, has changed my life. Meds for ADHD and the other issue have also made my life much, much better.
