Hello, my name is Louise and I've suffered with ADHD since I was a child but I'm only recently deciding to get a diagnosis because my son has recently been diagnosed and I feel like it is my fault and I owe it to him to explore this further.I have spoken to me doctor this morning and he is applying for funding to be assessed. He mentioned that is extremely hard to get a diagnosis in adults and I feel like I may have missed my chance at being diagnosed. I was wondering if anyone could tell me any stories or help that they have had.

I have an appointment with a neurologist in a month because i think i have adhd. The stories i read on this site are so recognizable. It feels so weird, all my “extreame” social anxiety dissapeared because i don’t feel stupid anymore but i’m also very frustrated because i know i need help with my organizational issues and my underdeveloped emotions i cry really easy and panic all the time. I can’t talk to my dad either because i am afraid he has it too I’m 24 and I can’t imagine how it must feel like to find out at his age. I think in some cases it’s better not to know

Hello I am 48 and got diagnosed with ADHD 2 years ago I have struggled through life from school to relationships I was a single father at 24 and I guess that kept me busy I find life a constant battle I always knew something wasn’t right with me and the diagnosis was quite hard hitting I have just started 2 new medications 1 yesterday i constantly get stressed and angry i am way over sensitive which is positive and negative I’m am so loving but when I get hurt it smashes my soul , there is a condition that comes with adhd called rejection sensitive dysphoria which is way out of my control to control my emotions everyday is a battle I can be the most beautiful person but such a nasty person I do not have control over my emotions I’m hoping you get the help and treatment you deserve it is a constant battle to to get diagnosed but once you do you can start to recognise your behaviour patterns good luck in the diagnosis
