Looking for Personal Experiences with ADHD Symptoms in Women

okay im new here, i want to find women who have adhd and i need more personal symptoms, i know this is wrong but i am not officially diagnosed with adhd, although i am actually in the process of getting an official psychiatrists diagnosis, i have been struggling with focusing my whole life, i have done numerous studies on adhd symptoms in younger women, the focusing the mood swings the forgetfulness, i have it all to an extreme my father has been diagnosed with adhd since he was a little kid, so that widens the possibility of me having it. i just want to know more personal symptoms, not just not being able to focus and being forgetful, i have tried focusing in school, in order for me to actually i have to focus on every single word that comes out of my teachers mouth and say it back to myself in my head, or whispering it under my breath, and my true enemy is those stories that you have to read and answer questions, i have to read the words and whisper it to my self and if i don’t then my mind will wander to other things, and my forgetfulness is so prominent and it has been for years, i have lost my phone so many time, i have walked into rooms to get something then forget then remember an hour later, i have forgotten the topic i was talking about to a friend and they have to remind me, and i have never ever been able to finish a story without randomly remembering something that i forgot and then talking about that, i just want to be on medication, i hear it helps a lot🤷🏻‍♀️

Have you tried getting diagnosed? Or talking to a therapist?
