Mean symptoms lol

So let’s talk about it. Tell me your story.

I wasn't diagnosed until I was 27, and I only was then because my psychiatrist was amazing and I was getting treatment for depression.

Thanks for sharing, rfrizzy. How would you say that having combined type ADHD has impacted you on a daily basis, both the good and the bad?

Please. This is THE forum to rant. I totally agree that the world needs to change.

In regards to the world changing, I seen a quote on a video for neurodiversity that said “when a flower doesn’t bloom you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower”

Very untrue. Check out "How To ADHD" on YouTube—you will find that there is *specific* research in this area... you're just surrounded by NTs in a cishet's world and often overlooked. But—the ones looking, they see you 👀

Non-binary amab here ✋, dx'd at 33 after a whole lifetime of neglect. Also: severe antisocial/socially confused/sensory-sensitive Autistic, PTSD from many angles, and over 9 counts of TBI. Always referres to as BPD+MDD+GAD before my self-dx and confirmation when I sought ND psych eval.

Anyone of you guys have hyperactive sx that you feel are misunderstood bc they look different than in a young boy?

Yep! I'm not physically hyperactive at all, unless you count "being fidgety" from EDS→blood pooling or Autistic hand-flapping while I speak with emotion. But my braaaaaain ohhh my... My brain is bouncing off the dang walls at every little stimulus
