I was diagnosed about a year ago but i knew something wasn't quite right with me as a child. Before being medicated i used to find unusual patterns with my behaviour such as extreme spending, rapid thoughts and risky behaviour such as gambling and problems with sleep well the lack of it...and i knew i needed help which then led to an appointment and an official diagnosis by my p-doc. Now i'm medicated and it helps as now i can do alot of things in moderation which was hard before medication.
