I have made an appointment with my dr to get a referral for an ADHD assessment later this week. My child was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, and as time has gone on I've realised more and more that I am so much like her. The disorganization in my mind drives me mad, especially at work, where I can never keep track of all the tasks I am supposed to manage and I am constantly being chased up for things everyone else seems to have completed yesterday.
I am afraid the dr will laugh at my concerns. I am almost certain undiagnosed ADHD is an issue for me, but I think the dr will think I'm wasting her time.
But anyway... my question is: for those you diagnosed as an adult, what led to ADHD being raised as a possible issue for you? Did it come from your own suspicions or someone else's?
