Got that covered! The only thing on record is a 1987 diagnoses of Major Depression! I've only been treated for anxiety other then that. The beauty of this is I will not have to lie about the ADHD. I suppose there is a chance they will not agree with my psychiatrist friend in which case nothing is lost at least I'm still in the same situation.
Also, ADHD is common along side with just about every major mental illness. The only snag I can see is myself. If I purposely slip and say some thing I shouldn't say because I have such a freaking ego. I am my worst enemy!
