Hi guys

My name is Val. I have been learning how to get around the site and finally found my place. I am an undiagnosed 56 yo lady who has had symptoms of ADHD since I was a child. I believe I have it to a tee. I am extremely hyperactive. My body feels like a motor that won't stop running. My mind is fast and my verbal conversations are full of disorganization. This cognition is what I feel got me misdiagnosed with bipolar. I have NO mania. In fact, I am irritable and highly distracted. I am impulsive and have moved and changed jobs over 45 times each!. I have terrible relationship skills. I see a new pdoc soon and I hope he sees my true symptoms so I can be placed on the right medication. I am only on 2 mgs of clonazepam and ambien for sleep. I also have GAD and sleep problems, especially sleep initiation. I welcome any thoughts or comments. Thanks.
Hugs from:
