Wow, do you have the hyperactive/impulsive type? Why are doctors so against treating adults with ADHD? I had it since I was a child. I got overlooked as far as a diagnosis. Now it is ridiculous to find a doctor who wants to treat it.
I am sorry that you are having trouble getting help. It is such a shame.
