Welcome @ PHewson !
Have you ever tried medication for your ADHD? They have to be careful to not send your mood up but it sounds like that's been fairly stable for a while. I think some of the newer ADHD meds are considered safer with bipolar. I know we've had people on here before on meds for both and some have said it really makes a difference.
