Technically for diagnosis, ADD needs to be present in childhood. Focus and concentration problems from meds are just focus and concentration problems from meds.

After 4 hours with a psychologist, only during the last 5 minutes did we explore this possibility and she expressed regret for only having my personality tested, because she said it sounded like I could have it.
It took 3 months to get that worthless appointment but I discovered I can't tolerate gluten or dairy just recently, and my body feels the best it has in years. Less brain fog, but I still have to work on forgetfullness and getting pulled in all directions. |
