I was diagnosed at 25. I was suspecting it from the age of 14 tho, but adults wont take the word from a teen 🫣 instead I was told I did drugs cause of the daydreaming in class, had sleeping disorders, was bipolar and that it's the fault of my bad relationship with my mother (I didn't have a bad relationship with my mother, still don't. ) 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

lol i never see anyone else diagnosed that early  
i think i was around 6 or so when i was diagnosed because i was just so hyper and clearly couldnt focus...  
there is no doubt i have adhd and i was on medication at 8 years old

i never once got "addicted" in any way, whether consciously or subconsciously like many think would happen

the fact that 30+ is the most voted here gives me a relief. i had a belief that "ADHD is only diagnosed when you're a child" for quite a long time tbf

I’m still not diagnosed, but would chose the Obiwan… It’s the only thing which makes sense though. ☺️Even with all the doubts 🫠

Wow, I didn’t think a lot of people were diagnosed when they were older. I thought they were more like diagnosed like early or like teens interesting.

As a nearly 37yo who was diagnosed officially just at 32… yep! A lot of people all over the world believe like you did, but unfortunately that’s not the case anymore.

I've been suspecting me having ADHS for years now, finally trying to find someone to evaluate me 👏🏻
