I was about 2 months away from my 40th birthday, and fired from my umteenth job. I couldn't concentrate or focus and always day dreaming. I knew a little about adult ADD, so I went to my GP & low and behold I have ADD.

Flash forward...

I get bored with things so easily. One day I'm really passionate and excited about something, the next I am just drained thinking about it. I love new challenges and opportunities. There are times when I think I'm...

Those were the very words of my psychiatrist one year ago. I responded by laughing because I wasn't surprised one bit. I found it funny that not one shrink had diagnosed me for something that I struggled with. It was the root problem...

I have mentioned perhaps here & there that things have been a little difficult for me of late. Since quitting coffee last November I've slowly lost what control I had over my brain.

There are a lot of sad stories about what undiagnosed ADHD has done to people's lives.  This isn't one of them.  I was lucky.  Blessed with high intelligence, I was able to cram for the exams the night before and pull off high marks...

Right now I am eating sweetcorn, out of a bowl with a dessert spoon. My body needs more than fruits & vegetables, & yoghurt. But I can't stomach anything too solid. It's the best I can do grain wise.
This whole thing is really intense...

Having an ADHD makes everything hard. It impacts every area of your life. It is also very hard to diagnose even for the professional, let alone yourself. Some ppl can suffer years without knowing what's going on.

The title is not misleading. I want to know why most of the general public does not want to acknowledge the existence or severity of adult ADHD. Only suffers and the families of suffers know what I mean. There is this myth that ADHD'ers...

An impromptu coffee with a friend was a huge turning point in my life. She revealed to me that she was recently diagnosed with adult ADHD. I looked at her, thinking "What do I say?". I mumbled a vague comment instead, saying "I don't...

I've had this since childhood, and still in adulthood to some extent. Medications may help some people, but personally I've opted to go without them. I basically was forced to do medical speed from ages 7-18 because of this diagnosis...
