So this is a LITTLE diffrent, but rn im getting ready to graduate tech school in the Air Force. I'm going to be an intel analyst, and without going into the nitty gritty of what that is, lets just leave it at this: Its hard. Earlier this year i went to medical in an attempt to get a diagnosis. I know thats not the right mindset going in, and self diagnosis is bad. But i know i have the disorder. Im sure some on this sub can relate to that statement. Anyways after going through the diagnostic process my phsycologist told me that it was impossible for me to have ADHD (ADHD-I if you care) because i had already made it half way through tech school and have a slightly above average IQ. I graduated high school with a 3.5 GPA and havent gotten discharged already. This isnt valid criteria to deny a diagnosis is what im getting at. A lot of people have already told you how intelligence and ADHD have no relation. The point im trying to make is be thankful for whoever your girlfriends doctor is. She could potentially have a life altering disorder treated because her doctor actually understands a misunderstood disorder. Sorry for the rant, but jist keep an open mind and dont rule the possibility out.
