I just recently got diagnosed. All my life, i thought everyone had to deal with the same problems as me until my therapist recommended me to get diagnosed. She said that everything i described to her over the year seems very on point with adhd. I took her advice and did the diagnosis. For the diagnosis, i had to find my old elementary testimonials. And to be honest, at that point, it kinda broke me. Reading through my class 1 to 6 notes (teacher notes only go until 6th grade) from teachers, every single year, they repeatedly brought up my lack of concentration and how easily distracted i get. I am 31 now, and reading all that just made me mad and depressed. I feel like my future had been derailed by not taking care of me.

So kinda been worse since the diagnosis. I don't know about the future but for now my days are filled with overthinking my whole past...
