Had anyone been diagnesed with ADHD?

0

Recantly i had been thinking about my relationship, my work, my family, my everyday actions. Keeping in mind my thoughts and things that had happened to me and things i had done i did a lot of resurce and came to conclusion that i might have an adult form of ADHD. I consulted my GP but he could’t give me any answers of this subject simply because it’s not as common as depression.
I been on various types of antydepressants for over 5 years and i’m sick of them cuz they only make me emotionally dead(affecting my family life)
I would love to hear from anyone who has been diagnosed or susspects they suffer from ADHD as an adults!
Many thanks for reading my post!

Hm, well I was diagnosed as ADHD when I was four. I got it from my father as there is a large percentage of it having to do with genetics. Reflect if it runs in the family. Most times in adulthood ADHD becomes ADD without the hyperactivity for most people. I know I have the disorder still, and it affects my daily life, but I stopped taking the pills for it. My family supported the choice and even when I need them, I try to get past the disability on my own. It is your choice whether or not you need those pills or not. If they are affecting your life contact a doctor and tell them, but make a decision for yourself. ADHD can be taken positively, as if provides the person with all kinds of traits that can aid them in their job life or relationships. You just need to figure out which traits match you; and how ADHD might affect you. ADHD is common, just poorly diagnosed or over diagnosed in some cases. Also, you need to fit the criteria of having more than six symptoms of ADHD or you could just have ADD. Anyways, all ADHD does for me is affect the stuff that are important to me and my work ethic the most. Sorry if I couldn't really help you, but if you are sure that you have it; then consult a professional that actually knows what they are talking about. I did quite a few reports on ADD and ADHD.
