I don't even know for 100% sure I have it but the last time I tried to talk to a professional they basically just wrote me off because my grades were good as a kid, I understand part of the diagnostic criteria is symptoms presenting themselves in childhood but to be honest I got by just fine without studying or paying very much attention.

Does anyone have experience with this

      (I’m pretty sure they don’t call it “ADHD” anymore, they call it ADD with certain characteristics which may or may not include “hyperactivity”.)

      I think it's the other way around in the dsm: ADHD hyperactive and inattentive types

      Of course the dsm is made up, so none of this classification has been proven to relate to etiology of adhd

      Without going into too much detail, that story wouldn't make any sense unless I also changed major details about my life right now. I'm also not a good liar and while I don't think it would be immoral I'd still like to leave it as a last resort
