Hi DaniV. Glad you’re here. I found out when I was 45. It made sense in light of a lifetime of struggles. My son has it, too – he’s 12, was diagnosed at age 5. I still haven’t figured out how to handle my own problems, so I don’t feel I’m that much of a help to him, but I’m glad we know what we’re dealing with. Understanding the challenges has helped me realize I’m not alone, ADHD is real, and there are ways to manage it. Still working on the management part. I think it’s worth taking the time to learn as much as possible about it. It’s also good to listen to the stories of other people.
