Thanks for the response. That is part of why I am asking for input. It is accurate that I do not have a diagnosis. My request for advice is because of the significant effect of the medication I mentioned.

Is it typical or atypical for someone without ADHD to have the abatement of traits like that with medication?

Is it possible that someone skilled with children would not catch some of the diagnostic criteria of adults?

Are there other diagnoses that present with most of the traits and respond to the medication but aren’t actually ADHD?

Right now I’m sitting on a lot of questions (and frustration) with no answers. I’m hoping to change that.
