Wow, someone else who feels it’s getting worse for them!
ME TOO! 54, fed up, had it, can’t get good help, takes weeks or months, then they want you to wait for an appointment to see ANOTHER one down the line. They said that the last appointment was to decide and start meds – now they’ve changed their tune. There’s even argument over diagnosis, even though the “family doctor” said yes and tried a med, then took me off it, then the next person said yes, was supposed to prescribe a med, but the sleep doctor beat her to it, so the ADHD person wouldn’t prescribe, now the sleep doc has taken me off meds – and the aDHD person still won’t directly deal with it…………….and all i get is a NURSE when I try to call and get things straightened out, and she tells me a different story.
The medical profession down here is in shambles, and getting worse now.
No one in the states knows squat about ADULT ADHD. (stress the adult part)
Ya know what my doctor asked me of all things ? “you’ve lived with it this long all these years, why bother with it now”
I wanted to slug the insensitive jerk!
