Congratulations on your diagnosis! Isn’t that kinda weird? ha ha, that we congratulate each other on our diagnosis, but, after struggling for so long feeling stupid, etc. it really is an achievement, especially with what all we have to go through to find someone to hear us and not dismiss us or misdiagnose us. I’m in the middle of that now, trying to get someone to hear me, so I’m happy for you that you got someone to hear you. Also, I’m learning from every time I read about someone getting diagnosed that a specialist really does seem to be the way to go. It seems that many psychiatrists are trained to see nearly every other psychiatric diagnosis in an adult man or woman before they see ADHD.

Anyhoo, congrats, and I hope you continue to make much progress and have many more revelations come your way.
