I got very angry before feeling very down after my diagnosis. Now I’ve accepted it – mainly thanks to getting some medication.

I’m still disappointed with some aspects of what has gone before but those things are part of a bigger picture of feeling unaccepted and unbelieved rather than specific to the ADHD – people around me had never heard of ADHD so there was genuinely nothing they could have done about it.
