That is why I think my diagnosis was a double-edged sword. It helped give me a lot of answers and closure to past traumas, but with that knowledge I think it has somewhat held me back from things I have wanted to accomplish. I have used it as a reason as to why I couldn't do something, when the reality is that ADHD wasn't what held me back, but damn was it an easy scapegoat.
- Sakos 5y agoMy diagnosis last year was primarily a way for me to figure out how to deal with it. It gave me a framework to think inside, gave me treatment options (medical and therapeutic) and it gave me hope that my future didn't have to be as disastrous as my past. It was invaluable.
