I was diagnosed last year at 35. I've tried and failed to launch my own projects since I was 13. I was a classic adhd child, at a time when diagnosis and treatment was rare. Children whose dopamine regulation issues are treated early can leave medication as their brain adjusts while still plastic. In adulthood you're stuck. I've battled addiction, terrible damage to relationships and failure to achieve my full happiness potential. Founding a company is extra hard. I'm glad I'm medicated now. The result has been life changing and profound. The more we talk, treat and exercise compassion about this horrible neurological disorder the better. It isn't like a broken leg or depression, the symptoms are varied and express in complex ways. Thank you to anyone talking about this with kindness and compassion
