    I have been diagnosed as an adult. I suffer from imposter syndrome.

    “Maybe I don’t have ADHD?”

    This is partly what prevents me seeking a diagnosis.

      Honestly, talk to your doctor. Tell them why you think you might have it and why you’re worried you might be imagining it.

      They’ll give you a test, and you’ll be evaluated by someone who is trained to tell if you might have it or not.

      I didn’t ask about it for a long time bc the same reason but life has been so much more manageable now.

        Thank you.

        What has made it more manageable for you, if you don’t mind me asking?
