Agreed. I was recently (6 months) diagnosed as an adult with ADHD. The experiences of the parent are in line with mine.



Yep, just diagnosed a week ago at age 38. If you did well enough in school, and have the inattentive-type ADHD, it's really easy for it to get missed in childhood.

If you were smart enough to coast through school despite your procrastination and attention issues, definitely go see a psych for an evaluation.
