ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood because students can be evaluated by their caregivers, teachers and providers. Adults who have never been diagnosed as a child, though, should have psychological testing to confirm the diagnosis before they are treated for ADHD with medication.

I have over 30 years' experience assessing and helping treat attention issues. First, we must determine if it is really ADD, or ADD with another issue, or simply another problem that interferes with attention and focus. Then, we design a set of interventions to address the actual underlying problem(s). Unfortunately, I often seen kids and teens who have been medicated for ADD but who don't actually have it. I'm not against medication, just against it if the patient doesn't actually have ADD. One of my articles: https://www.atlantapsych.com/article/addressingattention

I found out I was ADHD at 50. It was a great realization and I've been excited to help so many adults get assessed and work through the grief as well as joy that this diagnosis gives them. Recognizing our diagnosis is so useful for individual and relationship therapy. This knowledge is freeing and also gives us the capacity to answer questions about ourselves that have always been confusing.

ADHD impacts our lives in so many ways, but therapy can help. Together, we can hack your brain to increase motivation. We can find ways to complete tasks that used to take so much energy and effort. We will discover what gets in the way of having the closeness you want in your relationships with others. You can better understand your sensory needs so they don't interfere with the life you want. Lastly, identify ways to rest and relax without feeling guilt.
