I regret not taking my suspicions that I had adhd more seriously.

Ie I suspected I had adhd when I was in my early 20s now that I'm in my mid-late 30s and getting sorted out, I can sometimes daydream about how different my career could have been if I'd been firing in all cylinders the whole time. I don't day dream for very long though, I've got things to do.

I feel that I also do. Curious what route you took to manage or treat the ADHD. I was recently suggested MEMS

My family doctor referred me to a specialist clinic.

Specialist diagnosed me and made some suggestions to me family doctor. Some medications, some counseling some organizational stuff.

The organizational stuff is what really helps but it's just the 'get organized' stuff that everybody recommends. but with the meds I'm actually able to do it.
