I will be tunning in tonight. I was diagnosed a month ago with Adult ADHD. My son was diagnosed also. I am very grateful for the diagnosis as a lot of actions both positive and negative are explained. about 12 years ago I advised my doctor that I was suffering anxiety and depression and I was then referred to a clinical psychiatrist who pycoanalylised me with a personality disorder, which I have since been advised is incorrect.
My lack of dopamine and my pursuit of generating it has ruled my life as I have previously said explaining my actions over the last 61 years.
