I strongly suspect that I have ADHD, but I can’t see the benifit of getting diagnosed.

I know that if I get diagnosed and offically have ADHD I can get some medicine but I don’t think I want that in any case.

Can you share your experience and what benifit you got from getting offically diagnosed?

    Formal diagnosis has made little difference to my life. Nothing bad has come from it, but nothing much has changed either.

    I still don’t have meaningful access to medication. Even when I do have medication, all it helps with is maintaining focus. It doesn’t help me initiate things or stay organised, which have been my main barriers.
