I'm in law school- actually, my first year of law school- and I just was diagnosed with ADHD. I'm actually very okay with this news (and talk about it here on my blog), but I have to wonder- how many other ADHD bloggers are out there? I know of two, there has got to be more. Anyone else diagnosed later? How has it affected you in your education, career- essentially, I'm looking for advice in managing the bad parts, dealing with people's perceptions... etc. etc.
Interesting thread. Thanks for posting.
My Dad was diagnosed recently and it answered so many questions. I've never questioned if I have it, but since becoming a blogger and social media whore, I find it difficult to focus most of the time. I feel like I understand a fraction of what people with ADHD must go through. It sucks and I give you so much credit.
I dont have ADHD, but I do have great listening ability, and would love to hear your story through this. It might make a great book someday. Embrace who you are. It might be the best thing you ever did.

I have it. The odd thing about mine is I HAVE to have Mountain Dew. If I have my Dew I'm calm as can be, but if I have a Pepsi, or no Mt Dew, I am literally bouncing off the walls in class.
