      Getting adhd diagnosed can be difficult. Symptoms could also be similar to OCD. There’s a lot of overlap

      I used the DONE app and spoke about the manner in which I do things and shared the desired hope of focus on a video call. Was never diagnosed as a child but was evidently doing things backwards. My friends who were diagnosed also pointed out the markers.
