hey guys, i’m an adult who has started looking back at some life patterns, a lot of which are consistent with adhd. i talked to my doctor about it and she said i could get tested if i wanted to, but she didn’t seem super enthused about me going. i’ve had a lot of anxiety things come up within the past year, so i’m wondering if her hesitation had to do with that, or if she just doesn’t think adhd is likely. the main reason i would want a diagnosis is for my own validation, i think, plus any accommodations i might need in the future. does anyone have any thoughts about whether getting a diagnosis is “worth it” if you’re not necessarily looking for medication?
