Late Diagnosis of ADHD: Seeking Advice on Medications

I was diagnosed as an adult as well. I have tried different meds and they do help somewhat. More recently I've been trying to come to a better understanding of how my brain works and then finding ways to adapt my routine to help me function better at work and at home.

I just turned 39 in May and got my diagnosis last week. I have an appointment to discuss treatment in a couple weeks.

I have known since a kid but only now at 38 have I been on meds. I find they are very helpful in making things more manageable.

48 and diagnosed about 6 weeks ago. I was started on 5 mg of Adderall ER which increased to 10 mg after a week. I'm now on 15mg, but might need to add a smaller IR dose in the afternoon for a little extra push.

The doctor I had as a child suspected that I had ADHD but my mom brushed it off. I only went to a psychiatrist to get diagnosed at 21. I'm on strattera and I think it works so well, but I know that SNRIs aren't for everyone, especially because they have terrible withdrawal effects if you dont take them every day.

I got diagnosed at 24 :)
