I'm a 21 y/o woman. it has been hard trying to find a diagnosis for adhd. I show all the signs, my doctors agree I have it, but everytime I get tested they say that my results don't add up so they won't diagnose me. it is getting frustrating for me. and now they have put me on Strattera for it and it's month 2 on this medicine and I see/show no change whatsoever. I don't know exactly what I'm asking or if I even am asking something but anyway. šŸ˜‚

I don't have any super helpful advice but you aren't alone ā¤ļø
