    Thank you, Adrian and everyone and Adult ADHD for bringing this video to us. Adrian, I cannot even begin to tell you... Every single thing you said rang true for what I'm going through right now. I have been on meds for about 6 months. Originally prescribed because of severe fatigue, cognitive effects from a brain condition called Chiari Malformation, trouble focusing, etc. Last week, I was officially diagnosed with ADHD by my Neuropsychologist and Family Doctor. I also switched from a short acting medication to a different, long acting medication. The new one works great, is very expensive, is a controlled substance, can be a nightmare to deal with getting every month, and it's like pulling teeth to get my doctor to change dosages or types of meds. This new medication has amazing potential for me, just like you are saying. Yet, I need a higher dose. I already know that. I knew it the second day I took it. It is connecting the right signals in my brain, finally. There is just not enough strength to hold them. If that makes any sense?
    I would love to talk to you more, Adrian. You can find me at -Kathryn Grener Argiro on FB and @Kathryn_Melody_1111 on Instagram
    Good luck on your journey. It sounds like you are on a good path, Adrian. I hope things are still going well since this video was recorded. Peace and Love to you.

      Thank you for your kind words and support. It means a lot to know we are connecting with people- that we are not on our own out there, and motivates us to keep going with the project.

      Hi Kathryn, this is Sally from the channel (the one asking the questions in the background :D ). I don't know where you're based, but if you like, we would be happy to consider a blog post from you about your experience of having ADHD. Please just email info@adultadhd.co.uk if you're interested. :)

    Thank you for this. I've just been diagnosed at 38. It has taken a very long time but now I know why i've struggled for so long. I have my first session with a specialist next week to discuss treatment and i've been given a support worker x

    Am wondering whether to go for an assessment. Have had signs of ADHD since a child. Am 47 now and still struggling. No idea how to get on top of it

      Hi Kirstie, I'm sorry to hear you've struggled for so long. Of course, we can't give medical advice here (even though Adrian is a GP!), but personally, I'd encourage you to give an assessment a go. The first step towards getting on top of it is getting help. :)
