What Are The Symptoms Of Potential ADHD In Adult?

My wife suspects I have adult ADHD and is begging me to get something to treat it, but I feel I have always been this way. My mother in law agrees with my wife and says I should see a doctor and ask them about Vyvanse. We just moved and our insurance hasn t kicked in with the new job. What should I do?

Hi, thanks for asking.
I can understand your concerns.
In my opinion lots of people have symptoms of ADHD but only if they are severly affecting the functioning of a person, only then that can be diagnosed as ADHD and can be given medications.
I suggest you see a psychiatrist and get yourself assessed if you feel your symptoms are affecting your functioning.
I hope I have helped you
Thank you
