Surprise ADHD Diagnosis at 44

Welcome to Awaken ADHD. I was diagnosed with ADHD at 44 years old.
Finding Understanding Through Others' Stories
00:00:09
Speaker
It was a surprise. It was overwhelming. And it forced me to reevaluate my whole life, past, present and future. And the thing that got me through is hearing stories and feeling connected to other individuals that it also faced the same challenges and tears and triumphs and overwhelm. It was the first time I felt really understood.
