< A personal realization

~zampano

My ADHD doesn't present traditionally at all, so I wasn't diagnosed until I was in my mid-30s. But suddenly a *lot* of frustrations from my whole life made sense. That said, I also have to be careful assuming that addressing that condition will suddenly make everything better. Sometimes internal change is needed, sometimes external, and it's often very hard to tell the difference.

Yeah, I try really hard to remember that things don't immediately get better. It wasn't the case with therapy or meds so I doubt this will be different. The main reason I want to get a new therapist is because I felt that my last one was no longer helpful in getting me to a place where I could evaluate those changes I needed/wanted.
