Can you imagine needing prescription glasses your entire life and not knowing it? As smart and as talented as you may be, it will be hard to actualize your full potential in life. Getting an adult ADHD diagnosis and treatment can feel like finally getting the prescription glasses that you have always needed.
Many people with ADHD feel like they are constantly bumping their head up against a brick wall in life. The goal of an ADHD diagnosis and treatment is to understand one’s unique brain wiring and manage it successfully. Rather than saying to oneself, “Why am I so lazy, dumb and useless?” with diagnosis and treatment comes the ability to say, “This is part of my ADHD challenge and here’s what I can do to help myself move forward successfully.”
It is very inspiring to watch people find their prescription glasses and start taking big leaps forward.
