MODERATORS
I was in the same boat two weeks ago and I looked at youtube videos explaining it. Now I'm sure I have it and I have an appointment for a diagnosis in 3 weeks.
I can highly recommend ADHD Jesse to find out what ADHD is and what it isn't and to learn how different people deal with it as well as anything from HealthygamerGG to understand how it (and a lot of other mental stuff) works.
