After a suicide attempt and possible bipolar diagnosis that never felt right, I’ve struggled with mood swings and focus issues. Learning about ADHD and feeling stable and focused on Adderall makes me wonder if I was misdiagnosed and should be evaluated.

same thing happened to me. It took several hospitalizations before a doctor finally looked into the root of the issue. They overmedicate to be “safe” and thats the worst you can do. ADHD diagnosis now and life has never been better. 10 years fam
