I think the best part was after my diagnosis and I told my parents (I was diagnosed as an adult @ 29) they went on a rant about how it wasn't real and my teachers and doctors have been trying to shove pills down my throat since I was a kid. So I guess that was pretty eye opening into why I wasn't diagnosed sooner.
Wow, same for me. I've heard many rants about how they just want to put me on pills. Of course, I didn't get any help in non-medication related ways either
I remember 10 or 15 years ago reading a study about children watching TV and having ad breaks jump in for consecutive 30 second distractions (with exciting toys/products kids get a flood of dopamine seeing) being linked to a rise in it.
Can someone explain what it's like having a dirty room everyday? I'm a clean freak so my house is spotless. I've got a 4 roombas zooming around all day everyday. All my trash....goes in the trash can. But i see people having loads of water bottles on their desk for weeks and it doesn't faze them. I just can't stand filth.

And then promptly get distracted by said random stuff and end up not finishing the job

Either overdiagnosed or it was severly underdiagnosed.

I'm leaning towards underdiagnosed personally

Nostalgia? I'm nearing 40 and all I have to do is switch out "room" with "home office" to make this applicable to me.

Being a clean freak isn't healthy or normal either.

Yes that is true. I just can't help it.
