Could it be ADHD?

By: Sam Milburn
  • Summary

  • Could it be ADHD? My diagnosis journey as a 41 year old female who always thought my impulsivity was my quirk, and my anxiety because I was a bit broken. Could it be ADHD? Could all those red flags actually mean I’m ’normal’ for my brain type? I’ve documented the journey. The thoughts, the feelings and the fears. The meltdown and panic attack the day after the diagnosis. If you’re on the same path I hope this helps you in some way.

  • 07 How some of my ADHD traits show up and how to start the pathway to a diagnosis
    May 27 2024

    In this episode of 'Could it be ADHD?' I dive into a few of the ways that ADHD shows up for me as an adult and the steps you can take to start your pathway to a diagnosis if you feel that's the right course for you.

    ADHD shows up differently for everyone and I'm no expert which is why it's always best to start with a screening test with a professional and have a think about why and how it's effecting your life. There are many conditions out there with similar traits so it's always best to consult an expert.

    To access a free screening test from a reputable provider try ADHD 360 or one of the ADHD registered charities for more information.

  • 05 Post ADHD Assessment
    May 23 2024

    In this episode I talk about my ADHD assessment and all the feels that came with it. I talk about why I get the inattentive diagnosis and I also share a bit about how amazing my husband has been all these years at supporting me without me even realising it!

    After the assessment I was shocked at how I felt. It was tough to accept the diagnosis at first, even though I’d been waiting for it for nearly a year and experienced a heck of a lot of distress just getting here. To the point that I had a panic attack the next day and wrote an impulsive letter to my clinician to DOUBLE CHECK her notes. Was she SURE she got it right?

    So join me as I share my honest thoughts and feelings just a few days post diagnosis.
