I suspect this is a possibility for me but I don't have a diagnosis. I'm at an age and in a country/region where they don't really give you a diagnosis as an adult. They gave me a report with some possibilities. It also included PDA, but nothing official. I think this way the government avoids helping people like me. I have to push the system a lot just to see more specialists, and gave up a long time ago. If I want a proper diagnosis, I would have to see with a private practice.
Strangely, this report but lack of diagnosis allows me to ask my doctor for Concerta. I did at some point but the people at the pharmacy treat you like a drug addict or reseller and it was not worth the hassle.
