I’m a little confused, I know based on my whole life experiences that I do indeed have ADHD; but I don’t know how I should tell my doctor about it? I mean, it’s disrespectful and yet probably would think I want drugs or something. A little help? Thanks.

Hopefully, your doctor will respond better than mine did. I said. “So, for the past year or so, I’ve been realizing that I probably have ADHD. What are your thoughts on seeking a diagnosis?”
He started with, Well, a LOT of people started thinking they had stuff wrong with them during the pandemic. Then went in to how the drugs are performance enhancers and that ANYONE taking them would function better and then what? You just take them forever to live easier?!? (I’m already taking three pills for unrelated things that I will be taking for the rest of my life.) Then he asked where I worked and I told him what I did (but not that it’s my third job in six years) and he said well, that sounds like you’re doing all right, I wouldn’t worry about it.
I was so pissed that he just blew me off like that.
