This is very good. I was diagnosed with ADHD at the Maudsley hospital in London about 2 years ago. I'm a 58 year old married man with two grown sons. I haven't had no support from my GP and just left to get on with it. It's a relief to have a diagnosis and know what's going on after all these years. My life has been very disruptive. I'm also a recovered alcoholic (AA. 26 years sober) God bless all who is reading this. Russell Barkley is good to watch on YouTube. Regards Shaun 👍❤️🇬🇧
