Honestly, at this point in my life, if I do have ADHD, I've developed enough coping strategies that it is not an impediment. My main concern is for my daughter, but she is on some excellent medication that works well and isn't a scheduled substance and she has accommodations in school, so we're on a good path there.

But I appreciate it, thank you.

I combo the stimulants and non-stimulants. Sometimes I think the non-stimulants help better. It's really a game of trying to find what works best for you, you know! Definitely check out that channel, though. They have some great videos on girls and women with ADHD that your daughter may appreciate. I know when I first figured it out they made me cry haha.
