    I spent 2k on a test for my daughter and they just simply said “nope, she’s fine. But she might need some counseling on how to get work done more efficiently.” I’m old school ADD diagnosed and I can absolutely tell she has it.

      Damn, that sucks. Yeah it was called ADD when I was diagnosed as well. It’s all just ADHD now, but there are different presentations as I mentioned above. Also you can have ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder together now, which wasn’t in the DSM prior to like 2014.
