I was diagnosed with ADHD last night

Hello Queens,

As the title reads, I found a wonderful black female psychologist who helped me put a name to what I’ve been struggling with through my entire life.

I feel relieved to just KNOW and BE HEARD and CONFIRMED by a trained professional, especially someone who understands social and cultural nuances of being black and a woman. She was also able to point out underlying signs of stress and depression from what I shared about my day to day, and general life habits.

For those of you who were diagnosed as ADHD, and the latter components, what has helped you in life and work? I’m open to all tips and advice because (I like to believe) we’re all in this together. 🫶🏼
