Hello,

You need to see an expert in this field as various symptoms overlap in illnesses. When we search our symptom online, it does not pop up question like do you have this symptom as well?

Diagnosing illness is not just making a tick mark on what we have but to rule out what you do not have? Adult ADHD is diagnosed when retrospectively you had such symptoms in childhood.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rohit Kothari
