I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult.and there has been an improvement since being treated but there s no cure.I heard it passed down through genitics I believe I believe my dad had it sadly he took his own life but he never knew he had it.The more I find out the more I realise how much it effected my life and others around me.Im worried one of my daughters have it.But I wont say anything to her.She isolates and is a worrier.Like me at her age I don t want her going through what I did.Any advice.?
